I find it interesting that they say it is available to the civilian community as well. That may be true elsewhere, but, according to the California Department of Justice. Honor Defense has 0 hand guns available for sale to the residents of this fine state.
Once again. California screws the public of a finely designed and safe hand gun.
Ed, you are correct it is a very fine U S A pistol,but it’s sad that it is not approved by more departments as a on or off duty weapon for detectives and staff officers . I know several departments that approve the 9mm Smith and Wesson Sheild as an on duty weapon for plain clothes officer’s .
