SK Customs Unveils Limited-Edition Lady of Guadalupe Colt 1911

HAYMARKET, Va. November 9, 2023 — SK Customs®, the Nation’s only series driven, limited edition manufacturer of custom firearms, is proud to celebrate their annual Gun of the Year with the limited-edition Colt 1911 chambered in .38 Super, Lady of Guadalupe. This extraordinary firearm pays homage to the cultural and religious significance of the miraculous appearances of the Virgin Mary to Juan Diego in 1531.

With only 300 units available, the Lady of Guadalupe firearm is a true collector's item. Its royal blue polished finish captures the essence of the Virgin Mary's apparitions, while the slide showcases intricate illustrations of the roses she presented to Juan Diego. The rear panels of the gun depict St. Juan Diego and the Crescent moon, adorned with stars and special edition number in 24k Gold.

"SK Customs is dedicated to creating firearms that not only exemplify exceptional quality but also honor cultural and historical milestones," said Simon Khiabani, owner and founder of SK Customs. "The limited-edition Lady of Guadalupe Colt 1911 is a testament to our commitment to excellence and reverence for the Virgin Mary's apparitions."

The top of the slide features a stunning portrayal of Our Lady Guadalupe accompanied by an angel. The 24k Gold stars strewn across her mantle symbolize her greatness surpassing the stars in the sky, which were once worshiped as gods by the Aztecs. This image also represents her historical significance during the Mexican War of Independence and the Great Revolution of 1910.

SK Customs has meticulously polished every detail, from the frame and slide to the barrel and hardware. Completing the masterpiece are Kirinite® grips, matching the 24k Gold stars and the gold emblem of the iconic Rampant Colt.

SK Customs takes immense pride in crafting firearms that not only exemplify exceptional quality, but also celebrate cultural and historical milestones. The limited-edition Lady of Guadalupe Colt 1911 is a testament to their commitment to excellence and reverence for the Virgin Mary's apparitions.
