Personally I've not done any serious group shooting with any of the X9s, all I can tell you is I can shoot 1" groups off hand at 15yds, hit 1/2 IDPA size steel silhouettes at 60yds and full size...

Yes, I used the Fed 147gr FP to do a lot of my testing when I was working on the new design 1911 mags and early reliability testing of the X9 because it was so hard to get to feed well because it's...

I can't remember the last time I had a malfunction with one of my 1911 compacts in 9mm that wasn't ammo related...........and I shoot them a LOT, 600rds per week on average. However during the past 6...

Unlike some people I know hitting the target is important to me :)

You just can't train an old dog new tricks!!! I never got over all the early years and hundreds of thousands of rounds with my Colt Pythons, if you don't get off the trigger on a Python with it's...

All the info we have now is live, more to come over the next two weeks

Extractor is our design to work best with this system

The gun is designed to target the CCW market, so a 4" bbl made the most sense to us, also we have found 4" bushingless cone bbls to be more...

If you can fieldstrip a 1911 you can change them

Just give us time the whole photo, video and marketing crew are working as fast as we can. We had planned a Mar 13 launch and got caught off guard when the new COMBAT HANDGUNS magazine started...

small backstrap and a long trigger

yes

Note, this pistol has the large backstrap, long trigger and a ambi safety

We are mfg almost every component of the pistol in-house in AR, but we are relying on MecGar of Italy for the mag tubes.........once the flow of mag tubes starts I assure you mag availability will...

Because many of the components of this pistol are less expensive to mfg (especially the frame), they take less time to fit up and less time to prep for finish. Less mfg cost = a lower price.

Experts Survey

The questions:

#1 Do you carry on a daily basis?

#2 What is the make and model of your primary carry gun?

#3 If you have more than one make/model you carry list your second...

TX DPS switched from .357 Sig to 9mm recently and he does a lot of training for them

Only Rob Haught, he carries his WC .45 on duty, but uses 9mm for training/off duty carry

I did a survey of some of the most experienced shooters/trainers I personally know and here is the question I asked them all.

Assuming you had to buy your own pistol and ammunition (type of your...

We do most of our training here at the ranch scoring what I call Hackathorn count which is basic IDPA Vickers count, but + 1 second per point down, as GJM mentioned you don't shoot your best score...

Todd is absolutely correct. As I have posted before, the original drill from back in the 80s required a "clean" run to count, if you dropped a point it was no time. When we started playing with the...

Agree, but your talking fairly skilled people, many shooters can't reliably hit a 25yd target, much less score well on it. We use these basic drills to help decide what level class someone needs to...

This is one of my favorite drills to test basic skill

Basic Handgun Proficiency Drill 1

Start Position: Holstered in a true carry holster with hands naturally as sides

Targets Required: 2...

Yes add it

The 5x5 drill is the best I've come up with to test for basic skill level with a minimal # of rounds and the ability to do it on one target. I think it tests:

Basic gun handling/manipulation...

I've been building a database of best times on the 5x5 drill, but in retrospect I should have called for 3 tries and record your 2 best runs. If done this way where basically every run has to count I...
