EVO-E9-LW.
The lighter, optic-equipped E9: an aluminum frame, shortened and thinned 4-inch slide, Holosun green dot, and familiar 1911 controls in a pistol weighing approximately 30 ounces.
Less weight. A direct optic. The E9 idea carried forward.
The EVO-E9-LW keeps the 4-inch shortened and thinned slide of the steel-frame EVO-E9, then substitutes a lightweight aluminum frame and adds a Holosun SCS green-dot sight. The finished pistol weighs approximately 30 ounces with an unloaded magazine—about five ounces less than the all-steel EVO-E9.
A Chen Gen2 magwell adds a full 360-degree funnel without increasing the frame height. Twenty-five LPI checkering and Labyrinth grips provide the handling surfaces, while the 7-top slide and dedicated front and rear serrations preserve the visual identity of the E9.
The underlying operating details remain familiar: external extractor, bull barrel, flat-wire recoil spring system, easy-to-change front sight, and traditional 1911 controls.
Choose a completed EVO-E9-LW if one is available, or talk with our sales team about current availability and the configuration that best fits what you want.
Changes you can account for.
Aluminum frame
The lightweight frame brings the pistol to approximately 30 ounces with an unloaded magazine while retaining full-size grip dimensions.
Holosun SCS optic
The slide-mounted green dot provides a precise aiming point without turning the pistol into an oversized competition setup.
Chen Gen2 magwell
The Gen2 design provides a 360-degree magazine funnel without adding to the overall height of the frame.

Six views show both sides of the EVO-E9-LW and the details that distinguish it: the optic, barrel and guide rod, Chen Gen2 magwell, and lightweight-frame presentation.
