This Taran Tactical Sand Viper JW4 PV is a full-size, 2011-pattern, double-stack 9mm with a 5 inch barrel and a bronze-tone finish often described in model literature as DLC Coyote bronze. It is set up for red-dot use with a direct-milled optic cut and an installed Trijicon SRO. Distinct model markings include the frame underside engraved "MODEL: JW4 PV" and a chamber hood stamped "9 X 19." The package includes a broad magazine set to support its 26+1 capacity.
Condition
Overall Condition: Very good condition, showing only light, superficial signs of prior handling or use.

Bore Rifling: Excellent Rifling - Sharp lands and grooves.
Specific Condition Notes: The action cycles with a smooth, glassy feel, and the trigger breaks crisply. Minor scratches and small blemishes are present.

The JW4 PV submodel marking on the frame underside clearly identifies this variant within the Sand Viper line. The 2011-pattern, double-stack frame uses a removable polymer grip module with a coarse, granular texture and a large-capacity magazine design to support the listed 26+1 capacity.
The slide is purpose-built for performance, featuring forward and rear diagonal serrations, matching left- and right-side lightening windows and a top cut, and a full-length dust cover with relief cuts. A direct-milled optic cut mounts the included Trijicon SRO securely, and this configuration is optic-only with no iron sights.
Controls and fire control components include an extended beavertail grip safety and a skeletonized trigger in a single-action-only system. The pistol uses a Browning-type tilting-barrel operating system, and the chamber hood is marked "9 X 19" for quick caliber verification.
The bronze exterior finish aligns with model literature that refers to a DLC "Coyote bronze" tone. Origin is USA, and the model is recognized on public handgun rosters as a distinct 9mm variant.
