A tribute to the Lone-Star State is one that has the potential to be snapped up quickly. The Stainless II Texas Edition is a 500-unit limited edition. And it has all the details a son or daughter of Texas could want, starting at a unique serial prefix TXE. From there, the .45 ACP features high polished flats on the slide, accented with western leaf and scroll engraving, fenced in with a saw-tooth boarder. The 1911 is outfitted with bonded ivory grip panels with the Texas flag set in the state itself on one side and the 1835 motto “Come and Take It” on the other. MSRP: $ 1, 633.
