When you look up the word “innovative” in the dictionary, there is a picture of the Laugo Arms Alien Full Kit Rose Gold next to it. This Rose Gold edition features several gold-coloured parts. It has a gold-coloured magwell, trigger, magazine pin and more. Its alternative appearance not only looks interesting, but there is a world of unique features hidden underneath its intricate design. 

What is immediately noticeable is that the barrel of the Laugo Arms Alien Rose Gold is situated a lot lower than it is in conventional small arms. In fact, this pistol features the world’s lowest bore axis, located just 1.7 mm below the gunner’s grip axis. This results in an almost flat recoil angle with next to no muzzle rise and it therefore ensures that the gun is quickly on target again. The 122 mm (4.8 inch) barrel is also part of the frame, which ensures that it does not move during the firing cycle. This creates a whole where successive shots are extremely accurate. 

There’s a slide on the Laugo Arms Alien Full Kit Rose Gold which resembles that of any other handgun at first glance, but it is immediately apparent that this is certainly not the case upon closer inspection. The slide only moves on the sides and the top plate is completely disconnected. This results in a fixed top plate in which the sights always remain firmly in place and therefore have less stress to endure. The sights are fixed to the top plate and it is incredibly easy to replace and thus switch sights. The slide works by means of a delayed gas piston system, which ensures that the slide only starts moving as soon as the bullet leaves the barrel. 

What sets the Alien apart even further from standard small arms is its trigger system. The safety is located in the trigger by means of a central blade that ensures the weapon can only be fired if it is pressed. When the trigger is pulled, the hammer comes into action. This hammer is part of the top plate and it has an ingenious mechanism that only releases the hammer when the slide is completely closed. A handy indicator in the top plate indicates when the hammer is cocked. 

To completely customize the firearm, it features interchangeable backstraps, interchangeable grip plates, an adjustable rear sight and a Weaver/Picatinny rail located on the underside. In addition, the Laugo Arms Alien Full Kit Rose Gold includes an ambidextrous magazine catch.
