Based on the company’s ReX Zero 1 Standard Model, the new Alpha is a match-ready semi-automatic pistol with a slew of upgraded features. Measuring 8.9” long with a 5” barrel, and weighing 39 ozs., the Alpha is built onto a steel frame and has a re-engineered grip with a shorter trigger reach and an undercut trigger guard. Using the same magazines as the original ReX Zero 1, the Alpha features a flared magazine well to help facilitate faster reloads. Meanwhile, lightening cuts have been added to the slide in order to provide faster cycling. Sights consist of a red fiber-optic front paired with a fully adjustable black rear, and for now, the pistol is available only chambered in 9 mm Luger.
