Key Features
Caliber Performance
Chambered in .44 Magnum, the Cyclops delivers substantial kinetic energy transfer on target. This caliber selection ensures effective mitigation of threats, offering a significant advantage over lower-powered compact firearms.

The heavy-duty construction is engineered to safely contain the pressures generated by the powerful .44 Magnum cartridge.
