Wilson Combat needs little introduction. For over 20 years Bill Wilson has perfected the art of hand fitting the finest machined parts to the tightest tolerances to create the most reliable and accurate 1911 style pistols in this country. Here we have arrived at an early Wilson Combat Supergrade, the first edition of the Classic Supergrade - Wilson Combat's premier full size 1911.

"No restrictions are placed on the time, effort, and expertise expended in the creation of our ultimate pistol -- the Classic Supergrade. Only our most experienced veteran pistolsmiths apply their skilled trade to build a Supergrade, and this select group brings over 50 years of pistolsmithing experience to the Supergrade workbench. An extremely limited number of these pistols are hand built each month, making the Supergrade an instant collector’s piece. The Supergrade is the 1911 to which all others -- from any source -- are compared. Simply the BEST of the BEST!" - Wilson Combat.
It is rare to find a 1998 Wilson Combat Supergrade in this great condition. The photos of this gun on this listing show it's current state, and although it already looks flawless, we have sent this gun into Wilson to get some minor refurbishing; the mark near the slide stop removed, a new slide stop installed, and the front Tritium sight and the rear low mount adjustable Tritium sight replaced. Finally, this gun will have a new gun test target to confirm accuracy. This Supergrade comes with a mirror++ bore, excellent matte bead blast stainless steel frame, and a perfect black Armor Tuff finish and once it is restored, this gun will be as good as new!

• Full-Size Stainless Steel Frame
• High Cut Checkered Frontstrap

Many clients have asked me why they should spend the money on a Wilson Combat custom-built gun when they could buy a “cookie cutter” production gun for less money.  The answer is simple and multi-faceted.  First, when it comes to protecting your loved ones or yourself, only the best will do.  If the time ever comes that you need a handgun for defensive purposes, don’t you want the best?  I think so.  Even practice and competitive shooting is more rewarding with a highly accurate and reliable gun.  And then there is the Wilson Combat “FOREVER WARRANTY” that guarantees your Wilson handgun will always be within factory specs.  Wilson Combat handguns hold their value and are highly desirable, making your purchase an asset that does not fade over time.  Thanks for looking!
