Overview
Built as a full-size 9mm pistol, this model is suited to range work, home defense, and general duty use where a stable grip and straightforward handling matter. The Gen6 frame adds an integrated palm swell, a thumb rest, and enhanced texturing to support control during extended sessions, while the flat-faced trigger is designed for consistent finger placement. Front serrations make slide manipulation and press checks more accessible, and the optic-ready setup gives you room to configure the pistol with or without a red dot. It ships with three 10-round magazines, offering a ready-to-use package without adding unnecessary complexity.

- Optic readiness adds flexibility, but you still need to choose and install a compatible red dot to take advantage of that feature.
