An observant forum poster, warhawke, noticed that “new” STI GP6 pistol bore a striking resemblance to the Slovakian K-100 Grand Power pistol. They are in fact one of the same, although there is no mention of the pistols’ heritage on the STI website (here or here).
RF has known me for a couple of years now. So when he told me to come over and pick up something interesting I was thinking more along the lines of a bottle blonde with chest ink and a couple priors. What I got instead was the Grand Power X-Calibur 9mm pistol. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little let down. Still, it’s a neat looking target pistol. Robert’s invitation may have been a disappointment, the pistol wasn’t . . .
Have any of you ever had a chance to fire this pistol? If not, how good are other firearms made by Grand Power? What are your opinions? How would you rate its:
Reliability
Accuracy
Recoil
Durability
Ability to tolerate abuse (like the glock)
Availability of accessories
Overall Value
