OutdoorHub 05.09.13
In recognition of National Police Week, a weeklong tribute honoring law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty, American COP is proud to offer a one-of-a-kind Chambers Custom “Fightin’ Man’s Gun” 1911 .45 ACP Carry Package for the May Gun of the Month Giveaway.
“Functional art is always something to behold, and Joe Chambers’ custom 1911 giveaway gun in the May issue of American COP certainly qualifies,” says Roy Huntington, Publisher of American COP. “I’m a firm believer life is too short to shoot ugly guns, and the happy winner would be missing out if they didn’t carry this magnificent custom 1911 daily! Enjoy it, shoot it, be amazed at how accurate it is and applaud the fact honest craftsmanship isn’t a dying art as many might have you believe. Joe Chambers is young, talented and passionate about his craft and it shows.”
Valued at over $8,500, this giveaway represents a remarkable collaboration effort between skilled craftsmen and industry leaders with a passion to honor police officers, beginning with Joe Chambers of Chambers Customs.
“It is with great pleasure we were able to participate in a collaboration with other fabulous craftsmen to pay tribute to our nation’s police officers,” says Chambers. “The first of its kind from our shop, The ‘Fightin’ Man’s Gun’ is designed as an all-business gun to get you through those tough times with reliability, accuracy and flair to top it all off. We hope our police officers know we care enough to build the very best.”
With dozens of customized features, including a Caspian .45 ACP slide and frame and a Greider match trigger, this gorgeous 1911 is enhanced by striking ebony grips with a “Thin Blue Line” of blue box elder burl from Wicked Grips. For everyday carry, KFS supplied polymer-based Sharkskin grips.
This heirloom-quality set includes an array of spectacular accessories including an elegant horsehide and elephant IWB holster/mag pouch combo from Exodus Gunleather, a CNC-machined Marvel .22 conversion kit, a pair of engraved Smith & Wesson handcuffs, a handcrafted antler pen from Jones Pens, a Lightfoot and HTM Knives 3.5″ tactical folder and custom takedown tools.
