Ported Barrel Performance
The 4.6-inch ported barrel uses strategically placed ports to redirect combustion gases upward, counteracting muzzle rise and keeping the sight picture flat during rapid fire. Combined with the black nitride finish's corrosion resistance and low-friction properties, this barrel delivers consistent accuracy and long-term durability in demanding conditions.
Tactical Slide with RMR Cut
Machined from 416 stainless steel and finished in black nitride, the slide features aggressive front and rear serrations for confident press checks and malfunction clearances. The RMR optic cut allows shooters to mount red dot sights for faster target acquisition, while the included cover plate keeps the system sealed when running irons. The forward window cut ensures proper clearance for the ported barrel's gas venting.
SCT Polymer Frame Assembly
The SCT full frame (Model 02A) delivers a proven polymer platform with integrated trigger guard and included locking block for structural integrity. Designed for Glock magazine compatibility, this frame offers familiar ergonomics and straightforward component installation for builders and upgraders alike.
High-Capacity Magpul Magazine
The included 15-round Magpul magazine is built from extremely stiff polymer with a high-visibility follower and long-life stainless steel spring. Engineered for thousands of rounds of reliable feeding, this magazine combines lightweight construction with corrosion-resistant internals for consistent performance across all environments.
