The Savage 1911 Government combines the classic single-action 1911 platform with modern materials and precision-machined components. Chambered in .45 ACP, it features a forged stainless-steel frame and slide protected by a durable black nitride finish. Its billet-machined 5" stainless-steel barrel has an 11-degree target crown designed to support consistent accuracy.
A dual recoil-spring system helps manage recoil, while the Novak sight arrangement, ambidextrous thumb safety, and textured VZ Operator G10 grips provide confident handling. Internal upgrades include a nitride-coated titanium firing pin, tool-steel sear and disconnector, and stainless-steel hammer. Two 8-round magazines are included.
