Lone Wolf Launches New Pistol Line

Lone Wolf Arms a company known as a leader of innovation in the Glock aftermarket, is proud to announce the Lightweight Tactical Defense (LTD) pistol line. With more than two decades of experience providing aftermarket solutions to enhance both performance and aesthetics of the Glock-pattern pistol, Lone Wolf Distributors has implemented these into a complete pistol.


Unlike many other Glock-pattern alternatives on the market, the LTD is not the result of simple geometry changes, or polishing of new old-stock parts, but rather the culmination of decades of experience. Lone Wolf Arms has seen trends rise and fall, fielded thousands of customer comments and questions, and learned what truly improves the platform. The LTD is the culmination of that experience and provides the same capacity as its inspiration, but thanks to the Timberwolf® Frame, offers a slimmer, more natural feel. Specification junkies will also note that the LTD pistols are also lighter than the original. Critical ounces have been removed from the slide for a pistol that cycles quicker, recoils less, and carries more comfortably.

First to be released in the line are two slide options in the Glock 19 size range, and yes, they take Glock magazines. 

Key Features

Two slide variations available in nitride or stainless finishBoth variations offer reduced reciprocating mass resulting is both quicker cycling and less perceived recoil than the Glock 19.
Generous, radiused undercut of the Timberwolf frame eliminates “Glock knuckle”, permits a higher grip for reduced perceived recoil, and permits larger-handed shooters to enjoy the concealability of a compact firearm.
Relieved-radius tang assists in a higher grip effectively lowering bore axis while also distributing recoil impulse safely across the web of the hand without beating on thumb knuckle. Extended beavertail shields the hand from slide movement and disperses recoil impulse.
 Low-profile magazine well accelerates reloads and keeps fingers and palms at a safe distance; no more pinched fingers!
The Timberwolf frame’s grip angle is well known as one of the most naturally-pointing designs on the market. This American design makes pointing the pistol as innate as pointing a punch.

As We See It at Paragraph 4

While we didn’t get a ton of time on this platform, the 150 rounds that we did shoot through it ran flawless. We threw multiple brands of ammunition in various stages of quality through the Lone Wolf Arms LTD using several different brand magazines and it chewed it all up.

The point and shoot aspect of this pistol felt quick and natural. It is very similar to a G19 pistol but feels like an upgraded version of one.

My only complaint about this pistol was with the flared magazine well and without the backstrap swell installed, the pistol was too small for my hand. Take this with a grain of salt though, my hands are the size of a large ogre. If your hands are even someone “normal sized” you’ll be just fine.

Unless your hands are the size of an ogre, you’ll be fine with the grip size.

I was pleased to find that it fit in numerous holsters that I have for G19’s, including a duty holster I have from Alien Gear.

If you like the Glock compatible platform but want something a little bit different and already customized, this pistol would be a great option.
