The design allows pistols to be carried with a round in the chamber, because dropping the pistol on its muzzle would not move the firing pin forward to strike the primer.

The Series 80 system incorporates a spring-loaded plunger into the slide that prevents the firing pin from moving forward unless the trigger is depressed. Like all Remington 1911 pistols, the AAC 1911 incorporates what many call the “Series 80” firing pin safety, named after what Colt referred to this system as when it first was released. The AAC 1911 locking system is the conventional Browning design that uses a swinging link to attach the barrel block to the pistol’s frame via the slide stop pin and the standard recoil spring guide rod that allows disassembly without tools. It is shipped in a sturdy, foam-lined case with slots custom cut for the pistol, magazines, cleaning rod and Ti-RANT.
The AAC 1911 is a full-size pistol made from a forged carbon steel slide and cast frame. AcuSport explains that this is the first time that a pistol and suppressor have been sold together, and it will likely appeal to the collector market.ĭigging Deeper The AAC Remington R1 features a threaded barrel for easy suppressor attachment. 45 suppressor are only available as a complete package sold by distributor AcuSport to Class III dealers. That pistol was a custom gun with a much higher MSRP, while the current offering is more affordable but still has features that appeal to suppressor users. The AAC 1911 is AAC’s second branded pistol, following a 1911 made several years ago by Nighthawk Custom. The AAC 1911 comes in a Pelican plastic case with custom cut foam interior to fit the pistol, suppressor, extra magazines and tools. The AAC 1911 has gray VZ “Grenade” AAC logo grips, and the slide is prominently laser engraved with “Advanced Armament Corp” on the left and has a light etching of the AAC “skull and crossed guns” logo on the right. However, the grips and markings are distinct from the Remington variant. The AAC 1911 is nearly identical to the 1911 R1 Enhanced Threaded Barrel. AAC is one of a stable of firearms and accessory companies owned by Freedom Group, which also owns the Remington, Bushmaster, Para-Ordnance and Marlin brands. The pistol tested for this article is a limited-edition, branded R1 made for Advanced Armament Corp. Since then, the Remington 1911 line, the production of which will move later this year from Ilion to Huntsville, Alabama, has grown to include five models, including the most specialized model-the 1911 R1 Enhanced Threaded Barrel. In 2010, seventy years after the company made its first 1911 in Ilion, New York, Remington Arms restarted production of the classic Model 1911.
