The LFA Apollo 11 FS delivers reliable striker-fired performance in a compact 9mm platform engineered for both concealed carry and duty applications. This pistol combines a 4.9-inch barrel with Flat Dark Earth finish for enhanced corrosion resistance and reduced visibility.
What Makes This Different
The Apollo 11 FS features a full-size grip with compact slide dimensions, providing enhanced control without sacrificing concealability. The striker-fired action eliminates external hammers and safeties that can snag during draw, while the extended sight radius from the 4.9-inch barrel improves accuracy over subcompact alternatives. Factory testing shows consistent 2.5-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition.

Range testing demonstrates consistent cycling with both 115-grain FMJ and 147-grain hollow point loads across temperature extremes from -10°F to 140°F. The extended barrel length generates higher muzzle velocities compared to 3.5-inch carry pistols, with 124-grain loads reaching approximately 1,150 fps. Law enforcement agencies report reliable function through 5,000+ round evaluations with minimal maintenance requirements.
