The Falcon Commander pairs a Commander-length 4.25-inch bushing barrel and standard recoil spring plug with a single-stack 8+1 .45 ACP configuration. The barrel hood is marked "NHC .45 ACP NM," and the ejection port is lowered and flared for reliable extraction.
The slide is a tri-top design with longitudinal ball-radius top cuts, Browning Hi-Power-style front slide relief cuts, and rear cocking serrations with no front serrations. Its matte/brushed silver finish contrasts with the dark controls for a clean two-tone appearance.
Sights are fixed and fully dovetailed: a Trijicon tritium front marked "H3 20" and a Heinie ledge-style rear. This robust sight picture is set up for low-light visibility at the front with a durable rear profile.
The steel frame includes a one-piece blended flared magwell/mainspring housing, checkered front strap and mainspring housing, and a checkered magazine release. Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety plus a beavertail grip safety with a memory bump. The trigger is a skeletonized, three-hole aluminum unit, and the hammer is a skeletonized rowel (Commander-style). Black textured G10 grips with Nighthawk medallions complete the grip frame.
Documentation includes a factory test target recorded at 12 yards from a bench rest and noting gunsmith identification (Bryan Chaney). The pistol was manufactured in the USA and arrives with three 8-round magazines as listed.
