Tactical Elite
We all want to avoid life and death encounters – but if you are unfortunate enough to find yourself in one – you don’t want to have to worry about the performance of your firearm. With all the combat proven features of a typical CQB, the Tactical Elite provides the additional advantage of a fully supported hand-fit, heavy flanged cone match grade barrel. The extra weight of the heavier-than-standard barrel gives the shooter softer recoil and faster recovery time between shots. Possibly the easiest .45ACP pistol to shoot well in today’s market, it is the highest performance self defense pistol available. When nothing less than 100% functional reliability, fast handling, rapid shot-to-shot recovery and accuracy is demanded, you want to have a Wilson Combat® Tactical Elite On Your Side®.
