John Wayne, also known as The Duke, embodied the spirit of true American grit, individualism, and bravery both on and off screen. From the sands of the American West, to the Sands of Iwo Jima, John Wayne captured hearts worldwide. To help continue The Duke's legacy, Air Venturi is proud to announce the Officially Licensed John Wayne Commemorative 1911 CO2 air pistol.
The infamous Colt 1911 was first carried by American servicemen from 1911 during the Philippine–American War and is still in use today as the M45 MEU(SOC) pistol, which is issued to the special operations component of Marine Expeditionary Units. Recognizing the appeal of this historic weapon, Air Venturi, has faithfully adapted the 1911 for use with .177 caliber ammo and CO2, while still being able to maintain the look and feel of its firearm counterpart.
Featuring John Wayne's signature emblazoned across its sturdy metal slide and a finish resembling years of use on the battlefield, the John Wayne 1911 is the ultimate collectors item for those looking for John Wayne tribute memorabilia, with a WWII era feel.
