Design and construction

The AMERICAN PRECISION ARMS STRIKE ONE is a semi-automatic, striker-fired, full-size pistol built on a polymer frame. A 5″ barrel gives it a longer sight radius than compact duty pistols, improving accuracy at typical defensive engagement distances. The Cerakote finish in Olive Drab Green provides corrosion resistance and a low-reflective profile appropriate for field use.

Controls and capacity

This pistol ships without a manual safety and relies on its striker-fired trigger system and internal safeties for drop safety. The full-size grip accommodates a 17-round magazine, and two magazines are included, which supports sustained training and immediate carry rotations. For users prioritizing high-capacity, easy-to-manage platforms, that 17+1 baseline is a practical choice.

Caliber and performance

Chambered in 9mm, the Strike One balances controllability and terminal performance. Nine-millimeter ammunition is widely available and offers a variety of defensive load options while maintaining lower recoil compared with larger calibers—allowing quicker follow-up shots and better shot placement for a broad range of shooters. The 5″ barrel also tends to increase muzzle velocity versus shorter-barrel pistols, improving ballistic consistency for self-defense loads.
