Nighthawk Kestrel

[BigPimping]

I just saw this thing on the website and it is super duper cool. I wonder if our fearless leader had any input in designing it? I wonder if it is an homage to him? Whether or not it is, I seriously want one. But it's probably not legal here in this communist state.

They made sure to put "Not available in California" front and center of the webpage.

Wait, you just called a 1911 "super, duper cool". What are your "block" fan bois going to say when they find out you like 1911's.

Given the "Nighthawk" branding, this is a far more likely association with the word "kestrel"....

I would only buy one if it came in Government size.. other than that, I want one.

I’d hit it. They do know how to do a slide. Bare. With minimal logo behind serrations.

Different spelling, but who's counting...

Beautiful! Throw some ball cuts and it's perfect 😎

[Kestryll]

Beautiful! And it's a Commander!

Very nice. I would take a stainless one in 9mm if I come across one. They will get here eventually.

He found out that $3000+ 1911's really are fun to shoot. Can't argue with that. A glock is a good carpenters hammer, a Nighthawk is as fine as a handmade pocketwatch.

I dunno how much I would like that thin grip....it sure looks skinny

No they don't!

One of the most awkward things about my GRP is just how gigantic the lettering is.

I really like our GRP Recon; it is one of the finest 1911's I have ever used. I'm sure that anything they are producing will be of the utmost quality.
I don't mind the large "GRP" emblem on the slide.
Can't wait to get the Talon.

Was only referring to the firearm the thread was created over. And yes- the GRP slide is pretty damn ugly.
