Default Cco

I know what an "Officer" is and understand that a CCO is a concealed carry version but what really differentiates the two?

As I understand it, a CCO has a commander slide (4.25" barrel) on an officer's frame.

I could be wrong though. I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

Wow, and here I thought this would be one of those "duh" questions. Glad I'm not the only one unsure

Isn't a CCO just a lightweight Officer's model?

A CCO is a Compact frame and a 4 or 4.25" top assembly.

In Colt terms it would be an Officers frame and a Commander top end!!!
