The Arctic Distressed white/gray Cerakote finish is applied to both slide and frame, giving this METE SFT a cohesive, durable look. The steel slide rides over a polymer frame with aggressive side-panel and backstrap texturing for confident handling.
Ergonomics are purpose-built: an integrally flared magwell speeds reloads, and the double undercut trigger guard helps establish a consistent grip. Ambidextrous low-profile slide stop levers and a reversible magazine release support a wide range of shooters.
The slide features front, rear, and top serrations/cuts for positive manipulation. It is optics-ready with a removable cover plate and supports Shield RMS/RMSc and Trijicon RMRcc footprints, offering direct compatibility with popular micro red dots.
Core specs include a 4.46 in non-threaded barrel, full-size dimensions, and an 18+1 standard capacity. Sighting is via a 3-dot white set with a drift-adjustable rear, and a three-slot MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail on the dust cover accepts compatible lights or accessories.
Safety and status cues are clear and concise: a trigger safety blade, loaded chamber viewport, and rear striker status indicator. This pistol is imported by Century Arms and marked accordingly, with manufacture in Turkey.
