Key Features
- Optic-Ready Slide with Dual Footprint: The slide is cut for both RMR and RMSc optics, so you can mount your favorite red dot without an adapter plate. That means quicker target acquisition and a more natural point of aim for newer shooters.
- Serrated Slide for Positive Grip: The serrations along the front and rear of the slide give you a secure hold when racking the slide, even with sweaty or gloved hands. No more slipping when you need to clear a malfunction or chamber a round.
- Threaded Barrel for Suppressors or Muzzle Brakes: The 4″ threaded barrel lets you attach a suppressor for quieter practice or a compensator to reduce muzzle rise. It’s a feature usually found on pricier rimfire pistols.
- OD Green Cerakote Finish for Durability: Cerakote resists corrosion, scratches, and harsh solvents better than standard bluing. The OD Green color also makes it easy to spot on a crowded range table.
- 13+1 Capacity with Accessory Rail: A 13-round magazine gives you plenty of trigger time between reloads, and the integrated accessory rail accepts lights or lasers for low-light practice.
Who It’s For
This pistol is perfect for families introducing new shooters to handguns, young adults learning safe handling, and experienced rimfire fans who want a reliable trainer with modern upgrades. The 22 LR round is affordable, low-recoil, and quiet when suppressed, making it ideal for extended range sessions.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Lightweight (around 14.5 oz), dual optic footprint (RMR/RMSc), threaded barrel, Cerakote finish, low price point for a feature-packed 22 LR.
- Cons: The trigger pull is a bit heavier than some target-grade 22 pistols (per user reports), and the polymer frame may feel less substantial to shooters used to all-metal frames.
