Description: Rock Island Armory (RIA) / Armscor M1911-A1 full size .45 ACP 1911 pistol. This is a very rare, number one-of-one "One Team Memorial" edition. Created in the memory of the 30 military service members (many of whom were members of the Navy SEAL community) and one military K9 when a CH-47 Chinook helicopter, call sign Extortion 17, was downed in Afghanistan on 8/6/2011. This is a custom one-off and is the only one ever made!! THE HISTORY: On August 6th, 2011, a U.S. CH-47D Chinook military helicopter operating with the call sign Extortion 17 (pronounced "Extortion one-seven") was shot down while transporting a Quick Reaction Force attempting to reinforce a Joint Special Operations Command unit of the 75th Ranger Regiment in the Tangi Valley in Maidan Wardak province, southwest of Kabul, Afghanistan. The resulting crash killed all thirty-eight people and a military working dog on board including seventeen US Navy SEALs, two United States Air Force Pararescue from the 24th Special Tactics Squadron, one United States Air Force Combat Control Team member from the 24th Special Tactics Squadron,[5] one pilot and two crewmen of the United States Army Reserve, one pilot and one crewman of the United States Army National Guard, seven members of the Afghan National Security Forces, and one Afghan interpreter. At 30 American military personnel killed, the shootdown of Extortion 17 represents the greatest single-incident loss of American lives in Operation Enduring Freedom – Afghanistan. THE GUN: The RIA M1911-A1 FS is a great representation of the original US GI combat issue 1911 and is chambered in 45 ACP and built with our exacting engineering standards. Fixed, low profile sights and traditional smooth slim design are perfect for quick pull holster use. A durable parkerized finish gives it a tough, smooth, non-reflective surface. Smooth wood grips offer comfort in both feel and design. The 5" barrel offers a balanced weight to assist with the accuracy and recoil that made the original 1911 design famous. True to all Rock Island 1911s, it comes with a crisp factory 4- to 6-pound trigger for a great experience right out of the box. This custom edition is a commemorative one-off and is the only one ever made! THE CHARITY EVENT: Originally purchased on Sept 5, 2015 at a charity event sponsored by 31Heroes Project (://31heroes) and Seal Future Fund (://sealff/). This one of a kind edition 1911 pistol was designed and ed by them to celebrate the lives of our nation's fallen heroes and to encourage support for military veterans and their families. The 31Heroes Project was established to honor the 30 Americans and a working dog killed in action on August 6, 2011. It assists the families of the men of Extortion 17 as well as veterans and their families whose needs span from casualty assistance and survivor support to PTSD/TBI treatment. Since the 31 Heroes Project's first event in 2011, more than $1.5 million has been raised to help families of the fallen. The SEAL Future Fund provides resources so active duty and veteran Navy SEALs can be successful in civilian life. The event was held on 9/5/15 at the Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach, VA. The was conducted by Echoes of Glory International Military House and product provided by Classic Firearms.
