Description
The Nighthawk Custom Counselor is the original member of the Ambassador Series, showcasing a blend of innovative design and practical features tailored for concealed carry. This 9mm Officer Model boasts a 3.5-inch match-grade barrel and is built on a lightweight aluminum frame for ease of carry without sacrificing durability. Both the aluminum mainspring housing and grip safety contribute to its lightweight construction.
The Counselor features a new bobbed-concealment beavertail and hammer, specifically designed for a lower profile to aid in concealed carry. With an 8+1 capacity, this 1911 pistol offers ample firepower in a compact frame. The model’s slide introduces a brand-new design, diverging from the traditional approach of using “negative” serrations. Instead, the Counselor employs “positive” serrations up front, which protrude from the slide, offering shooters a unique look and an excellent grip for press-checking.
A standout feature of the Counselor is its patented Flush-Fit Magwell. This innovative design includes a shorter officer frame with a custom-engineered magwell that slides in from the front, adding back only the length of the frame it removed. This magwell holds the sear spring in place, a groundbreaking feat in the 1911 industry. This thoughtful engineering offers an excellent solution for concealed carry, merging compactness with the convenience of a magwell.
Additionally, the Counselor includes an ultra-high, undercut trigger guard, accommodating most full-size hands on the grip for optimal control. The pistol’s G10 scales, custom-engineered with Railscales, are thinner than any other 1911 grips on the market, providing a comfortable and secure grip.
In summary, the Nighthawk Custom Counselor combines groundbreaking innovations with exceptional functionality, making it a superb choice for shooters who prioritize concealed carry without compromising on performance or design. This pistol embodies Nighthawk Custom’s dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and ingenuity in every aspect.
