Compact, accurate, and classically styled, this pistol blends heritage 1911 ergonomics with economical .22 LR performance for training and precision target work. Its reduced scale makes it a natural choice for shooters who want the look and manual controls of a 1911 in a lightweight, low-recoil package.

BROWNING 1911-22 BLACK LABEL MEDALLION

Design and build quality

The BROWNING 1911-22 BLACK LABEL MEDALLION is built to roughly 85% scale of the original 1911 platform, maintaining familiar controls like the commander-style hammer, beavertail grip safety, and extended slide release. The matte black aluminum frame with machined aluminum subframe keeps weight down while the aluminum slide features polished flats and black curves for a refined two-tone presentation. A 3.63″ stainless steel barrel yields consistent bullet pathways for .22 LR loads without adding unnecessary length.

Key features for precision shooting

Sights and ergonomics

Steel 3-dot combat sights provide fast, intuitive sight alignment for dry-fire practice and live-fire sessions. The maple medallion grips feature intricate checkering and a gold Buckmark emblem—both decorative and functional for positive purchase during follow-up shots.

Controls and capacity

The compact frame holds a 10+1 magazine count—ample for training, plinking, and controlled practice. The beavertail grip safety and extended slide release replicate full-size 1911 ergonomics, making transitions to centerfire 1911s more natural for students and instructors.
