Whereas the Hi Power used the 9 mm Luger Parabellum 9 mm Para cartridge, the NAACO Brigadier used a new long case .45 round of much greater power than the then standard .45 ACP .

In order to keep weight down, the pistol used an aluminium slide, but still weighed more than four pounds, unloaded. Its box magazine could carry eight rounds of ammunition.
