Who It’s For

This pistol is built for the traditional shooter who values hand-fit quality and uniform Cerakote finish over mass-produced parts. It’s ideal for those running a suppressor on a .300 BLK platform, as the 9-inch barrel and gas system are tuned for subsonic and supersonic loads. If you appreciate ambidextrous controls and a lifetime warranty, this is your pistol.

Pros / Cons

Pros: Hand-assembled, full ambidextrous controls, Cerakote finish matches across all parts, lifetime guarantee, suppressed-ready gas system.

Cons: The price point is higher than many comparable pistols, and the 9-inch barrel may limit velocity for supersonic loads compared to longer barrels.
