| The Pistol Dynamics X-O was designed to fill a niche in the 1911 market that favours bull barrel pistols. However, the very nature of the system left much to be desired in our view and we sought a way to stabilize the barrel more effectively during the firing cycle and also for a way of retarding the timing so that the propensity of the system to open early was alleviated. The result is the X-O with the Active Reverse Plug , a unique system that you can learn more about here. | |||||||||||||||||
| The Pistol Dynamics X-O is favoured by shooters who prefer not to carry tools to field strip the pistol. This 1911 variant is ideal for those who believe in simplicity of design. The ARP system integrated into the pistol places constant upward pressure on the barrel, both in and out of battery. This helps the chamber end of the barrel to bias toward the feed ramp saddle of the frame when out of battery and to maintain pressure on the muzzle end when the gun is closed.
One of the major benefits of the ARP from a tactical standpoint is that when the pistol is out of battery the barrel no longer rattles due to the fact that it is always under pressure from the reverse plug plunger. The X-O is available in two sizes; a 4.5" slide on a full size frame which produces a very well balanced practical handgun and a 4" slide on a compact frame making it ideal for practical carry. |
