1.1 The iP1
1.1.1 Frame with LED and interchangeable backstraps
The frame features interchangeable backstraps in three different sizes to properly fit the hands of
different users. The iP1 pistol comes with the small backstrap installed. Medium and large back-
straps are available as options and can easily be changed by the user. The backstrap is linked to the
backstrap switch, which is activated to communicate with the iW1 wristwatch when the backstrap
is squeezed towards the front of the iP1 pistol. Depending on the status of the iP1 pistol, the LED will
light up in different colors when the backstrap is squeezed towards the front of the pistol:
Green signals that the iP1 pistol is ready to be fired.
Blue signals that the magazine has not been inserted or has not been inserted correctly.
Red signals that the iP1 pistol is not activated and cannot be fired.
1.1.2 Slide with loaded chamber indicator (LCI)
The slide has a loaded chamber indicator (LCI) to comply with the laws of certain states. The upper
opening of the slide serves as a loaded chamber indicator (LCI) by allowing the user to look inside
the chamber to see whether or not a cartridge is loaded.
Although the iP1 pistol has a loaded chamber indicator (LCI) you should never solely rely on
it or your memory to determine whether the iP1 pistol is loaded or unloaded. Always retract
the slide by grasping it at the indented area at the rear of the slide and pulling it fully to the
rear and then visually and physically (with your finger) check to make sure there is not a
cartridge in the chamber.
