CloseThe additions that made it ideal for law enforcement also make it perfect for home defense, so we gladly offer it for sale to the public.
The Specialist Commander Black Optics-Ready is chambered in .45 ACP and loaded with features to satisfy a public servant’s special requirements. The forged stainless steel slide wears our inverted top rib with a serrated ledge rear sight and a green lamp with white target ring in front.
The frame sports an integral 1913 Picatinny, 25 LPI front strap checkering, undercut trigger guard and recessed slide stop to enable the installation of laser grips. Equipped with an ambidextrous thumb safety, extended magazine release, and detachable magwell, the Specialist Commander Black Optics-Ready is operator-friendly. It is finished off with a set of G10 VZ Operator II grips that force the hand into the beavertail and hold it there.
The Specialist Commander Black Optics-Ready ships with two 8-round magazines with bump pads and features our Duty Black finish, which makes for an especially hardy pistol that scoffs at everyday wear and tear.
All models come with a cover plate and, appropriate for model, fixed or adjustable, rear sight.
