The Savage 1911 Government combines time-tested 1911 design with modern manufacturing precision and enhanced corrosion resistance. This full-size .45 ACP pistol features a black Melonite finish that provides superior durability compared to traditional bluing or parkerizing.
What Makes This Different
The black Melonite coating penetrates the steel surface rather than sitting on top like paint or plating, creating a finish that resists wear, corrosion, and scratching better than conventional treatments. The stainless steel slide paired with the treated frame offers the perfect balance of corrosion resistance and classic aesthetics. This Government model maintains the original 5-inch barrel length that made the 1911 famous for accuracy and reliability.Key Features
