About Browning 1911-22 Compact Desert Tan

John Browning created the legendary 1911, a pistol by which all modern semi-automatic handguns are judged. Rather than taking that original design and converting it from a center fire pistol into a rimfire, Browning engineers created an 85% scale 1911 designed specifically to shoot the .22 LR cartridge. This attention to detail has resulted in a pistol that is both fun and accurate. This compact model features a 3.6" barrel and a magazine release that is positioned adjacent to the trigger guard for convenient operation.

Detailed Review

The Browning 1911-22 Compact Desert Tan is a semi-automatic handgun designed by John M. Browning, one of the most legendary firearms designers in history. This version of the 1911-22 is a smaller, more compact model that has become popular with concealed carry enthusiasts and those who prefer a lighter, easier-to-handle pistol.

One of the standout features of the 1911-22 Compact is its striking desert tan finish, which gives the gun a unique look that sets it apart from other firearms. The finish is both durable and corrosion-resistant, ensuring that the gun will remain in excellent condition even after frequent use.

The pistol boasts an impressive array of features, including a single-action trigger, a manual thumb safety, and a magazine disconnect that prevents the gun from firing when the magazine is removed. The gun also comes equipped with a built-in beavertail grip safety, which helps prevent accidental firing by ensuring that the trigger can only be pulled when the shooter has a proper grip on the gun.

Another notable feature of the 1911-22 Compact is its lightweight alloy frame, which makes the gun easier to handle and carry over long distances. Despite its smaller size and lighter weight, however, the gun still delivers impressive accuracy and power thanks to its precision-machined barrel and reliable blowback action.

The 1911-22 Compact also offers a number of customization options, including a variety of grips and sights that allow shooters to tailor the gun to their preferences. And because the gun uses .22 LR ammunition, shooters can enjoy the thrill of shooting without the high cost and recoil associated with larger calibers.

Overall, the Browning 1911-22 Compact Desert Tan is a versatile and reliable firearm that offers the perfect combination of style, power, and practicality.

Accurate gun for size. Not the quality you would expect from a browning. Also only comes with 1 magazine.
