The Rock Island TCM Standard MS 22TCM (51963) delivers compact firepower in a 1911 format built to handle the high-speed, low-recoil 22TCM cartridge. Engineered for speed and energy transfer, this round delivers magnum-like performance from a semi-auto platform.
This pistol features a 4.3-inch barrel, ideal for carry or tight-range engagements while maintaining ballistic effectiveness. The forged steel frame and slide are finished in parkerized matte black, offering durability and tactical appeal. The double-stack grip frame enhances capacity without sacrificing control, and G10 grips or textured polymer panels ensure a firm hold under pressure.
Equipped with a skeletonized hammer and trigger, the TCM MS includes a Series 70-style fire control system, low-profile adjustable rear sight, and a fiber optic front sight for rapid target acquisition.
With its lightweight recoil and blistering speed, the TCM Standard MS is a unique blend of modern ballistics and time-tested 1911 ergonomics.
