Browning 1911-380 Black Label Medallion Pro .380 ACP 8+1 3.63"

The Browning 1911-380 Black Label Medallion Pro delivers full-size 1911 handling in a compact .380 ACP platform designed for concealed carry and personal defense. This precision-engineered pistol combines the classic 1911 manual of arms with modern manufacturing techniques and a proven cartridge.

What Makes This Different

The Medallion Pro features a target-crowned steel barrel that enhances accuracy compared to standard flush-cut barrels found on most compact pistols. The blackened stainless steel slide with polished flats creates visual contrast while maintaining corrosion resistance. The polymer frame reduces overall weight to approximately 18 ounces while incorporating an integral beavertail for enhanced grip control and reduced slide bite.

Key Features

• 3.63-inch target crown steel barrel for enhanced accuracy and muzzle protection
• 8+1 capacity with flush-fitting magazine plus extended baseplate option
• Blackened stainless steel slide with silver polished flats and front/rear serrations
• Matte black polymer frame with integral beavertail and textured grip panels
• Single-action trigger system with manual thumb safety and grip safety
• Low-profile combat sights with white dot front sight
• Ambidextrous slide release for left and right-handed operation

Field performance centers on the .380 ACP cartridge's manageable recoil combined with the 1911's inherent pointability. The 3.63-inch barrel length provides sufficient velocity for defensive ammunition while maintaining concealability. The polymer frame construction reduces fatigue during extended range sessions while the target crown protects barrel rifling from damage during holstering and cleaning.
