This review highlights the Ultimate Arms Magna T5 Commander, a 1911-style pistol chambered in .45 ACP. Its key feature is the extensive use of magnesium for the slide and frame, making it approximately 35% lighter than aluminum alternatives. The reviewer notes its standard 1911 controls, combat sights, and pleasant recoil during a shooting demonstration, positioning it as an ideal choice for those seeking a lightweight single-action .45 caliber firearm for carry.
This video introduces the world's first magnesium 1911 pistol developed by Ultimate Arms. The innovative process uses a ZK 6A tool steel hardened magnesium alloy to significantly reduce weight, potentially by up to 60%, bringing the total weight down to as low as 19 ounces. This makes the pistol ideal for concealed carry. The firearm features a Government Model configuration with semi-custom parts, an accessory rail, three-dot non-adjustable sights, and integrated grips with a built-in mag well. A clear coat ceramic finish is applied inside and out for enhanced durability and wear resistance.
