The Browning 1911-380 Black Label Full-Size Pistol puts a Northern Lights Cerakote finish on a stainless steel slide, chambered in .380 ACP (Browning part no. 051992492). The 4-1/4-inch barrel and 5 3/8-inch sight radius give it a full-size 1911 sight picture with the light recoil of the .380 ACP cartridge. A composite frame over a machined 7075 aluminum sub-frame keeps weight to 18 ounces, and stippled laminated wood grips with the Buckmark logo finish the look. It is a pleasant range pistol and a capable carry gun for shooters who want full-size controls. This Browning pistol comes with two 8-round magazines.
