SHOT Show is a time for new releases—sometimes so new that the product you're looking at isn't market ready yet. Such is the case with an upcoming European American Armory release (via Tanfoglio): the first ever polymer-framed single-stack 1911. And, before anyone overreacts, the image you're seeing is of a prototype—the final version will be all black (to start). The innovative new 1911 will feature a rail system—allowing you to install any lights or optics you've got in mind—and will be constructed of all the standard 1911 parts you're used to.
