The Browning 1911-22 is scaled at 85% of the full-size 1911, especially developed for 22 LR ammo with controls that operate just as those in the original Browning-designed Model 1911. Straight blowback action offers enhanced simplicity and reliability while a polished feed ramp offers reliable feeding with all types of rimfire ammo. The 4.25" stainless steel barrel of the 1911-22 A1 is target crowned. Vertical serrations on the slide provide an improved cocking grip, and the manual slide release is easily operated with the shooting or support hand. It has a large manual thumb safety and grip safety. The 10-round steel magazine body is heat treated for long-term feeding reliability and long life with the magazine release positioned adjacent to the trigger guard for convenient operation. This model comes with pink synthetic grips.
