# Compact 1911 - Guns For Sale

The Compact 1911 is a shorter version of the classic 1911 pistol, typically chambered in .45 ACP or 9mm, with a barrel length around 3 to 4 inches and a shortened grip. It retains the full-size 1911's single-action trigger, manual thumb safety, and grip safety. Many models use aluminum or alloy frames to reduce carry weight. Manufacturers including Kimber, Springfield Armory, and Colt offer compact variants with options such as night sights, checkered grips, and improved recoil systems.
