The RO Elite features premium upgrades in the popular 10mm caliber for shooters interested in competition, hunting or personal defense. It features a 5-inch forged match grade stainless steel barrel with a fully supported chamber and a forged steel frame and slide that are precision-fit for fluid-smooth function. Coated in Black-T, this highly corrosion resistant self-lubricating treatment is built to withstand the most punishing conditions, and is the same treatment specified on Springfield Armory 1911s built for the FBI’s SWAT and Hostage Rescue Teams. Equipped with an 18.5 lb. recoil spring, the RO Elite 10mm is well-balanced and soft shooting, taming the power of the hottest 10mm loads. A Picatinny rail allows operators to attach accessories, and slanted serrations on the front and the rear of the slide encourage easy manipulation of the slide.

There was a day when the 10mm earned a reputation for punishing recoil and cracked frames. Thankfully, those days are over. The Range Officer® Elite is built on a forged frame and slide and features an upgraded Cerakote® finish, G10 grips, and ambi safety. The 5″ stainless steel match-grade barrel delivers on-target rounds with repeatable precision.

The Range Officer Elite is ready for the range or defensive applications and sports an accessory rail for the mounting of lights and lasers.
