The Browning 1911-380 Black Label delivers full-size 1911 handling with manageable .380 ACP recoil, making it an ideal choice for shooters seeking classic design with reduced felt recoil. This pistol combines traditional 1911 ergonomics with modern manufacturing precision and durable finishes.
What Makes This Different
Unlike compact .380 pistols that sacrifice grip length and sight radius, this full-size frame provides a complete 4-finger grip and longer barrel for enhanced accuracy. The Northern Lights Cerakote finish offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard bluing, while the serrated slide provides positive manipulation even with wet hands. The polymer frame reduces overall weight by approximately 6 ounces compared to all-steel variants while maintaining structural integrity.Key Features
