This Black Label Full Size variant uses an 85%-scale 1911 design with a 4.25-inch Commander-length barrel, delivering familiar 1911 ergonomics and single-action-only operation in .380 ACP. Controls include an ambidextrous manual thumb safety and a grip safety, with a skeletonized, lightened trigger and a skeletonized commander-style hammer.
The composite (polymer) frame is built around an internal machined aluminum subframe and rails for strength and durability. It uses a short-recoil, locked-breech tilting-barrel action rather than blowback, tailored for the .380 ACP chambering.
The matte black slide is cut with rear cocking serrations and no front serrations, paired with fixed, low-profile sights: a plain black blade front and a plain black square-notch rear. The dust cover is smooth and does not include an accessory rail.
Feeding is via a single-stack design with an 8+1 standard capacity for the series; this example includes three 8-round magazines. The model family is identified by Browning serial block "51H" for this 1911-380 series.
