Key Features
- Polished Chrome Finish with Gold Accents – Why it matters: This eye-catching two-tone treatment resists corrosion and stands out on the range, while the gold highlights on the trigger, hammer, and safety add a touch of class without compromising function.
- Ambidextrous Safety and Slide Release – Why it matters: Left- and right-handed shooters can operate the controls equally fast, making this pistol a natural fit for competition or training with either hand.
- Custom Grips with Mexican Coat of Arms – Why it matters: The grips offer a secure texture and a unique heritage design, giving the Liberador II a personality that sets it apart from standard 92 clones.
- 4.9-Inch Barrel with Accessory Rail – Why it matters: The longer barrel boosts sight radius and muzzle velocity for accurate shooting, while the Picatinny rail lets you mount a light or laser for low-light practice.
- 18+1 Round Capacity – Why it matters: With two 18-round magazines included, you get plenty of firepower for extended range sessions or competition stages without constant reloading.

Whether you’re running drills on a Saturday morning or stepping into a local USPSA match, the Liberador II delivers reliable function at a price that leaves room for ammo and targets. It also appeals to collectors who value the Mexican-themed grips and chrome finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magazines does the EAA Girsan Regard Liberador II use?
This pistol uses standard EAA Girsan Regard 9mm magazines, which hold 18 rounds. They are compatible with most 92-style magazine wells, though some aftermarket 92-series mags may require minor fitting.
Can I mount a red dot on this pistol?
The slide is not optics-ready from the factory. To mount a red dot, you would need to have the slide milled by a gunsmith or use a dovetail adapter plate.
Is the finish durable for everyday carry?
The polished chrome is tough against rust but can show scratches and holster wear with daily carry. It’s best suited for range use, competition, or occasional carry in a soft case.
Does it come with a case and accessories?
Yes, the Liberador II ships in a hard plastic case with two 18-round magazines, a cable lock, and the custom grips installed. A manual and cleaning brush are also included.
