The MPA30T is a top-cocking 9mm pistol from MasterPiece Arms' Defender series, designed with a focus on innovation and user comfort. This model features a machined aluminum lower receiver, which offers a lighter weight compared to previous designs, along with a more ergonomic grip. The aluminum lower also integrates practical features like a QD flush cup for a single-point sling and a stock interface for attaching a rifle stock or an SB15 brace, enhancing the pistol's versatility. The MPA30T is equipped with a 4.5 or 5.5-inch threaded barrel, allowing for the attachment of suppressors or other muzzle devices, with the thread size being 1/2 x 28. This pistol includes a 30-round polymer magazine, adjustable front and rear sights for precision aiming, and a quick magazine release for faster reloading. The traditional lever safety selector ensures reliable safety control, while the durable Cerakote finish adds a layer of protection to the firearm. The MPA30T ships in a polymer carrying case and comes with a lifetime guarantee, underscoring MasterPiece Arms' commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. A non-threaded barrel model is available as a special order, catering to those who prefer a different configuration. This American-made handgun is designed to meet the needs of both recreational shooters and professionals, offering a robust and customizable platform.
