Controls include an ambidextrous thumb safety, a bladed trigger safety, a neutrally balanced sear, an internal hammer catch, and a left-side magazine release. Capacity is 20+1, and the pistol will fire with the magazine removed (no magazine disconnect).

The slide has front and rear serrations, a top lightening cut, and is drilled and tapped for optics. Sights are a green fiber-optic front paired with a fully adjustable rear (square-notch with windage and elevation screws).
