Lipsey’s Exclusive: Ruger RXM COA Edition

Wait 5 sec.

Lipsey's has introduced a new exclusive handgun package, pairing the Ruger RXM platform with a factory-installed Aimpoint COA red dot sight. The result is the Lipsey’s Exclusive Ruger RXM COA Edition, a ready-to-use optics-equipped pistol aimed at modern defensive and range applications. The pistol is chambered in 9mm and offered in both 15-round and 17-round configurations. Buyers can choose between three frame colors: black, gray, and OD Green. Across all variants, the RXM COA Edition features a 4-inch barrel, a Magpul Enhanced grip, and a black serrated front sight, maintaining a consistent baseline while allowing some degree of customization in capacity and appearance. At the center of the package is the Aimpoint COA red dot, mounted at the factory using the A-CUT interface. This mounting system is designed to provide a low-profile fit while maintaining durability under recoil. The optic itself uses a 3.5 MOA dot and is rated for up to 50,000 hours of runtime on a single battery, positioning it as a long-term, always-ready solution for defensive use.Rather than requiring users to source and mount an optic separately, this configuration arrives as a complete system. That approach reflects a broader trend in the handgun market, where manufacturers and distributors are increasingly offering optics-ready or optics-included packages straight from the factory.According to Lipsey’s, the RXM COA Edition is intended to give dealers and customers a versatile, out-of-the-box solution that combines a proven handgun platform with a premium optic. Availability is limited to Lipsey’s distribution network, meaning the pistol will be offered through its nationwide group of federally licensed dealers. With this release, Lipsey’s continues its strategy of exclusive firearm configurations, combining established platforms with sought-after components to create bundled offerings tailored to current market demand.The MSRP is $1,099.00, which I found surprisingly low given how much the Aimpoint COA costs individually.
