The 85%-scale frame and slide give this 1911-22 authentic proportions while keeping controls familiar. It follows GI/A1 cues with a short, solid trigger, a single-sided thumb safety, a grip safety, and a spur hammer.
Operation is single-action only with a straight blowback system. The barrel uses a traditional 1911-style barrel bushing and recoil spring plug. Capacity is 10+1 rounds of .22 LR, and two factory-pattern steel magazines are included.
The slide and frame wear a matte black finish. The slide has rear-only vertical serrations for a clean GI look. Sights are fixed and low-profile, with a blade front and a notch rear.
Grips are double-diamond checkered wood panels that complement the classic A1 aesthetic. The magazine release is standard. Markings include a slide rollmarked "1911-22" with the Browning Buckmark and a frame marked "BROWNING ARMS CO. MORGAN, UTAH, U.S.A."
