Girsan 390451 MCP 35 4.87" 11-Round Stainless Pistol

The Girsan 390451 MCP 35 4.87" 11-Round Stainless Pistol, manufactured by EAA and distributed as SKU 177042, is a compact, reliable semi-automatic handgun built for concealed carry, duty backup, or defensive training applications. Designed with law enforcement and civilian shooters in mind, this platform delivers proven ergonomics and dependable operation in a steel-framed package that balances control with portability. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it ideal for operators who demand longevity in harsh field conditions or extended storage.

The 4.87-inch barrel provides optimal sight radius while maintaining a compact overall profile of 8.6 inches in length, keeping the pistol manageable for both one-handed manipulation and retention drills. The 11-round capacity balances magazine length with practical firepower, and the stainless finish eliminates the need for frequent corrosion maintenance—critical for operators in maritime, humid, or unpredictable environments. At 3.49 pounds, the weight distribution supports controlled recoil impulse and follow-up shot accuracy during high-stress scenarios, while the robust steel frame absorbs felt recoil better than lightweight polymers, reducing shooter fatigue during extended training or qualification courses.

This pistol suits law enforcement officers seeking a dependable secondary firearm, armed security professionals requiring a compact duty platform, and civilians committed to consistent defensive or competitive training. The compact dimensions fit standard inside-the-waistband and appendix carry holsters without printing, while the stainless construction provides the corrosion resistance needed for duty belts exposed to sweat and environmental moisture. Shooters transitioning from steel-framed service pistols will appreciate the familiar ergonomic handling and control characteristics, making this platform an effective bridge between full-size and subcompact categories.
