Features & Specs

The core of this pistol is its forged steel construction, mated to a match-grade barrel and a precision-machined slide. The “LB” (Lightweight) designation refers to the aluminum alloy trigger guard and mainspring housing, which reduces overall weight without sacrificing structural integrity. The Operator model adds a full-length Picatinny rail and a tritium front sight for low-light target acquisition.
