Distinguished Visual Identity
Signature SMOKE Finish
The defining characteristic of this new edition is its sophisticated smoke-themed Cerakote coating, which provides both durability and a distinctive appearance that immediately identifies it as part of the TTI family.

Advanced Sight System
Target acquisition is optimized through the inclusion of a HiViz® fiber optic front sight, enabling rapid and intuitive target pickup in various lighting conditions. This sight system enhances the shooter's ability to engage targets quickly and accurately.
