Dear John

Model Description

We couldn't find much information about Dear John, only a few talking points. This limited-edition model was slow to sell when it was first listed, but it became much sought after once it sold out. At the time of its release, the only way to get the mini 1911 compensator was by buying this model. Releasing on Valentines Day 2022 the name of this model is dark considering it is named after a Dear John Letter. This refers to a letter sent to a service man serving overseas by his girlfriend, fiancé, or wife to inform him that she is leaving him for another.

The frame, grip panels, slide, and display stand are hydro dipped in a camouflage pattern made up of white, light pink, reddish pink, and muted purple colors. The compensator, barrel, spring guide, hammer, slide lock, thumb safety, grip safety, trigger, magazine release, main spring housing, grip screws, and magazine are all black in color.

This model has a functional slide that will eject and chamber a round as well as pulling the hammer back. The trigger also functions releasing the hammer when the functional grip safety if squeezed. The thumb safety on this model is only partially operational, it will keep the slide from moving, but it will not prevent the trigger from releasing the hammer.
