The PDP Full Size 4.5-inch is a 9mm striker-fired pistol with a black steel slide over a tan polymer frame. It has an 18+1 capacity, a 4.5-inch barrel and an optics-ready slide. It weighs 26.9 ounces and measures 8.1 inches overall. Standard sights, a textured polymer grip and an integrated trigger safety are included, and two magazines come in the box.

A duty-size 9mm with a 4.5-inch barrel suits a shooter who wants a balanced sight radius and a larger magazine for range practice, training or defensive use. The two-tone finish is an appearance choice and does not change how the pistol works. The federal purchase steps are the same across the country: a licensed dealer, Form 4473, a background check and a minimum age of 21. About a third of states add rules on permits, waits or capacity.
