The OD green extension of the 22/45 LITE family is made of aerospace-grade aluminum and is ventilated, making the 22.7-ounce pistol extremely lightweight. It also features a 4.40″, 1/2″-28 threaded barrel and is fitted with a factory-installed thread protector.

The accurate sighting system features precision-adjustable sights. There is also a comfortable, precision-molded Zytel polymer grip frame with a serrated frontstrap and checkered backstrap.

Internal cylindrical bolt construction ensures permanent sight to barrel alignment and higher accuracy potential than conventional moving slide designs.
