The Rapide Scorpius is built on a stainless steel frame and slide finished in KimPro II black with brush-polished flats. Stepped cocking serrations and strategically placed lightening cuts reduce reciprocating mass for faster slide cycling.
Its 5-inch match-grade stainless barrel wears a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating and is cut with a 1:16 left-hand twist for long service life and consistent accuracy. A full-length guide rod tames recoil and aids smooth operation.
TruGlo TFX Pro day/night sights combine fiber-optic tubes with tritium inserts—an orange-ring front and two green rear dots—to deliver fast, clear sight pictures in any light. Ambidextrous thumb safeties, a grip safety, and a Swartz firing-pin block provide layered security.
A skeletonized V-cut aluminum trigger and Commander-style hammer promote a crisp break and shortened lock time. Stiplex hexagonal front-strap texturing and an integral magwell funnel improve control and speed reloads.
Chambered in 9 mm Luger with a 9+1 capacity, this pistol arrives with six factory magazines, ready for range, competition, or carry rotations.
