In celebration of forty years of building the world’s finest custom handguns, we have developed the 40th anniversary set which includes our commemorative Supergrade, EDC X9, Out the Front Knife, and custom challenge coins.

There will only be forty-one box sets available for purchase, exclusively through our select dealers.

Appointed with never before available features, the Fortieth Anniversary Supergrade 1911 in .45 ACP is the centerpiece of the collection. Praised for their exceptional quality and sought for their scarcity, the Supergrade represents our finest work and commitment to our rich history in the refinement of the 1911. This very special Supergrade is adorned with Mammoth Ivory Grips by Dan Chinnock, a silver bead front sight and has been given a high polished Baron blue finish with silver inlays. The word “Supergrade” is inlaid on the right side of the slide, the Wilson Combat logo inlaid behind the right rear cocking serrations, with “40 Years of Tradition” inlaid on the left side.

The fortieth anniversary EDC X9 is representative of the innovative spirit of Wilson Combat. Our latest and most ambitious project to date, the EDC X9 meets the needs of modern shooting applications while maintaining the history and refinement of the classic 1911. This exclusive EDC X9 is the paragon of innovation with its polished stainless slide, gold bead front sight, and gold inlaid markings on the slide. The words “EDC X9” are inlaid by Baron on the right side of the slide, the Wilson Combat logo inlaid on the top, and “40 Years of Innovation” inlaid on the left.

Included in the set is our Out the Front knife by Hogue, representing our commitment to being on the cutting edge of weapon technology. This special knife has polished flats for a unique two-tone look, X-TAC grip pattern as found on our EDC X9, and “Forty Years of Cutting Edge” laser engraved on the blade. Rounding out the collection is our two-piece challenge coin set and our presentation quality, custom fit shadow box.

These pieces are bestowed with other cosmetic and performance options, and this heirloom quality set will be at home in the finest firearm collections for generations.
