Nighthawk initially designed the T3 to allow users to pack the powerful .45 ACP into a small package; Nighthawk eventually released the T3 in 9mm. A 4.25" bushing barrel allows field strip anywhere, and keeps the weight down when compared to pistols of comparable size with tapered cone barrels. Already loaded with options, it's quite likely that even the most discerning 1911 enthusiasts will be pleased with the existing features of the T3.
Nighthawk's T3 stainless model appeals to shooters who prefer the looks of a stainless gun. Immediately apparent is the level of hand polishing on the frame and slide. Rather than bead blast the frame and polish the slide the way so many others do, the Stainless T3 is meticulously hand polished to a velvety sheen. The slide and frame sides are polished to fine satin luster.
When it comes time to choose your everyday carry gun, there is a lot to consider. You need something that is reliable, accurate, and easy to wear all day. You need something that you can enjoy shooting a lot, because there is no substitute for practice. That's where the T3 comes in. We designed this pistol to be pleasing to the eye, but also to be a workhorse that can stand up to thousands and thousands of rounds.
The T3 has the best features for any gun its size. The frame is based on the Officer model, but for those with large hands, it features an extended magazine well that gives you the length you need to get all your fingers on the grip. The extension also serves another function. The hand-cut geometric angles really add to the looks as well. The slide is a 4.25" Commander length that affords a better sight radius.
Another consideration is weight. The T3 actually weighs one ounce lighter than most officer size 1911s. This makes the T3 the first choice for an all-day carry pistol.
Heinie Slant-Pro Straight Eights Night Sights are standard. The mainspring housing, as well as the rear of the slide, are horizontally serrated to match. This feature also helps prevent snags on silk lined jackets and coats that checkering often causes. The top of the slide is also serrated to reduce glare. A Nighthawk Custom© lightweight aluminum trigger that has been blacked-out using Perma Kote™ breaks between 3.5 and 4 lbs with no creep. When you put all of these features in one package, you come up with the finest carry gun you can own. All you add is practice.
