Bob Marvel worked with several of our Master Gunsmiths to design one of our most unique custom 1911 models. This design involved months of training and preparation. The time was well spent and produced a truly unique model. The defining characteristic of the Bob Marvel is it's two-piece, sleeved bull barrel. This barrel system allows for the maximum lockup while in battery, giving the shooter enhanced accuracy. This model incorporates several other important features, such as the Nighthawk Everlast™ Recoil System, which comes standard with a full length guide rod. This new recoil system allows a shooter to go at least 5,000 rounds before a spring change is necessary. Felt recoil and muzzle flip are also dramatically reduced with this system.
