Developed and manufactured by nighthawk, the T3 pistol continues the design of the M1911, but has been improved in many details, and its shorter socket seat makes the pistol easy to hide under clothes, but the power and accuracy are not reduced. In general, the t3 is an excellent pistol, suitable for police law enforcement and civilian use.
The perma-kote surface coating used in the t3 pistol is a ceramic-based material that effectively protects metal parts without corrosion even after 5 000 hours of immersion in salt water, and this light black coating material is also self-lubricating. The perma-kote anti-corrosion coating on the T3 pistol is 4 times thicker than other pistols, which of course also increases manufacturing costs. In order to coordinate the overall color of the whole gun, except for the barrel, lock sleeve and recess cap, the other visible parts are black.
The barrel is made of race-grade stainless steel, and the muzzle is basically flush with the lock sleeve and slightly retracted. The lock sleeve can be removed by hand, no wrench is required, and no tools are required for the full gun to decompose.
The Nighthawk T3 pistol uses a heinie mechanical sight with trijicon's tritium aiming point embedded in it. The general pistol has 2 tritium points on the notched shot door, while the T3 pistol has only 1 - which is also the highlight of the gun. The front crosshairs are fixed by a dovetail groove, in line with the design trend. The top and rear of the sleeve are engraved with a serrated pattern that has a non-slip effect. The sleeve side is engraved with narrow stripes with a certain angle behind the sleeve, which play a non-slip role when pulling the sleeve backwards, and these exquisitely designed anti-slip lines are much better than the shoddy anti-slip lines on some imitation m1911 pistols at present.
The rear of the t3 pistol is beautifully designed, with an elongated knurled hammer, a manual bumper, a wide grip safety, etc., and a horizontal anti-slip pattern engraved on the rear side of the grip, which is very compatible with the pattern on the door and sleeve. The horizontal non-slip texture feels slightly better than the knurled one. The front of the grip is engraved with a knurled non-slip pattern and has a density of 25 rows per inch (25.4 mm).
The grip guard plate has a serrated non-slip pattern, a protruding edge in the middle, and a pattern on the front and back of the grip, which may feel stiff when holding for a long time. However, young people may like this rough but non-slip grip. Most of the edges and corners on the T3 pistol are chamfered, aesthetically pleasing, and do not hook holsters or injure hands.
