"Hey, I found this in the remains of some army officer. How much can you pay for it?"

Background
The M1911 pistols in USA always had high acceptance amongst civilians and military alike, more than a hundred years after their initial production. The military were always interested in improving the original design, and throughout time the Alpha Noble became the epitome in engineering an already successful model.

Rechambered in 10mm to allow more stopping power, the optimized inner recoil springs allow the shooter to keep shooting accurately in rapid shooting. The trigger sensitivity is reduced to more comfortable levels, and the inner mechanisms were modernized. It is no surprise only higher-ranking officers use this pistol.

With such a huge amount of improvements over it's original design, the Alpha Noble is not a cheap pistol to craft nor barter.

Overview
Considered an overall balanced 10mm pistol, the Alpha Noble is very sturdy, with a lot of durability. At the same time, it is a pistol with the best damage out of all 10mm-chambered pistols. Also, it has a very fast delay.

With all of these positives, there are a few drawbacks for the Alpha Noble. First, it has a small magazine, composed of only 8 rounds. Second, it has a very small headshot modifier, meaning you won't deal too much damage out of a headshot when compared to other 10mm handguns. Finally, it is very expensive to craft, requiring carbon steel for two parts, and tungsten for another.

Crafting
As stated before, the Alpha Noble requires carbon steel and tungsten, and is very difficult to craft. It is made by combining the following parts:
 * Carbon Steel Slide
 * Carbon Steel Barrel
 * Tungsten Frame
 * Alpha Noble Miscellaneous Parts

Trivia

 * The Alpha Noble is inspired on the real Colt Delta Elite.
 * At update 4.4.1, the Alpha Noble was chambered on .45 ACP. Though it is technically incorrect, the M1911, which is the pistol derived from it, uses this chambering. On update 4.5.1, it finally was corrected to the 10mm caliber.
