1911 Vs 2011 Handgun, What's The Difference

About this video

Colion explains the key differences between 1911 and 2011 pistols during what appears to be a factory visit or product demonstration. He discusses how the 2011 design incorporates a polymer grip with a steel or aluminum frame module to reduce recoil, while enabling higher capacity magazines compared to traditional 1911s. The conversation covers various models, customization options, and configuration possibilities available directly from the manufacturer.

Key takeaways

  • According to Colion, the 2011 differs from the 1911 by using a polymer grip connected to a metal frame module, which helps absorb recoil and allows for higher capacity double-stack magazines
  • Colion describes how customization options are available based on consumer feedback, including threaded barrels, different finishes, and trigger weights, with approximately 90-day lead times for configured orders
  • Colion notes that while the manufacturer has produced limited runs in other calibers for law enforcement, their current broad market offerings are exclusively in nine millimeter
