Always be sure to know and safely practice firearms safety at all times, being careful to stay aware of all applicable laws in your state, province, or country. Never point a firearm at any thing you don't intend to destroy. Never handle a firearm without checking it for live ammunition first.
i absolutely love the design you chose on your p320 m18. i am looking to eventually do the same concept. I really like 1911 grip etc. My fathers 1911 that i inherited is 40+ years old and shoots so god damn accurate.
Could be wrong here, but you don’t buy a handgun for a nice carrying case. At least I don’t and I’m going to assume 90% of the people buying higher end 2011’s don’t.
I had the same problem with both my 3 in and 4 in Springfield Ronin plus more!! I sent them back to Springfield and they paid both ways and fixed all my problems I had with both guns. Lucky I took them to the range before my life was on the line They were both going to be my carry, I too have a Platypus and have never had a problem other than the front site keeps falling off and love it.
Complaining about it being to easy to shoot dime size groups means maybe just practice on more distant targets. Maybe even far enough that you need to learn the drops at longer range... Just saying
I want one kinda but man i hate that fuckin name for a 1911 xD Regardless of name preferences, they make such sweet lookin 1911s. Im probably gonna buy a p99 for a daily carry tho soon
I'm really surprised they haven't started pumping out all black ones with a different name; only because i recently found out some agencies are allowing it to be used.
I got the new grip design with bull barrel, if it had an integrated comp on it, it would 100 percent compare to a staccato xc and is better than the P in every way. Shot it with XC and atlas, they are better yes, but not thousands of dollars of noticeable difference better. If are not competing professionally, and you don't need that .02 percent difference, save your money buy a Platypus. He is not lying the gun is so good I too also barely shoot mine; it doesn't feel like training, it feels like a cheap trick.
I also love the idea of using a cheap 27-round magpul 'stendo on a fast/accurate gun. It's like having a PDW rather than a mere pistol. I'm thinking about getting a holster for it to run on my chest rig.
I was so bummed that Stealth Arms chose Aluminium for the frame. The fact that they didn't even offer a steel frame option was a huge let down for me. I wanted one for competition shooting, but Aluminium framed competition pistols and I don't mix well. The steel frame for me makes the pistol balance so much better. It allows me to get back on target so much faster due to the weight distribution I get from a steel frame. I'm very stoked for the new Fusion Firearms XP Pro. While the barrel is only 4", the options are really terrific. It takes Glock mags as well. The huge bonus, the hard chromed version is going for $1199 & the black tennifer slide version is $1099..BINGO. Winner winner chicken dinner. Check them out if you care to. The boys testing the pre production models were printing 2" groups at 40 yards off the bench with an SRO. Congrats on that acquisition, it's a seriously beautiful pistol. Cheers
@TheRange7 thanks. I still feel like it's got a good weight balance regardless. I think that the aluminum scratches easier than a steel frame would too. That's kind of a negative.
Good luck with the Fusion firearms, bought one last year and couldn’t wait to get rid of it, nothing but problems. I didn’t do any research before purchasing it & that was my first mistake. Again good luck and i hope it works out for you. I have 2 Plattys and they run great, 2000 plus rounds between them and not one issue.
I bought a GX4 Carry TORO for $308 all in shipped to my FFL. I picked it up this week. Love everything about it except the factory sights. I'm putting a 507K on top tomorrow and hopefully getting out to our range early next week, weather permitting. It'd be real easy to say you paid too much for yours, but prices move up and down weekly on all this stuff. The price swings are ridiculous. I just got really lucky the day I looked online. I use gundeals for price shopping every time I'm looking at pistols or any other related gear. They have a great setup that shows prices from lowest to highest along with shipping rates and links to the sellers. The place where I bought mine for 308 all in, is now charging 405???? It's just goofy to me. Great review and comments. I hope you're able to get your sight deal straightened out. That sounds like something in the slide or frame is misaligned to my lay person brain. Cheers and be safe
You mentioned a “rail adapter thing” that moves the light down a half inch and there is a rail click in. Can you give me more to go on… Name, company, etc… something…
They have recently made price changes in the paint department. Armorer black is the default included color. Any change or additional colors starts at 75.00 and goes up depending on the color, I think white is the most expensive at 200. Inlays and backfills range from 5 to 15 each. If you have seen any of the five color My Little pony rainbow princess monstrosities that people have ordered you will understand why they increased the paint prices!
Does anybody know if this fits in the safari land staccato xc holster with light and optic, I can not find any reliable info on this, it should but I can’t find anyone to confirm it
This is already their "1st gen" pistol. The new ones can be made with new grips and a bull barrel. If you're pinching your hand with the safety, just let the company know and order a single side safety.
Stacatto comes in the same bag. That *is* the "nice gun" presentation. Though I prefer the Canik presentation which is a *really* nice box. The S&W boxes are garbage.
Yeah, I will say the carry bag is much more useful tho, especially for competition guns, it acts as your pistol rug, the box stays in a closet. But maybe they could give us both or a choice 🤷
great video. i picked up an M18 FCU a couple weeks ago and am building around that. bought the Sig gas pedal and .40 s&w Caliber X-change kit so i'd have the full size slide, barrel and 10 rnd mags (thanks Washington :( ). now looking for the right grip. this might be it.
I don’t know why this doesn’t have more views. This video has sold me on buying a the M1811 frame for my M17. Man. Now I wanna dump so much money into my M17.
@@iamnitrox I noticed it too. I have never seen it before, thumbs forward would probably help with muzzle flip and control and your grip would improve overall.
@williamryan9195 I utilize proper grip on all other semi autos. I'm actually faster and more accurate this way for some odd reason with a 1911. It's just a weird thing about my hands.
Maybe the sights are over so far for you is because you are using your left eye to focus not you right one! as I can see in the video. I have one and love it. I recommend it completely. Here I am shooting mine at about 17 yards at a metal tree. not missing one shot. this is a new gun i just sighted in and am not really use to the trigger yet. ru-vid.com6ugJxBl94Ho?si=UpOocZH7PaqA9TB3
@woodknack1 that's Jonathan shooting as well. He's a left handed/ right handed shooter. He's just adapted over the years. He reproduce the problem, though
I don’t know if you want to send it in to Taurus I sent my gx4 carry in few months ago because my front sight screw wasn’t centered so I couldn’t get it out and I’m still waiting for it…
@@GlockFanboy45 Oh man, that sucks. Sorry to hear this, We'll see what happens with mine next week. Last time I had to send in a Taurus for work, they were a tad slow, but at least fixed it. Good luck my friend, cheers.
@@TheRange7wanted to love it I mean it’s a great size reliable awesome ergonomics but wasn’t a fan of the slide wearing so easily and the front site not being able to be fixed in my situation but overall it’ll go bang
I recently purchased one of these and can honestly say that I'm nothing short of totally impressed with it. After about 500 rds with zero malfunctions and great accuracy, I would put it in the same class as my Glocks for much less money... time will tell as far as durability. Great video. PS...I bought it brand new for $300.00
