    I bought one of these 3 weeks ago and I love it! I figured out how to field strip it easily and now I’m lookin at the 10mm 40l model. Great review!! I had the same reaction , the first time
    I shot mine.

    I have the K100, which is the duty gun in that lineup, and the SA trigger beats my competition CZs in stock configuration. Utterly unbelievable, to be honest. I can't imagine how the X-Calibur can possibly improve on what the base gun has.

    Thus is my favorite pistol period...I'm left handed and I do timed drills with my friends and I swear thus is the absolute best gun for competition shooting under 900 dollars....and iv shot alot of czs and other 2000 dollar guns and I donno if I practice mire but I'm beating them with this gun and they got the czs ... this is a amazing gun that has a trigger like a 1911 but da and everything you need to hit an inch target at 15 yrds im serious

    Hi Jenny, that's interesting 🤔, I'm so use to the 1911 safety. You can only apply safety when slide is in battery. That fire arm can be set in full lock back. The rotating breech is also neat. I'd like to see the break down to see just how that barrel locks up. I take it, it doesn't have a feed ramp. Great review.😁👍

    I have had the mk12 model for 3 years, got 5000 rounds thru it. It runs great, no mailfunctions and eats all ammo. Very accurate . They have a mk 23 match model optic ready now, which looks nicer and added extra weight in the dustcover, 300g? Recoil should be even less in that one. Should try the mk23 match model. It's definitely a good bang for the buck

    Being a huge fan of the PX4, I've been considering one of these. It's got it all. Only qualm (if any) is the magazines. Why 15? Why not 17? Maybe offer extensions? About it. That and sight compatibility. No one really makes sights. Or at least, a rear sight. But despite that, Id love one.

  • @roguemodel

    I do not understand how I missed this. I was aware of the Stribog and have one. The Excaliber is a very fine pistol. I guess I just didn't pay attention to European arms. I did my due diligence and studied Arex, Grand Power. I have Girsan, Canik, and Tisas pistols. No one can beat Canik triggers. The first time I shot I could not believe the quality and accuracy of the pistol. I thought it was an $800 gun. Wrong! I was able to speak with the head of Tisas and we had a very nice conversation. European manufacturers understand that they must engineer and construct weapons of high quality. That wasn't always the case. companies located in Slovenia, Slovakia, Lithuania, and Turkey produce weapons to compete with American manufacturers. There is no better example than CZ. I originally snubbed Girsan and Tisas thinking they were inferior companies. I was wrong. These companies are in competition with each other as well as the US, and that is a good thing as it pushes ingenuity and Springfield could learn a thing or two. So who am I to bloviate? I study warfare and conflict, and I wrote my dissertation on Nigeria to answer the question of why the Nigerian army could not defeat a far smaller terrorist and insurgent force. I have 3 masters with one in Military Science. I am not a firearms expert but have been shooting for 50 years and I study weapon performance. Would I take the X'caliber to war? No. The slide begs for fouling (dirt, grime, sand, etc.) in tough conditions. The K-100 is an excellent service pistol and is used by the Slovakian military. Would I take the Springfield Prodigy to war? No. Weapons matter, but what matters more is the quality of the soldier. We have seen this in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.

    Gun manufacturers been feeding us the lousy tilting barrel guns for so long due to cheap productions, that people forget how much more accurate none tilting barrel guns are. but 4 back straps is a waste, they should include extra mag instead.
