Custom Donald Trump 1911 built by Jesse James

Jesse James brought something special to his booth for SHOT Show, a custom 1911 in honor of Donald Trump.

“I build cool guns. So, it’s like, I’m going to build a presidential gun,” he said in an interview. “Donald Trump’s kind of old school, like 1970s, you know, New York City rich guy. So, a little bit of gold, a little bit of decorative filigree work.”

There’s definitely a Trump-level of gold and prestige on this pistol. Just take a closer look here,

The Grandmaster X 1911 in .45 ACP is one of Jesse’s largest models. To make a true .45 in honor of 45, he added a 2″ comp to the existing 7″ long barrel then detailed the slide with the words “Donald Trump” and “The 45th President, United States of America.”

“It’s kind of like, a modern Dirty Harry gun,” James explained. “He’s kind of bigger than life, I think. So he needs a bigger than life pistol.”

James says he hasn’t spoken with his old friend about the pistol yet, but plans to visit the White House soon to present it to him.
