MPA DS9 Limited Optics Comp – V2 (LOC-V2)
This pistol configuration is designed specifically for USPSA Limited Optics Division.
On May 1st 2023, the USPSA began the Limited Optic Provisional Division. At MPA, we have created the ideal pistol configuration for Top Level Performance for shooters who want to win. That was the “OG” (Original Gun) our LOC – Limited Optics Competition Pistol. Since then, we have done some extensive testing in making that model even faster, and flatter. With that we are proud to introduce the newest edition to the MPA lineup, the LOC-V2!
Our DS Series Pistols are hand built, hand lapped, tuned and ready to perform. Whether your application is shooting 3 Gun, USPSA Comps, Law Enforcement or simply a Shooting Enthusiast, the DS Series Pistols are an outstanding option for these and other applications.
After the pistols are hand built, they go through a rigorous testing and inspection system to ensure only the highest quality products are getting to our customers.
The DS Pistols are designed to shoot flat and fast, making successful target engagement easy for all levels of shooters.
The basis of this DS Pistol is our Hybrid, but with these specific enhancements:
- Stainless Steel Sight Block & Shortened Slide for less muzzle rise – incredibly flat shooting
- All LOC V2 Pistols will have a frame Machined with Thumb Rest Mounting holes. This gives the shooter multiple options for Thumb Support (Slide Stop, Slide Stop Thumb Rest, Frame Mounted Thumb Rest)
- Stainless Steel Aggressive Grip – with Internal Mag Alignment Technology
- Optics Plate (your choice of a multitude of Optic Modules for most of the optics used by competitive shooters)
- Competition Magwell
- 2.0 lbs. Trigger Pull (Other pull weights available)
- Shielded Ambi Safety
- Machined Stainless Steel Trigger Bow
