Thank you!
In contrast what the majority of people think, longer and bigger isnt always better. When it comes to guns there are pros and cons about weight in general and heavier is not better in my opinion. Especially if the weight is up front static or it cycles forward during recoil. A 5” gun will be heavier. I dont like it. The balance of a 4.5” gun especiallt for 9mm is the sweet spot and thats why I like the SP01 Shadow, the Stock2 and now the Umbra. I would also have gone with a Redback instead of the Drake of the Phoenix guns.
I havent tested max oal. I only run my regular loaded ammo I’ve been using for many years in all my guns. 121gr frontier fp extreme bullet at 27.8mm. The gun have been reliable so far, but I only put 4500 rounds through it so cant testify to it being used more than that, but I see no reason why it wouldnt be reliable. Its a cool gun with great build quality as far as I can tell. I wouldnt hesitate if you got your eyes on one.
