GROT grip, itself regarded as one of the
most comfortable on the market.
True to its name, the MPS is modular.
Like a number of modern pistols, it uses
an internal serialized chassis that houses
the trigger group and slide rails — the se
-
rialized element — while the part that tra-
ditionally is the frame is essentially a poly-
mer grip module that serves as a housing
and magazine well and does not carry the
rearm's serial number or require purcha-
se paperwork. This approach, increasingly
common among manufacturers, greatly
expands customization options compared
to a classic stamped or forged frame.
Unlike many similar modular pistols, the
MPS offers interchangeable backstraps
— slip-on grip panels that alter the shape
and volume of the grip's rear and sides.
They come in three sizes: Small, Medium
and Large. A four-slot Picatinny rail sec
-
tion is molded into the frame under the
barrel in the usual place.
The slide is a conventional steel slide
with serrations reminiscent of the VIS
100M1. Fixed metal sights — a front post
and a rear notch — are dovetailed into the
slide and use a three-dot sighting system.
For low-light use the pistol can be ordered
with phosphorescent dots or with tritium
vials.
A cut in the slide in front of the rear si
-
ght allows mounting a micro-red-dot; the
cut is covered by a two-screw dust plate
as standard. Mounting plates (adapter
plates) are available as accessories to t
popular micro-dot footprints: DeltaPoint,
Romeo 01, Venom, RMR, Shield.
