    Differences in Range Officer Models

    Friends, I am considering a 4" 9mm Range Officer for a carry weapon. Will someone please point out the differences between the Compact and Champion models? Thanks

    The Compact is built on an Officers ACP-size frame, with a shorter grip that holds one less round in .45 ACP. Otherwise, they look very similar.

    Thank you. The grip may be a little short for me, then. The Champion would be the size I need.

    Yes, on the Champion. Purchased one for carry and it shoots great and is easy to carry.

    I have a Compact model and have been pleased with it. I'd want to handle each if I were purchasing one now. After 2500 rounds it has been reliable and easy to carry.
