Wilson Combat CQB Elite 45 ACP 5 Black Overview
The CQB Elite takes Wilson’s legendary CQB fighting pistol and adds premium carry touches. It has a high-cut checkered frontstrap, a high-ride Bullet Proof beavertail grip safety, a Bullet Proof Tactical thumb safety, a Bullet Proof magazine well and magazine release, front cocking serrations and G10 diagonal flat-bottom grips. The Battlesight rear is paired with a fiber optic front, and the crisp trigger breaks between 3.5 and 4.5 pounds. Every Wilson is hand fitted by a gunsmith in Berryville, Arkansas, and the pistol weighs about 41 ounces.
Why Wilson Combat
Wilson Combat pistols are built for reliability and accuracy first, with tight hand fitting, proprietary Bullet Proof parts and test firing before they ship. They hold their value well and are a lifetime investment.
Armor-Tuff Finish
Armor-Tuff is Wilson’s durable, corrosion-resistant finish. It holds up well to holster wear and sweat, and it cleans easily with standard solvents.
Practice and Training
Regular practice builds confidence and safe handling. Start at close range, focus on sight alignment and a smooth trigger press, and work back as your groups tighten. Dry fire with snap caps at home to improve your trigger control between range trips.
Choosing Ammunition
Try several brands and bullet weights to see what feeds reliably and groups best in your handgun. Use quality full metal jacket loads for practice and proven hollow points for defense, and confirm reliable function with your defensive load before carrying it.
Care and Maintenance
Clean the barrel, slide or cylinder and frame after shooting, apply a light coat of quality lubricant to moving parts, and store the handgun unloaded in a locked case or safe away from children.
Safe Storage
Store handguns unloaded in a locked safe, lockbox or with a cable lock, and keep ammunition separate when children are in the home. Quick access safes keep a defensive handgun secure but available. Teach everyone in the household basic firearm safety rules.
Recommended Accessories
A quality holster, spare magazines, eye and ear protection and a cleaning kit round out any handgun purchase. For defensive use, add a weapon light and practice drawing safely from your holster with an unloaded gun before carrying.
