The 1911-380 stands alone in the realm of .380 ACP autoloaders. As the sole authentically designed, full-featured 1911-style handgun chambered in .380 ACP, it offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity. This firearm is slightly larger than its micro-sized counterparts but provides an enhanced shooting experience that smaller models simply cannot match.
One key advantage of the 1911-380 is its ergonomic design. The grip allows for three fingers to rest comfortably below the trigger guard, ensuring better control and handling during operation. With a longer slide and barrel measuring at 4.25 inches, this model maintains balance while delivering improved accuracy.
Despite these enhancements, it remains lightweight—only adding a mere 3 to 5 ounces more than typical subcompact models on the market today. This makes it an ideal choice for those seeking both comfort in carry and confidence at range.
The Black Label Black Cherry finish adds an aesthetic appeal that complements its robust functionality—a true testament to craftsmanship meeting performance.
