Key Features
- Compact 3.25-Inch Barrel: Why it matters — this short barrel keeps the gun easy to conceal and maneuver in tight spaces, perfect for new shooters learning proper grip and stance.
- 12+1 Round Capacity: Why it matters — you get enough rounds for a full training session at the range or reliable capacity for home defense without the bulk of a full-size pistol.
- Gray and Nickel Finish: Why it matters — the two-tone look resists corrosion and adds a touch of style, so your firearm stays looking good even after years of use.
- Lightweight Polymer Frame: Why it matters — less weight means less fatigue during practice, making it easier for younger or smaller-handed shooters to handle safely.
- Fixed Sights: Why it matters — simple, snag-free sights are ideal for beginners who need a clear sight picture without adjustments.
