Compact, optic-ready pistols have become the go-to choice for serious shooters who want a duty-capable handgun that performs in both defensive and competitive roles. A purpose-built slide with an RMR cut, paired with a stout 4.3″ barrel and a balanced grip, gives you the tools to shoot faster and more accurately without sacrificing concealability.

Design and ergonomics

The TYPE-B’s 4.3″ barrel strikes a balance between sight radius and concealability. Its Gen 2 grip geometry promotes a consistent hand position for recoil control, and the black slide offers reduced glare and a tactical aesthetic. Included accessories—manual, gun bag, Sharpie, gun lock, and cover plate—mean the pistol arrives ready for immediate setup and safe transport.

Optics-ready RMR cut

The RMR optic cut is the headline feature for shooters who prioritize speed and sight acquisition. Dovetailing an RMR footprint to the slide eliminates the need for aftermarket milling and keeps co-witness options open with aftermarket sights. The package even includes a cover plate for users who initially prefer iron sights.

Caliber and practical use

Chambered in 9mm Luger, this pistol benefits from manageable recoil, wide ammunition availability, and proven terminal performance for self-defense and training. The included 12-, 15-, and 18-round magazines provide flexibility for competition, range practice, or daily carry setups.
