Who It’s For

This pistol is designed for the civilian concealed carrier who demands a compact firearm that does not compromise on safety or shootability.

• Ideal for daily concealed carry in IWB or OWB holsters due to the compact grip length and rounded profile

• Perfect for shooters who prefer a grip safety over a manual thumb safety for a more natural draw stroke
