Introducing the Demolitia Blackout Edition
Watchtower Firearms has joined forces with the popular Demolition Ranch brand to create the Demolitia Blackout Edition, an exclusive limited-production variant of their double-stack 1911 platform. This tactical pistol is specifically engineered to deliver exceptional reliability and performance under demanding operational conditions.

Key Features and Specifications
Caliber and Performance
The Demolitia Blackout Edition is chambered in 9x19mm, providing shooters with a proven cartridge known for its versatility and availability. The pistol incorporates a ported, match-grade barrel system paired with adjustable internal components, ensuring consistent shot placement and enabling rapid target transitions.
Optical and Sighting Systems
This model comes equipped with an optic-ready slide configuration, allowing users to mount their preferred red dot or reflex sight. For those preferring traditional iron sights, the pistol features a high-visibility fiber optic front sight that enhances target acquisition in various lighting conditions.

Advanced Coating Technology
The entire firearm receives a comprehensive graphite PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating treatment. This specialized finish provides superior protection against corrosion and saltwater exposure, making it an ideal choice for shooters operating in challenging coastal or humid environments while maintaining tactical discretion.
Engineering Excellence
Double-Stack Design Benefits
The ported double-stack configuration represents advanced engineering focused on three critical performance areas: enhanced accuracy through improved barrel harmonics, significant recoil reduction for faster follow-up shots, and superior weapon control during rapid-fire sequences.
Industry Commentary
Jordan Davis, Chief Growth Officer at Watchtower Firearms, emphasized the collaboration's significance: "We built the DEMOLITIA Blackout Edition for shooters who want cutting-edge performance and uncompromising stealth in a package that stands out. From the collaboration with Demolition Ranch to the meticulous design and engineering, this pistol delivers on every front."

Availability and Pricing
Cost and Distribution
The Demolitia Blackout Edition carries an MSRP of $4,499, with the optical sight sold separately. This premium pricing reflects the specialized manufacturing processes and limited production run nature of this collaborative effort.
