It was designed to bridge the gap between affordable rimfire plinking and realistic centerfire tactical training. Debut Date: Unveiled in January 2025 at SHOT Show in Las Vegas, Nevada, before hitting the U.S. commercial market in spring 2025. Core Purpose: Created as an affordable, optics-ready rimfire alternative mimicking the size, handling, and ergonomics of compact 9mm duty pistols. Market Positioning: Priced around an MSRP of $279.99, serving as a budget-friendly competitor to handguns like the Glock G44 and Taurus TX22 Compact.
