The Browning 1911-380 Black Label delivers classic 1911 ergonomics in a manageable .380 ACP platform, combining reduced recoil with proven reliability for shooters who want traditional styling without full-power cartridge demands. This full-size frame model bridges the gap between compact carry pistols and full-size service weapons.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard polymer striker-fired pistols, this model maintains the single-action trigger and manual safety systems that define the 1911 platform. The copper Cerakote finish provides enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard bluing while adding distinctive visual appeal. The full-size polymer frame reduces overall weight by approximately 25% versus all-steel construction while maintaining structural integrity for extended shooting sessions.Key Features
