Key Features
- Optics-Ready Slide with RMSc Footprint – No machining needed. Mount your favorite red dot directly, getting on target faster in low-light or high-stress situations.
- Extended Threaded Barrel with Thread Cap – Run a suppressor or compensator for recoil control and reduced muzzle rise, critical when every shot counts in close quarters.
- Slide Lightening Cuts – Reduce reciprocating mass for quicker cycle times and easier racking, especially if you have smaller hands or need to clear a malfunction fast.
- Interchangeable Grip Backstraps – Customize the palm swell to fit your hand size, improving control and accuracy during rapid fire.
- Striker-Fired Action with 17-Round Capacity – Consistent trigger pull and enough rounds to handle multiple threats without reloading—essential for apartment dwellers and urban CCW holders.
Who It’s For
This pistol is built for the city shooter who needs a compact, optics-ready handgun that pulls double duty—everyday carry and home defense. If you live in an apartment, the threaded barrel lets you add a suppressor to keep hearing safe indoors. If you carry daily, the slide cuts and backstraps help you shoot faster and more accurately under pressure.
Pros & Cons

- Pro: Lightweight polymer frame with tungsten slide resists wear and corrosion.
