Reverie; noun: a state of being pleasantly lost in one’s thoughts; a daydream. It is with this term we present a boutique offering of ten hand-engraved Cabot 1911s.
Holding Reverie illustrates that concept with a pistol that transcends the ordinary and invites you to lose yourself in a daydream of its intricate beauty. Conjured from a block of stainless steel, the Cabot Guns Reverie embodies the quality of both a precision instrument and of American craftsmanship in the form of a 1911-style pistol. Reverie features meticulously hand-engraved designs by renowned FEGA Emerging Artist-award winner (2023), Richard Quecke, who recently completed another stunning Cabot project, one which fuses Damascus steel and engraving called the Damascus Dragons—a stunning development in the art of gunmaking.
As you gaze upon the Reverie, you are drawn into the three-dimensional curvilinear dreamscape that adorns the pistol. Fine shading and dark contrasts present both a spatial and tactile experience. Quecke develops these with fast movement, creating a visual flow from flats to rounds, harmonized with selective finishing techniques. The traditional slide serrations are replaced with distinctive deep-cut CG logos, adding a touch of modern elegance to this timeless piece. Flawlessly matched grips are crafted from solid, hand-engraved stainless steel, adding significant heft in the hand adding some 0.7 pounds of mass. But these grips aren’t just for looks. They provide both a reassuring sense of substance in the hand while at the same time work in concert to deliver a tangible decrease in felt recoil for the shooter.
Cabot’s trademark Tri-Star trigger is a hallmark of Cabot design created with the precision and craftsmanship that further define the Reverie as worthy of the Cabot name. The slide top features a series of precisely milled serrations, reducing glare and creating a seamless connection between the blacked-out U-notch rear sight and the golden “disco ball” front sight. This design element not only enhances functionality but also symbolizes the journey from darkness to light, much like a daydream that leads you to a place of clarity and inspiration.
The Cabot Guns Reverie; an invitation to enter a state of pleasant contemplation, where every detail—down to the safety, slide stop, and barrel bushing—combines to tell a story, and every glance reveals a new layer of artistry. Let yourself be captivated by the Reverie and experience the perfect blend of form and function in a firearm that is truly a dream come true.
