What Makes This Different
The Rapide Dawn stands apart with its gold Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated stainless steel barrel that provides superior corrosion resistance and reduced friction compared to standard finishes. Lightning cuts machined into the stainless steel slide reduce reciprocating mass by 15% while maintaining structural integrity. The precision-fitted stainless steel frame incorporates an extended beavertail for enhanced grip control and reduced felt recoil.Key Features
