Features & Specs

Let’s get into the details that matter when you are handling this pistol. The Loaded LB Operator is built on a forged carbon steel frame and slide, both parkerized for durability. The 5-inch match-grade barrel is fitted to a bushingless bull barrel setup, which improves accuracy potential and simplifies cleaning. The full-length Picatinny rail lets you mount a light or laser without adapter plates. The front sight is a fiber optic for quick acquisition, and the rear sight is a low-profile combat sight with a tactical rack ledge for one-handed manipulation. The grip features slim G10 VZ grips with a textured pattern that locks your hand in place without being abrasive.
