A Korth PRS 1911 in .45 ACP with the German maker's 5 inch compensated configuration. Features a raised dimple slide pattern, integral compensator, and red-and-black scaled G10 grips.
Korth is a name most people attach to revolvers, the kind that cost more than a used car and earn every dollar. So a 1911 wearing the Korth roll mark gets your attention right away, and the PRS in .45 ACP rewards the second look. This is the 5 inch configuration, built in Lollar, Germany, and it shows the kind of hand fitting that Korth puts its name to.
Start with the slide. Those dimpled cocking serrations are pure Korth, a raised golf ball pattern front and rear that you won't mistake for anything else on the market. The deep matte black runs across slide and frame, broken only by the bright polish on the slide flats and the bare steel along the slide stop and grip safety pin. The frame carries the full Waffenfabrik Korth Germany roll mark, with the .45 Auto caliber stamp and CIP proofs visible at the chamber.
The controls read like a competition spec sheet. Skeletonized trigger, extended beavertail with a memory bump, an ambidextrous thumb safety, and a checkered mainspring housing that matches the front strap. Up front sits Korth's integral compensator, machined as part of the dust cover and barrel system, with a full accessory rail underneath. An adjustable LPA rear sight pairs with a serrated front blade.
The red and black G10 grips are the piece everyone notices first. The scaled, snake-skin texture catches light in a way the rest of the pistol does not, and the color breaks up an otherwise all black build without tipping into loud.
It comes complete in the Korth presentation case with the German manual, the branded keychain, and the factory hang tag noting the 5 inch barrel and .45 ACP chambering. For a collector who already has the Korth revolvers and wants the pistol to sit beside them, this is the one to chase.
