Witness2311 CMX XXX Academy Launch Package

EAA and Girsan identify SKU 395162 as a special-edition launch package for Academy Sports + Outdoors. It combines the two-tone Witness2311 CMX XXX pistol with four Check-Mate 16-round aluminum magazines, rather than the two magazines included with base SKU 395062. The 9mm pistol uses a 3.4-inch bushingless bull barrel, a compact 16+1 grip module, an RMSc-footprint optic cut, tuned trigger, automatic firing-pin block in place of a grip safety and slide lightening cuts. EAA publishes a $899 MSRP for the base CMX XXX but does not publish a package MSRP, UPC, fixed production quantity or Academy inventory status. The linked American Rifleman review covers the same CMX XXX pistol platform, but not the Academy distribution or four-magazine package.
