Wilson Combat has a new “Division 77” series of pistols, with the Project 1 being the first release. Here is the information they provided:
Introducing Project 1—where precision engineering meets unrivaled performance. Designed to be the ultimate solution for speed, accuracy, and reliability.
This revolutionary unveiling of a new standard for Wilson Combat adorns an all-new innovative optic pin system that allows seamless transitions between RMR, RMSC, and DeltaPoint Pro footprints. An increased rear slide width and a relocation of the optic to the rear of the slide for unobstructed chamber access are ideal for SROs and longer red dots. A precision-cut ported slide seamlessly fits our integrated compensated barrel, engineered precisely for low recoil and quick target acquisition. Perfect ergonomics and function tailored for speed and accuracy.
Project 1 will ship with the cover plate removed, requiring only the installation of the correct optic pin set that matches the footprint of the desired optic to be mounted. Thus, eliminating the need for a “co-witness” setup, the red dot option will come standard with no front sight mounted and front sight plug installed, allowing for an easy, hassle-free setup and a clear, unobstructed optic view.
Also featuring our newly designed cover plate with dovetail rear sight and integrated firing pin stop. This unique design allows for a stronger iron sight platform that allows the user to transition from optics to iron sights without having to re-zero or drift the rear sight. The integrated firing pin stop gives the cover plate more integrity by creating a sturdy cover plate/iron sight platform that is movement-free, maintaining zero through removal and re-installation.
Project 1 is further enhanced with our Advanced “RPG” Guide Rod. This revolutionary design allows for a longer one-piece guide rod, which enhances reliability and ease of use. The reduced diameter allows the guide rod to tilt out of the slide assembly for easy removal and installation, allowing removal of the guide rod without removing the reverse plug. The longer shaft has shown increased recoil spring reliability and longevity and an all-around improvement in the firearm’s function.
Project 1 comes standard with our integrated magwell, flat trigger, a PVD-coated barrel, and slide parts for enhanced durability, aggressive TRAK pattern front and back strap, and user-changeable TRAK pattern grip panels.
Our new 18-round base pad has precisely machined grooves on both sides of the extended pad to facilitate faster, smoother mag changes and gives the shooter a solid point of contact for removing the magazine during high-stress situations, training and competition settings.
The first 100 Project 1 pistols will include a collectible metal case and commemorative challenge coin.
Their promotional video is below. I see the pistol with a light on it… wonder if they need precision-fit holsters for this configuration? –Shan
