Description
There’s something unmistakable about a full-stainless Korth PRS when you see it in person. The balance, the machining, the quiet confidence in the way every edge and contour is executed, it’s the kind of pistol that doesn’t need embellishment to command attention. This 5” .45 ACP example is a perfect expression of that philosophy: precision engineering presented in its purest, most refined form.
Built entirely from stainless steel, the pistol showcases Korth’s obsessive approach to fit and finish. The matte stainless surfaces are flawlessly executed, offering a clean, satin sheen that highlights the sculpted lines of the slide and frame without unnecessary glare. Signature Korth checkering panels at the front and rear of the slide provide both visual contrast and functional texture, reinforcing the pistol’s performance pedigree while maintaining its gallery-worthy aesthetic.
The 5-inch configuration gives the PRS its ideal proportions, long enough to emphasize sight radius and mechanical harmony, yet balanced perfectly in the hand. The match barrel, chambered in .45 ACP, speaks to the platform’s performance roots, designed for exceptional accuracy and controlled recoil impulse within the all-steel frame.
Ergonomically, the pistol is pure Korth. The sculpted beavertail, undercut trigger guard, and precision-machined controls flow seamlessly into the frame. The ventilated, textured grip panels provide a striking visual counterpoint to the stainless finish while delivering confident purchase. Every surface transition, from the trigger shoe to the ambidextrous safeties, reflects hand-fitted attention to detail.
Up front, the heavy dust cover and integrated accessory rail add both visual mass and functional versatility, while the fitted compensator enhances the pistol’s commanding profile. The result is a silhouette that feels equal parts competition machine and mechanical sculpture.
As expected from Korth, the pistol is accompanied by its factory presentation case and accessories, all properly matched to the firearm. From the documentation to the included components, the set remains cohesive and collector-correct, exactly what discerning enthusiasts look for in a high-end German Mastershop build.
In every respect, this Korth PRS Stainless 5” .45 ACP represents the intersection of precision engineering and understated luxury, a modern performance pistol elevated to the level of fine industrial art.
