1911 Build Kit

1911 Build Kit

Until recently, owning a top-tier 1911 was prohibitively expensive – we broke that barrier to owning America’s greatest pistol with the 1911 build kit. This innovative and unique kit affords you, the at-home gun builder, the opportunity to own a caliber of 1911 that competes with some of the finest available on the market for a fraction of the price.

State Laws May Vary

Contrary to federal law, some states have either restricted or banned the sale, transfer, and ownership of 80% lowers, firearm blanks, and other gun parts. Because of these restrictions, we cannot ship our products to certain states. Please confirm whether your state is restricted on our Shipping & Return Policy before placing an order. We cannot fulfill orders to restricted states if placed.

The 1911 Parts Kit

Each 1911 kit includes quality components for assembling an 80% frame or stripped 1911 frame. Please see each kit's product page for a specific list of included components and specifications.
