If you’re looking for a handsome new handgun, consider Ruger’s eye-catching, engraved 1911-type pistols, marketed as the SR1911 “Street Edition” series. This series of five engraved models of the SR1911 pistol celebrates Ruger’s rich manufacturing heritage.
These lightweight Commander-style pistols are chambered for the .45 Auto (.45 ACP) and feature a 4.25″ stainless steel barrel. The stainless steel slide is engraved in fine detail and also includes the Ruger logo. These pistols feature an aluminum frame and titanium firing pin. Drift adjustable, Novak 3-Dot sights allow for quick and easy target acquisition.
The first of the “Street Edition” series (shown above) was introduced in October 2024 and commemorated Ruger’s 75th anniversary. The next four “Street Edition” SR1911s have common design elements that connect the series. Each pistol represents its own Ruger facility – “1 Lacey Place” in Southport, CT; “411 Sunapee St.” in Newport, NH; “271 Cardwell Rd.” in Mayodan, NC; and “200 Ruger Rd.” in Prescott, AZ. Each one of the series will feature a unique grip color, and the facility street name will be engraved on the top of the slide. Production will be limited to 500 of each model.

— Traditional 1911 design with finely engraved stainless steel slide.
