@@FeWolf Thank you, yes I spent 15 years on active duty in the Army, went to Afghanistan and Iraq.

I did not hesitate to purchase this firearm as I had been waiting for this review to come out. I was impressed by the fact that you mentioned that you have shot over 400 different firearms and this is one of your favorites. Additionally the spinner target results, as well as, the practical accuracy results were impressive. It's also worth mentioning that the shot placements on the circles are some of the best that I have seen. My main reason for purchasing this firearm is to enable me to allow new shooters to use a 9mm pistol that will have a softer recoil (with the rotating barrel) while using the Sterling ammo. Thanks for all you do for us in narrowing down our purchasing decisions to make the best use of our money.

After receiving this pistol I disassembled it to clean it. I spent an hour trying to reassemble it. I finally took off the recoil spring and practiced putting the slide back on without the tension, but it was still extremely difficult to put the slide back on. You have to push the back of the slide down in order to press the hammer down beyond its normal pulled back position. What a nightmare to put back together. This is 😊nothing like a Walther PPK reassembly. Absolutely the worst pistol to ever reassemble! If I had known this I would not have ever purchased this pistol. Totally disappointed with the engineering though that went into the pistol in regard to its care and maintenance.

A Q100 Vs K100 should be nice to see....

For red dot lovers: I was able to mount a full size Holosun EPS 6moa using the provided RMSc plate. It required a super-light filing of the front posts to get the optic to hit the bottom of the place to the point you cannot see any light between the optic and the plate. Also - I was able to get GP’s suppressor height sights which get you a nice low 1/3 co-witness. Global Ordnance should stock the sights shortly. What a great gun!!! (I may also try to get a custom plate made as the looks can be better - definitely not a must)

Yeeaaah, you're definitely shooting better than in the bunker at Grand Power

Environmental and personal factors indeed impact performance.

Very nice...

The 4.25" barrel and 15 round mag and action that is different and smoother than a Browning tilt action, actually reminds me of my Beretta 92 compact from LTT

Great gun, I have been looking to get one .. I love my Grand Powers over all I have and have shot.. I even like it over my colt.. 👍👍

Thank you, I 've had some practice.

Have you found any holsters that work with it?

I bought my first Grand Power last Christmas and loved it, is a K100 X-Trim. I am wondering if they are making that model in the mark 23 model. And I would also love to get my hands on other calibers like 40s&w and 357sig. I saw a while back those calibers listed on the website but I haven't seen actually any gun on those calibers.

@GBGuns

Ай бұрын

The X-Trim models may come to the Mk23 line in time. As to other calibers, you'll have to ask Global Ordnance as they decide what's imported to the US.

Great review of yours. We thank you again for sharing your knowledge on the Grand Power line of firearms. Grand Power firearms are definitely well engineered and manufactured. We wish you and Teya a great day 😁🙏

I'm looking forward to the side by side with dots. Good sound, target cam on point and in focus. What is the highest pound count you have on a Grand power?

@GBGuns

Ай бұрын

The target camera was the old main camera. It was retired because it got too unreliable. We get what we get with it. The most rounds I have through a Grand Power would likely be about 10,000 through a K100 or 7,000 through an X-Calibur, but that's nothing compared to the rental gun in Slovakia that has over 120,000 documented rounds with only spring replacements done to it.

I'm not going to lie, I was a little nervous about them changing the way the barrel goes round and round (lockup) but looks like they nailed it. Wouldn't hesitate to grab another.

@@ggrandcz The P1/Q1 is the closest to the Glock 19 Grand Power makes. You either get a 3.66" or a 4.25" barrel. 4.25" for those who want proper hollow point performance and a longer sight radius/smoother recoil umpulse, or sub4" for those willing to sacrifice for weight savings and concealment.

I've been interested in Grand Power for a while now, especially the K100, P11, and P1. I just saw on their website a model P1S MK23, which I really like. After some time on their site I can't seem to find either model with a decocker. Not necessarily a deal breaker, but I do prefer them. I believe you did a video some time ago on a variant of the K100 that did have a decocker. Is that no longer in production?

The decockers are still in production, but are not currently imported. If you want one let Global Ordnance know. I've been telling them for years that people want decockers but I am only one voice (even if I represent hundreds of comments). It's time they get those hundreds of emails.

Interesting. I haven't shot them all, but of the 400 or so handguns I've reviewed I can only think of a handful of guns that do it. I love it as a feature and used it to my advantage in a few training courses. It's easy enough to slack the firing thumb over the bolt catch so that the impact hits it anyways.
