Defending your home from life-threatening invaders requires a serious tool that won’t let you down in the heat of the moment. If that time should come, make sure you’re ready and properly equipped.
Here are a few 1911s for home defense on which you can depend.
This one's a great option if you’re interested in having caliber diversity. This combo model allows you to use 22TCM or the drop-in 9mm barrel. It's a great option for plinking on the range, and the 17+1 capacity adds extra value as a home-defense option.
If you want something with a history of proven firepower, the TAC Ultra FS in 45ACP is right up your alley. Best of all, you can pack in 14 rounds instead of just eight. Mount a flashlight to the accessory rail to top it off for home defense.
