1. An easy way to make your single-stack more capacious, the 10-Round .45 ACP Power Mag 1911 Magazine from Chip McCormick Custom features dual-walled, roll-formed feed lips for greater durability. Its proprietary follower enhances dependable feeding of hollowpoints as well as troublesome semi-wadcutters, while the super-strong, heat-treated spring further aids overall reliability. Verifying magazine capacity is quick, thanks to easy-to-read numbers with corresponding witness holes. MSRP: $42.95; cmproducts.com
2. Designed to fit full-size 1911s with standard grip-screw bushings, Magpul MOE 1911 Grip Panels are built from heavy-duty, reinforced polymer and offer myriad practical features including a unique, diamond-shaped cross section to prevent twisting in the hand, an aggressive magazine release cut-out and an effective anti-slip texture. They are compatible with ambidextrous safeties, and available colors include black, olive green and stealth gray. MSRP: $19.95; magpul.com
3. The Nighthawk Custom Drop-In Trigger System (DTS) gives your 1911 a professional trigger job without special tools or a trip to the gunsmith. Designed to be installed with drop-in ease, the self-contained, monolithic DTS features fully machined, stainless steel internal components and is intended to replace a gun’s existing hammer, hammer strut, disconnector and sear spring. A single-leg grip-safety spring is included with the DTS and is swapped with the original sear spring. MSRP: $299.99; nighthawkcustom.com
4. Wilson Combat’s One-Piece Bulletproof Magwell provides users with a textured mainspring housing combined with an enlarged and funneled magazine well opening that facilitates faster and smoother reloads. Smoothly radiused contours make this an ideal accessory for both competition and concealed-carry pistols. Its precision 30-lpi checkering matches the quality of many custom handguns while still preventing it from catching or snagging on clothing. MSRP: $169.95; wilsoncombat.com
5. XS Sights’ DXW Big Dot Sights for the Colt 1911 feature a bright-white, easy-to-see, .188-inch-diameter ring surrounding a tritium dot paired with a shallow, V-shaped rear aperture. That aperture provides enhanced visibility of the front sight. The high-visibility bar or stripe combined with the snag-free, low-profile design creates a wide field-of-view when teamed with the tritium dot in the front—forming a quick, instinctive “dot-the-i”-style flash sight picture when seconds count. Minor gunsmithing is required for installation. MSRP: $104; xssights.com
