The Equalizer’s internal-hammer, single-action-only, short-recoil system delivers a consistent trigger while retaining a compact, carry-friendly profile. The No Thumb Safety configuration keeps the manual controls streamlined and relies on the integrated grip safety.

Sight setup is straightforward and durable: a dovetailed white-dot front and a dovetailed two-dot rear form a 3-dot sight picture. The slide is optics-ready, allowing a red-dot to be mounted if desired. (Cover plate is not present; see Condition.)
