Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

There's something fitting about pairing the 1911 with the .380 ACP cartridge, since John Moses Browning designed both. The 1911-380 Black Label Medallion brings them together in a pistol built to roughly 85% the scale of the original .45 ACP gun. That sizing is the whole point. It's noticeably smaller and lighter than a full-size 1911, yet big enough that your whole hand gets a real grip on it, which makes the normally snappy .380 round feel downright pleasant to shoot.
This Medallion version is the dressed-up member of the family. The checkered maple grip panels with the gold Buckmark inlay sit against a bi-tone stainless slide with brush-polished flats and blackened curves, and it draws attention every time we pull one out of the case. Underneath the good looks you get a composite frame reinforced with a machined 7075 aluminum subframe and slide rails, keeping weight down without giving up rigidity. Steel 3-dot combat sights are dovetailed in place, and the skeletonized hammer and trigger give it that proper single-action 1911 feel.
Unlike most blowback-operated 380s, this pistol runs a locked-breech, recoil-operated action just like a full-size 1911. That means a lighter recoil spring, so racking the slide takes very little effort, which matters a lot for anyone with reduced hand strength. The crisp single-action trigger makes accurate shooting come easy, and the extended ambidextrous thumb safety and beavertail grip safety work just like the classic design, so manual of arms and takedown will feel familiar to any 1911 fan.
With its 3.63 inch stainless barrel and 8+1 capacity, this compact makes a great trainer, an easy carry option, or simply a fun gun that happens to be gorgeous. Browning includes two heat-treated steel 8-round magazines in the box, so you're set for the range from day one.
No, it's built to roughly 85% the scale of the original .45 ACP Model 1911. That makes it lighter and easier to carry than a full-size gun, but the grip is still long and wide enough for a full firing grip, which is a big step up in control compared to pocket-sized 380s.
Yes, and that's one of its biggest selling points. Because it uses a locked-breech, recoil-operated action instead of the blowback design found on most 380s, it runs a much lighter recoil spring. The slide takes very little effort to manipulate, which makes it a popular pick for shooters with limited hand strength.
For the most part, yes. It's a single-action design with an extended ambidextrous thumb safety, a beavertail grip safety, a skeletonized hammer and trigger, and a familiar takedown process. If you already know your way around a 1911, this one will feel like home right away.
Browning ships this model with two 8-round magazines, giving you 8+1 total capacity with one in the chamber. The magazines are made from heat-treated steel for long service life, and spares are readily available if you want extras for range days.
