In a world where the .380 ACP autoloader market is crowded with compromises, the 1911-380 stands distinct. This firearm embodies an authentic design true to its heritage, presenting itself as a full-featured 1911-style handgun chambered in .380 ACP—a rarity among its peers.
The 1911-380 from Black Label Medallion Maple series commands attention with dimensions slightly larger than those of popular micro .380s, offering enhanced handling and control. Its grip accommodates three fingers comfortably beneath the trigger guard, providing stability without sacrificing concealability.
This model features a longer slide and barrel at 3.6 inches, optimizing accuracy while maintaining ease of carry. Despite these enhancements in size for improved performance, it only adds a mere 3 to 5 ounces over subcompact counterparts—an impressive feat that ensures it remains both practical and efficient for daily use.
For those who value tradition coupled with modern convenience in their sidearm choice, the 1911-380 is not just another option; it's an authoritative statement on what a compact pistol can achieve when designed without compromise.
