Key Features
- Compact Bronze Cerakote Finish — Why it matters: This BRZ finish not only looks sharp at the range but also resists holster wear and corrosion, keeping your pistol ready for humid southern summers.
- 10+1 Round Capacity — Why it matters: With a flush-fit 10-round magazine, you get plenty of firepower for everyday carry without printing under a light cover garment.
- Striker-Fired Action — Why it matters: Consistent trigger pull every time, just like a full-size duty pistol, giving you confidence in high-stress situations.
- Ambidextrous Slide Stop — Why it matters: Whether you’re right-handed or left-handed, you can lock the slide back or release it without shifting your grip—handy during reload drills.
- Integral Accessory Rail — Why it matters: Mount a light or laser for low-light hunting or home defense, without adding bulk to the compact frame.
