A “factory” configuration Nighthawk Custom Falcon Commander is an all-steel 4.25”-barreled, single-action, recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol. Because Nighthawk is a custom gunmaker, however, editors opted for an aluminum frame, which brought the overall weight down to 32 ozs. and increased portability. Like many high-quality custom pistol, the Falcon Commander comes with a commensurate hefty MSRP, but its well-appointed features prove it worthy of both sticker price and high accolades.
