The Girsan MC14T Tip-Up .380 ACP is a compact pistol with a Black Cherry slide on a black frame (brand part no. 390865). The barrel tips up for loading, so there is no slide to rack, which suits shooters who have trouble racking a slide. Girsan builds the MC 14T with a 4.5-inch all-steel barrel and slide and an ambidextrous safety. It carries 13 rounds in the magazine and is sized for concealed carry or a nightstand.

Key Specifications

• Caliber is .380 ACP, a mild-recoiling cartridge that is easy for newer shooters to control.
• Barrel length is 4.5 inches, long enough to build velocity from the .380 case.
• Magazine capacity is 13+1, a high count for a pistol this compact.
• The tip-up barrel releases for loading, so you can chamber a round without racking the slide.
• An ambidextrous manual safety is fitted, so right- and left-handed shooters operate it equally well.
• The barrel and slide are all steel, which adds durability and weight to tame the small cartridge.
• The grips are ambidextrous composite panels that give a secure hold in either hand.
