Details
Loaded chamber indicator The loading state of the pistol is indicated at all times both visibly and mechanically by the loaded chamber indicator. When a round is chambered it sits proud of the top slide so it can be felt and the red indicator marking can be seen. This allows the shooter to readily recognize whether the pistol is loaded or unloaded. |
 |
Magazine release The ambidextrous arrangement of the magazine release makes magazine removal equally easy for right and left handed shooters. It can be operated by the thumb/index finger of either hand. |
 |
Disassembly/Assembly For cleaning purposes, the pistol is easily disassembled into its subassemblies without tools. Disassembly of the pistol is carried out without having to remove the slide release from the grip. |
|
Exchangeable backstrap inserts and grip shells The backstrap inserts and grip shells (right/left) are easily exchanged to allow perfect individual adaptation of the weapon to various hand sizes. Backstrap inserts and grip shells are available in three different sizes (S, M, L). Checkered surfaces integrated on the front strap, backstrap and on the grip shells allow a nonskid grip of the pistol. |
 |
Sights The pistol has a square notch rear sight and post type front sight. The long glowing (non-radioactive) contrast points allow the shooter a rapid target acquisition, even under unfavorable lighting conditions. |
