Capture the spirit and heroism of the Tuskegee Airmen with this meticulously detailed Auto-Ordnance Winged Warriors Series “Red Tails 1911” pistol, with detailed artwork based on the P-51C Mustang fighter planes flown by these incredibly skilled warriors of the air!

Finished in durable Cerakote, the slide features Cerakote Savage Stainless as its base, masterfully detailed with Cerakote Armor Black to simulate the riveted panels of the iconic Mustang. It proudly displays the specific aircraft markings number “72”, the name “’Ina’ Macon Belle”, and the cool cat design paying tribute to the famous ace that flew this fighter fearlessly into harm’s way! The US Army Air Forces roundel is authentically recreated using Cerakote Navy Blue and Cerakote Snow White. Further fighter-specific details include a bold Cerakote “Red Tails” marking near the rear, and distinctive Cerakote USMC Red and Cerakote Yellow squadron identification banding around the muzzle. Contrasting with the slide, the frame has a complementary Armor Black for controls and accents. The custom engraved hard wood grips feature an inset winged star emblem, echoing the Army Air Forces insignia.

This firearm honors the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen, the highly decorated African American pilots of WWII who broke racial barriers and achieved legendary status escorting bombers in their distinctively marked fighters. This pistol is a remarkable homage, bringing the rugged aesthetic and decorated history of a Red Tails P-51C Mustang to a classic handgun platform with engraving and artwork by the artisans at Altered Arsenal! Chambered in the timeless .45 ACP, this GI style 1911 isn’t just a collector’s piece–it delivers the performance expected from Auto-Ordnance.
