About the Rock Island Armory Pro Match Ultra
The Rock Island Armory Pro Match Ultra is a full-size, match-grade 1911-pattern semi-automatic pistol built by Armscor in the Philippines. This 9mm high-capacity model pairs a 5-inch match barrel with a double-stack 17-round magazine, an adjustable LPA rear sight, fiber-optic front sight, skeletonized hammer, extended beavertail, ambidextrous thumb safety, and a full-length accessory rail. Positioned as Rock Island Armory's top-tier competition 1911, it ships target-ready out of the box at a price well below traditional 2011-platform rivals.
Rock Island Armory traces its roots to Armscor, founded in Manila in 1905, and grew into one of the world's largest makers of 1911-pattern pistols, building Browning's century-old design at value pricing for the global market.
