SAV 1911 Government Black 9mm 5" Barrel 10-Round Pistol$1,222.57
Availability: In Stock
The Savage Arms 1911 Government in 9mm is a modern take on John Browning's legendary single-action platform, built tough for serious shooters who demand reliability and accuracy. This 5-inch barreled 1911 pairs classic lines with contemporary craftsmanship—forged stainless steel construction throughout, a nitride-coated titanium firing pin, and fully machined tool steel internals engineered to handle hard use. Whether you're running it at the range or carrying it as a duty or defensive pistol, the SAV 1911 delivers the accuracy and dependability that made the platform iconic.
Savage has invested in details that matter. The stainless steel barrel is machined from billet with an 11-degree target crown to maximize accuracy potential. A dual recoil spring system with GI-style guide rod keeps the action smooth and consistent shot to shot. The ejection port is lowered, flared, and cut for reliable live round ejection—no stovepipes, no excuses. You get ambidextrous slide lock safeties so you can run it naturally from either shoulder, and the sights are purpose-built: Novak Lo-Mount adjustable tritium bars in the rear paired with a tritium Mega Dot Glow Dome Yellow front sight for fast target acquisition in any light.
The 10-round magazine capacity makes it a nimble, carry-friendly option while the VZ G10 grips provide a secure, textured hold. All the bones of a 1911 you know, wrapped in materials and engineering chosen for durability and performance.

This SAV 1911 Government is chambered in 9mm, which offers higher magazine capacity, softer recoil, and lower ammunition cost compared to .45 ACP—all while delivering solid power for range and defensive use. The 10-round magazine is a direct benefit of the 9mm platform.
The SAV 1911 Government is built for both. Its stainless steel construction and fully machined internals are engineered for reliability in duty or defensive roles, the ambidextrous safeties support fast deployment, and the tritium sights work day and night. The 5-inch barrel and 10-round capacity make it a practical carry option for those who prefer the 1911 platform.
The SAV 1911 Government ships with Novak Lo-Mount adjustable tritium bar sights in the rear and a tritium Mega Dot Glow Dome Yellow front sight. Both are night-capable and ready to use out of the box.
The pistol comes equipped with VZ G10 grips, which are removable so you can swap them for other 1911-compatible grip options if desired.
