Enjoying a day at the range with a .22LR pistol should be both safe and enjoyable and why not add a touch of style to your shooting experience? The Browning model 1911-22 offers striking Copper, Northern Lights or Black Cherry cerakote finish options for its slide, making it stand out in appearance. This isn't just a scaled-down version of the original 1911; it's meticulously crafted to about 85% of the scale of John M. Browning's legendary .45 ACP model 1911 pistol. Designed with reverence to the original, it has undergone rigorous testing to ensure it meets Browning's high standards of accuracy, function and overall feel. Operating on a single action, straight blowback system, the 1911-22 simplifies the mechanism by foregoing the tilting barrel of the original design. Its 10-round solid steel magazine features a coil spring for consistent, reliable operation. The Black Label models of the 1911-22 are tailored for enhanced shootability with features like a flat mainspring housing that improves grip comfort across a wider range of shooters. A beavertail grip safety prevents hammer bite while ensuring secure engagement. The skeletonized hammer and trigger provide a crisp, responsive feel and the ambidextrous extended safety is conveniently positioned for easy access and operation by both left- and right-handed shooters.
