Detailed Features 

 
The American Flag Cerakote is the obvious differentiator here -- the finish covers both slide and grip in the stars-and-stripes pattern. Cerakote is durable and corrosion-resistant, so the finish holds up beyond purely cosmetic use. 
 
14+1 capacity at 4 inches of barrel is competitive for the full-size 9mm class. The ergonomic grip and ambidextrous controls are standard inclusions at this price range. Striker-fired with a standard trigger pull.
