The Watchtower APACHE brings a modern, competition-grade reinterpretation of the 1911 platform: a full-size, double-stack 1911 chambered in 9mm with a threaded/compensated barrel option, aggressive slide serrations, and an optics-ready slide. Built from 4140/416R steel and finished in Watchtower’s PVD coating, the APACHE is aimed at shooters who want 1911 ergonomics and trigger feel combined with high capacity and practical performance features (compensator, toolless recoil system, ambidextrous controls).

Featuring a full-size double-stack 1911 that combines the classic design and ergonomics of the 1911 platform with a wider grip to accommodate a higher-capacity magazine. Popular in competition and tactical use, it offers enhanced firepower without sacrificing the precision and trigger feel the 1911 is known for.

PVD COATINGS This is what everyone loves about the APACHE and refers to it as “butter.” This coating is highly corrosion resistant against saltwater and rust. The added benefit after long hours of shooting, is that all carbon build up easily wipes away.

RETURN TO ZERO RECOIL The thread-on compensator reduces recoil and muzzle rise by redirecting expanding gases upward and outward through a large port. This helps shooters maintain accuracy during rapid fire. It also creates a fantastic competition companion and improves stability.

ADJUSTABLE TRIGGER PVD-coated, user-adjustable competition flat trigger offers enhanced durability, corrosion resistance, and a smooth finish. Its flat design provides consistent finger placement, while the adjustable features allow users to fine-tune pull weight and travel for optimal performance in competitive shooting.

TACTILE GRIP Added strength without the added weight. The MJD-CFK Nylon Proprietary material made from Carbon Fiber/Kevlar and GF Nylon. Included on the grip is a flared tactical magwell.

AMERICAN MADE Crafted with the highest standards of quality and integrity. Every component reflects our professional gunsmiths' spirit of innovation, hard work, and craftsmanship.
