The Savage 1911 Government is a full-size single-action semi-automatic pistol built on a stainless-steel frame with a two-tone finish. It pairs a 5″ stainless barrel with a Melonite-treated slide and includes proven 1911 features such as a dual recoil spring system, machined sear and disconnector, and ambidextrous thumb safety.
