Sig Sauer 1911-22 B .22 LR Full-Size Rimfire 1911 Pistol – German 2012 Production, Matte Black, 5" Barrel, 10+1
This early 2012 German-proofed Sig Sauer 1911-22 B combines traditional Government-model dimensions with a lightweight alloy frame and a fixed-barrel straight-blowback system. Discontinued after 2015, these rimfire 1911s have become less common, making this example appealing to shooters and collectors who want authentic 1911 ergonomics in an affordable .22 LR platform.

Built on the proven 1911 platform, the 1911-22 B retains the grip angle, controls, and trigger feel that 1911 enthusiasts expect, while scaling the caliber down to economical .22 LR.
The lightweight alloy frame and matching matte black blued slide keep overall weight manageable without sacrificing full-size handling. Vertical rear serrations and a non-railed dust cover preserve classic lines.
A fixed, non-threaded 5" barrel is anchored to the frame for consistent accuracy. The straight-blowback, single-action-only system delivers reliable cycling with standard-velocity rimfire loads.
Skeletonized components—including a three-hole aluminum trigger and commander-style hammer—provide a crisp break and fast lock time. Walnut double-diamond grip panels add a traditional touch and offer secure purchase.
Fixed 3-dot contrast sights are dovetailed front and rear, allowing easy replacement if desired. CIP/N German proofmarks and an EXETER-NH import mark identify this as an authentic early production import.
