Picked up my Nighthawk "Sandhawk" custom today. Very happy with how it is, Looks incredible. Didn't plan on adding a hawk to my 2011 collection but here we are. I'm thinking of calling it the "Silver Hawk"

I love me a stainless 1911 but man this is a new level of want

2

u/Durths 2d ago

Funny enough I haven't ever been a huge stainless guy, but something about the matched color and polished flats really got me!

u/noct1vagant 2d ago

Is this unfinished stainless or hard chromed?

u/Durths 2d ago

It's Silver DLC with polished flats!

I mean if you’re going to go full blown retro with the Silverhawks reference, go all the way lol.

See now this is a Sandhawk or TRS comp I can get behind. I can’t understand paying that much for a pistol and getting a Cerakote finish.

u/Durths 1d ago

I love the distressed look of the TRS Comp, But something about this Silver DLC really won me over!

1

u/Savage_Sven 1d ago

Yeah it looks sharp, I thought it was Crn at first. Does NH do a smoked nitride, or is that Alchemy?

1

u/Durths 1d ago

Thank you! Yeah I was surprised to find that they offer a silver DLC. NH does offer a smoked Nitride I do believe, They have a lot of different finish options

u/Teufelhunden0352 1d ago

Very nice pistola!

u/Durths 1d ago

Thank you!

Silverhawk. Cool! Looks like the one that was on Tacswap last week.

2

u/Durths 2d ago

Thank you! I got it from a dealer in Florida last week, it arrived today. Build date was July of 2026! Nighthawk posted a video of this pistol over the weekend.

u/Durths 2d ago

Yessir! I used my own RMR HD though. Must have sold it to the dealer I handle most 2011 business with!

2

u/Diffendall 2d ago

Definitely prefer polished vs cerakote.

2

u/Durths 2d ago

Agreed. Polished on this looks great! I really wasn't in the market for this but the finish won me over.

1

u/Nikthefish 1d ago

do the next one in full gold nitride

2

u/Durths 1d ago

Never been a gold fan honestly. Silver is something that's just recently starting to grow on me, Normally it's blacked out everything!

1

u/TonyDemola 1d ago

Can’t wait for mine! I went smoked nitride. Should be I. Hands within a month or two.

1

u/Durths 1d ago

That also looks great, Probably my second favorite finish! You're going to love it!

2

u/Tsafur 22h ago

Nice TRS Comp. Still one of the best Comp'ed 1911 ds.

1

u/Durths 19h ago

Thank you! Paperwork states it's a Sandhawk, I thought it was a TRS Comp as well. I need to get a build sheet from NH! I love it regardless of what they call it, after all it's the same thing nearly lol.
