The M1911 was the standard sidearm of United States forces during the Second World War, including the soldiers who landed on the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. The G&G GPM1911 D-Day Limited Version commemorates those operations with a special gold and silver finish applied across the slide and grip, ornate engraved detailing on both sides of the slide, and presentation in a hardwood commemorative case with soft interior, purpose-cut recesses for the pistol and seven dummy rounds.
It is both a fully functional GBB pistol and a collector's piece. The 1911's internal platform is unchanged from the standard GPM1911 — Whirl Cylinder Technology for reduced frost buildup, adjustable hop-up, full metal construction, gas blowback action with heavy slide recoil — but the external finish and presentation elevate it well beyond standard production. A piece with this finish and case sits as comfortably on a shelf as it does in a holster.
The D-Day edition is a limited production run. Units are not manufactured continuously — once the allocation is gone, the edition is finished.
