Alchemy Custom Weaponry has unveiled a firearm that is sure to turn heads: a recreation of the "Fat Man," the weapon that symbolically ended World War II in the Pacific. This isn't your average handgun, however. The Fat Man RestoMod is a double stack, .45 caliber pistol with a weight that the company says is comparable to the Statue of Liberty and firepower likened to the Sun.
Originally from the car restoration world, RestoMod is a fusion of "restoration" and "modification,” and it is a testament to Alchemy Custom Weaponry's commitment to blending nostalgic design with modern enhancements. Unlike traditional restorations that seek to restore a car to its original state, restomods enhance performance, safety, and comfort.
The Fat Man RestoMod is a meticulously hand-built pistol featuring a 5-inch barrel, Harrison Retro rear sight, Harrison Retro thumb safety, and a gold bead front sight. Finished in a hard blast DLC, the pistol's standout feature is its double stack magazine, capable of holding either 11+1 or 13+1 rounds of .45 ACP.

Alchemy Custom Weaponry has achieved the extraordinary by making these apocalyptic capabilities available to the average American citizen, albeit in a limited run. Only 25 of these pistols will be produced.
The Fat Man RestoMod boasts several notable features, including a limited edition government size, double stack 1911 chambered in .45 ACP, a hard blast DLC finish, and a hand-fitted frame and slide. The pistol also features FAT MAN Restomod slide and frame markings, Harrison Retro thumb safety, vertical cocking serrations, and a 3.5 to 4.0 lb. trigger pull.

Additional features include a Harrison Design Retro rear sight, gold bead front sight, hand-beveled edges for comfort and style, a hand-fitted match grade 5-inch barrel, and a custom grip module with "Bakelite" color Cerakoted panels. The pistol's hand-polished ignition components ensure an accuracy guarantee of 1.5 inches at 25 yards.
Each Fat Man RestoMod comes with an engraved dog tag certificate of authenticity, two 11-round double stack .45 ACP magazines, and one 13-round (potentially fitting 14 rounds) double stack .45 ACP magazine. This limited edition model has already captured the attention of firearm enthusiasts, selling out swiftly.
