Training Replica: CARACAL F

The Caracal F is a modern, striker-fired, polymer-framed pistol designed by a team led by Wilhelm Bubits (who also designed the Steyr M and worked on the original Glock). It is the full-size flagship of the Caracal line, originally manufactured in the United Arab Emirates and now produced in the United States as the Enhanced F.

Key Design Elements

• Extremely Low Bore Axis: The Caracal F features one of the lowest bore axes of any modern striker-fired pistol. By keeping the barrel closer to the shooter's hand, it directs recoil straight back into the arm rather than upward, significantly reducing muzzle flip.

• Quick Sight System (Optional): One of its most famous features is the proprietary Quick Sight system. On these models, the rear sight is located in front of the ejection port rather than at the back of the slide. This puts both sights on a single focal plane for faster target acquisition at combat distances.

• Minimalist Controls: The pistol has a very "snag-free" exterior with low-profile slide stops and an ambidextrous magazine release. It uses a "Short Double Action" trigger with a consistent weight and a short, tactile reset.

• Internal Chassis: The pistol utilizes a steel internal sub-chassis that houses the trigger mechanism, which increases rigidity and durability while allowing the polymer frame to remain lightweight.

• Safety Suite: It features a triple safety system: an integrated trigger safety, an internal firing pin safety, and a drop safety. It also includes a visible cocking indicator at the rear of the slide.
