The Rock Island Armory Rock Ultra CS is a compact .45 ACP 1911-style pistol built with a steel frame and black Parkerized finish. Its 3.5-inch button-rifled barrel is supported by a full-length guide rod, while the snag-free profile supports smooth presentation for concealed carry. Gray G10 tactical grips provide a secure, durable interface, and the skeletonized hammer and trigger contribute to the pistol’s performance-oriented configuration. A high-visibility fiber optic front sight pairs with a low-profile adjustable rear sight for fast target acquisition and practical sight correction. The pistol uses an ambidextrous manual safety along with the traditional 1911 grip safety and feeds from a 7-round magazine.
