Bersa B1911 Onyx .45 ACP Full Size 8+1 5" Barrel Ambidextrous

The Bersa B1911 Onyx delivers traditional 1911 reliability with modern manufacturing precision at an accessible price point. This full-size .45 ACP combines classic design elements with contemporary features that competitive shooters and tactical professionals demand.

What Makes This Different

The B1911 Onyx features a stainless steel barrel paired with a black serrated steel slide for enhanced durability and reduced glare. The black stainless steel frame incorporates an integrated beavertail grip safety for consistent hand placement and improved control. Gray VZ grips provide superior texture compared to standard plastic grips, while ambidextrous controls accommodate both left and right-handed shooters without modification.

Key Features

• Ambidextrous thumb safety and slide release for versatile operation
• 5-inch stainless steel barrel with match-grade accuracy potential
• Black serrated steel slide reduces glare and provides positive manipulation
• Integrated beavertail grip safety prevents accidental discharge
• Gray VZ grips offer enhanced texture and moisture resistance
• 8+1 capacity with standard .45 ACP magazines
• Black stainless steel frame resists corrosion and wear

Range performance centers on the 5-inch barrel's ability to maximize .45 ACP ballistics while maintaining manageable recoil through the full-size frame's weight distribution. The serrated slide top reduces muzzle flash reflection during low-light shooting scenarios. Competitive shooters benefit from the crisp single-action trigger and consistent lockup, while the ambidextrous controls eliminate the need for specialized left-handed variants.
