Description
Some guns announce themselves. This Korth PRS .45 ACP (4-inch) doesn’t shout, it simply commands attention. Right away you notice the two-tone look: a bright stainless slide and back frame balanced by a sober matte lower. It’s bold without trying too hard, like a suit with just the right pocket square.
Under the surface it’s pure Korth: fit so tight it almost feels respectful, a single-action trigger that breaks clean and true, and cycling so smooth you forget about the mechanics and just enjoy the shot. The 4-inch barrel gives you a sweet spot between sight radius and handling, stable on the bench, nimble in a controlled carry setup. It’s the kind of balance engineers dream about and craftsmen actually build.
Ergonomics matter here. The grip geometry feels like it was carved around your hand: natural, secure, and comfortable for long strings. Recoil is managed well, the overall weight and Korth’s design keep follow-ups civilized, even with stout .45 loads. It’s performance that looks good doing it.
This example comes with a wood Korth display box—not some cheap cardboard afterthought—and the factory test target, proof that the pistol left the shop dialed in. Those little details matter to collectors and shooters alike.
Whether you’re rounding out a high-end collection or buying a pistol you’ll actually shoot, this PRS sits at that rare crossroad of art and engineering. It’s refined, restrained, and relentless in its execution. In short: it’s the kind of pistol you keep for the long haul. Pick your spot, line it up, and enjoy something made the right way.
