The Browning 1911-22 Black Label Suppressor Ready with Rail is an 85 percent scale .22 LR pistol built as a rimfire from the start rather than as a conversion kit (brand part no. 051820490). Its 4-7/8-inch steel barrel is threaded 1/2×28, and a polymer frame keeps the weight down to 14 ounces. Black and gray G-10 grips with angled serrations hold on even when wet, and the extended ambidextrous thumb safety, beavertail grip safety, commander hammer and skeletonized trigger give it the controls of a custom 1911. A 1913 Picatinny rail on the dust cover takes a light or laser, which makes it a capable range, plinking and training pistol.
