Savage 1911 Government Pistol .45 ACP 5-Inch Black with Rail

Savage 1911: A Modern Tribute to a Legendary Design

In the annals of firearms history, few designs have withstood the test of time like John Moses Browning's iconic single-action semi-automatic pistol. The M1911 has been a cornerstone in military and civilian arsenals for over a century. Now, Savage Arms breathes new life into this storied firearm with their latest iteration: the Savage 1911.

This modern masterpiece is constructed from robust stainless steel, ensuring durability and resilience under hard use. At its heart lies a meticulously machined 5-inch barrel crafted from billet stainless steel, crowned at an 11-degree angle for enhanced accuracy—a nod to precision that serious shooters will appreciate.

The dual recoil spring system incorporates a GI-style guide rod and barrel bushing, providing smooth operation while managing recoil effectively. This ensures rapid follow-up shots without compromising on control or comfort.

Attention to detail is evident throughout its design. The ejection port is lowered and flared for reliable live round ejection—an essential feature for those who demand consistent performance in critical moments. Additionally, the titanium firing pin boasts a nitride coating, marrying strength with corrosion resistance.

Internally, you'll find fully machined tool steel components such as the sear and disconnector paired with a stainless steel hammer—all contributing to the gun’s renowned reliability and crisp trigger pull.
