That's a bummer, up north seems to get the good stuff before the US.
-
I ran across this beauty while checking out prices to see what the going rate was for the x-cal. Never heard of this website though.
-
Does anyone know if the Phantom uses the same barrel as the SP-01? I have an Australian length barrel that I'd like to put to use that doesn't fit my custom anymore after I installed the 10x bushing.

This is great news, thanks for the update Kingman! I will rekindle my relationship with my XT.

Found them here, but shipping may be a headache.
Vanniek71,
I've got some Toni systems grips that are wider, I haven't had time to put them in here yet. I'll do it tonight.
Looks like the SSI Scales are topping the charts at 1.334... might try those.Cracked my second set of Copper's this past weekend. Back on the hunt for a palm swell grip that is grippier than the factory rubber/plastic...
They have a palm swell too
Here are the dimensions:
Where can I get a set of those grips?

I got mine there as well. They aren't cheap, but that company is super to work with. Before you order email them and talk with Stefan Menting. He will make the whole process easy. I actually connected with him on Facebook and in the end he just sent me an invoice for the grips and I didn't have to order through the website. Shipping only took ~5-6 days.
Total was $126 USD
Thanks! I hit up Stefan for a set of SP01 Shadow and Stock 3 grips.

I have three of the four... P09, Bersa and Xcal. I'm more accurate with the Xcal and it feels a smidge better in my hand than the P09 and Bersa. All have great triggers, the p09 has the CGW trigger job+some mods of my own bringing the SA down to 2lbs and 5.11lbs. DA. The Xcal has part 52 removed and is 2.3 SA, 5.12 DA. The Bersa is stock and is 3.1/6.13.
Reliability wise P09. However,I don't have enough time with the Bersa... maybe about 500 rounds so far, but no issues. The size of the magazine release on the Bersa is an issue for me though, it's hard to hit. If an extended one isn't offered in the near future it may go on the chopping block.
I also have a CZ shadow custom which I'm as accurate or a little bit more accurate with than the Xcal and it's been totally reliable. The other guys... I have most of them, but would take the CZ shadow custom, P09 or Grand Power Xcal over them. I've never owned the Wilson Beretta... yet.
But in all, it comes down to how it feels in your hand and what your going to use it for. For target/competition shooting, my preference would be the Shadow Custom and Grand Power Xcal, for self defense the P09. That's not saying the P09 wouldn't make a fine competition gun, I just think the other two do it a smidge better.
I'm sure others will have a different take on this though.
Hope this helps you a bit.

2.6 SA, 6.5 DA

Did you buy a wolff reduced power 1911 magazine catch spring?
-
I have a Stock 3 Xtreme, replaced the trigger return spring with a CGW one. My SA went down 5 oz and my DA went down a pound.
-
Totally agree and some support from Bersa or aftermarket would be very welcome. It caught my 12 year old daughters eye... she thought it looked cooler than my X5 lightweight and Stock 3 Xtreme, LOL!
-
It's bigger than both and more rounder than the Stock 3
-
Kingman is a bad influence...
-
For the price any way you look at it, I it's a good deal. Out of the box it's ready to run, but take in consideration the decocker... some might not like it and it doesn't spring back down so you can fire it double action the next shot. You have to manually lower the lever.
-
I would say that it recoils a little bit more than my Grand Power X-cal, about the same as the Stock 3 Xtreme and less than my Shadow custom. Accuracy wise for me, about the same as the Grand Power, Shadow Custom and a bit better than the Stock3.

Shot mine today... I'm liking it, very accurate, the recoil is similar to the Stock 3 I have. I agree with Kingman about the grips, they are slick.
A bit more take up on the SA portion of the trigger than I'm used to but I think it won't be an issue once I get more trigger time with it.
-
Mine came with 5 mags.
-
Picked up mine today, haven't got it to the range yet but the trigger is really nice. My trigger is registering 2.10 SA and 7lbs DA. I like the way it feels in my hand, but the mag release is somewhat flush, small and a bit hard to reach.
-
Great info thanks, where are these being sold at?
-
Thanks Kingman, looking forward to your thoughts once you get more rounds down range and how it compares to the Grand Power Xcal.
-
Looks like it has similar lines and layout as the Grand Power Xcal, does it have a browning tilt type barrel?
-
I don't have a Stock 2 but my Xcal recoil is a little less than my SP01 shadow custom.

I have both also and echo the main statements about the P09 recoiling less than the PPQ M2. But like koteris said, it does seem to come right back to target. I shoot the PPQ a bit more accurately at 25 yards probably do to the longer sight radius. For me, I don't have issues with the slide release lever and the grip fits better in my hands better than anything except for maybe the VP9 and Xcal i have. The only mods I have on the PPQ are a BT Stainless steel guide rod and Dawson sights, my P09 is Cajunized. Trigger pull on the PPQ is a little bit above 4 now.

Good catch, the website selling it is called "BargainDock"
