The design of this new SOB version has evolved and features a bolder treatment than its predecessors. Carter’s hand-worked artistry seamlessly overlaps from slide to frame. The linear, flowing shapes are complemented by the aged patina to create a unique antique style.

Cabot wholeheartedly believes a carry gun can be both beautiful and meticulously engineered yet remain a tried and trusted lifesaver, as dependable as the sunrise. From our trademark aluminum Tristar trigger to the aesthetic and highly functional rhombus checkering on the front strap and mainspring housing, every component is designed for both style and function.  Indeed, our philosophy is that a gun is the sum of its parts and Cabot components are made to precise tolerances that have no peer among 1911s. There’s no doubt, the higher the tolerances, the better a machine works. That principle applies equally to a Rolls-Royce jet engine and a Cabot 1911 pistol.
