Key Features

• Metal Frame – T6 aluminum construction reduces flex under recoil, giving you faster follow-up shots in competition.
• Slide Lightening Cuts – These cuts reduce reciprocating mass, improving cycle speed and reducing muzzle rise during rapid fire.
• Flared Magazine Well – A wide, beveled opening lets you reload faster under pressure, shaving seconds off your stage times.
• M2.0 Flat-Face Trigger – The flat trigger shoe provides a consistent finger placement and a crisp break, helping you stay on target.
• Optics-Ready Slide – Direct-mount for RMSc/Shield footprint red dots, so you can add a dot without an adapter plate.

Who It’s For

This pistol is for USPSA Carry Optics, IDPA SSP/ESP, or steel challenge shooters who want a factory-built competition gun with a metal frame. It also fits experienced shooters upgrading from a polymer M&P who want the weight and stability of aluminum.

Pros/Cons

• Pro: Four 10-round magazines included (40 total rounds out of the box).
• Pro: Tungsten Gray Cerakote finish resists holster wear and corrosion.
• Con: The 10-round magazine capacity may require more reloads in divisions that allow higher capacity – check your local match rules.

FAQ
