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.

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.
