Guncrafter Industries Polara
A custom 1911 announced for 2025 and the cover story of GUNS Magazine's March 2025 issue, designed so every surface the shooter touches works better than a standard pistol's. It features a monolithic tri-top slide with the Polara directional serration pattern and a spiral-fluted bull barrel. Contrasting TiN (gold) barrel and controls come standard over a stainless or black finish.
