Oa Defense OA2311FLSZKITHDSSTD17 2311 Full 9x19 17rd 5" Black DLC High Desert Sage Optic Ready 17-4 Stainless Steel Slide High Desert Sage Polymer Grip Ambidextrous
The OA Defense 2311 9x19 full-size duty pistol is built for shooters who demand speed, accuracy, and reliability in a professional-grade platform. This High Desert finish version pairs a black DLC-treated 17-4 stainless steel slide with a High Desert Sage polymer grip, delivering both form and function inspired by OA Defense's Nevada heritage. The optic-ready slide accepts RMR, DPP, and Holosun K/RMSc footprint optics, making it adaptable to your preferred red-dot setup without gunsmithing.
At 5 inches of barrel length and 29 ounces unloaded, the 2311 strikes a balance between shootability and carrability. The 8.50-inch overall length and 1.78-inch width keep recoil manageable while staying true to full-size ergonomics. Ambidextrous controls ensure left- and right-hand shooters alike can run the gun naturally, and the 4.0–4.5 pound trigger breaks clean for accurate follow-up shots whether you're training at the range or in duty scenarios.
This kit goes well beyond a bare pistol. You get three 17-round magazines, four interchangeable slide plates (iron sight cover, RMR, DPP, and Holosun K/RMSc), and Night Fision tritium night sights installed at standard height with intermediate and suppressor-height options included. A cable safety lock, owner's manual, and custom OA Defense range bag round out the box, so you're ready to train or carry immediately.
Built on a 7075 aluminum frame paired with the stainless steel slide, the 2311 is engineered to handle demanding use. Whether you're running it as a duty gun, competition platform, or serious defensive carry, the High Desert finish resists corrosion while the modular optics-ready design keeps you ahead of evolving red-dot standards.
