This is an all-metal pistol, but it’s about as corrosion resistant as you can get. First, both the slide and barrel are stainless steel.
On the all-black pistol, the stainless-steel slide and barrel are coated with black nitride.
The frame is 7075 aluminum for both weight savings and imperviousness to rust.
Interestingly, the trigger is made of G10 — the same composite laminate material as the grips.
I don’t know if it provides any weight savings over aluminum, but I like that the people putting this pistol together were thinking outside the box, and it sets this pistol apart from the competition.
All the G10 parts — trigger, mainspring housing and grips — are made by Hogue.
Springfield Armory is far from the first company to introduce a .380 1911, but it is the totality of features on the 911 that shows me the company was trying to ensure its pistol was all it could be.
