Ergonomics and trigger

The flat-faced polymer trigger promotes a consistent finger placement and can aid trigger press straight to the rear. The double-undercut trigger guard allows the shooting hand to climb higher for better sight alignment without sacrificing comfort. Because no specific caliber is listed, the chassis supports flexible builds across common defensive chamberings where compatible.
