Modular design with customer-specific design possibilities, for example:
- SA/DA Variant Double Action/Single Action with safety lever for safety and de-cocking function, arranged on the right or left side
- SA/DA Variant Double Action/Single Action with safety lever, arranged on the right or left side
- SA/DA Variant Double Action/Single Action with safety lever only for de-cocking function, arranged on the right or left side
- Variant DA Double Action with safety lever for safety function, arranged on the right or left side, without de-cocking lever
