The pistol uses a stainless steel match-grade, fully supported bull barrel sized at 3 inches, low-profile 3-dot tritium night sights, and an ambidextrous thumb safety for familiar 1911 controls. The package includes three stainless 9-round magazines with slam pads and a dual-spring recoil system with a full-length guide rod.
