However, I do not recommend this as a habit.

The double action trigger does allow for РІР‚Сљsecond strikeРІР‚Сњ capability if a cartridge fails to light on the first hit from the firing pin. I anticipate that unless required by the rulebook, most shooters will opt to carry this handgun with the hammer cocked and safety on. This is something I have grown to expect on most DA/SA handgun designs, but on the X-Calibur the length of pull and the angle of the trigger at its furthest forward position makes is difficult to get an accurate/fast trigger pull. However, the double action trigger pull was long and heavy at almost nine pounds. We had no problem getting some accurate groups. The single action trigger pull on the X-Calibur was a bout 3.5 lbs. If you mess it up, you can easily replace the lever. Since the safety levers are a field-replaceable part, it should be a simple matter to use a rotary tool and grind the polymer to your preferred shape. It is frustrating for shooters who are used to a 1911 platform. The РІР‚СљpaddleРІР‚Сњ extended to far to the rear of the lever and makes it difficult to re-apply the safety without altering the shooting grip. However the wide lever is just a tad too wide. This gave me the best mix of security and control. During our evaluation I decided to use the slim lever on the right and the wide lever on the left. Both slim and wide levers for left and right were included. The safety levers on the X-Calibur are end-use swappable. Transitioning to РІР‚Сљweak sideРІР‚Сњ one handed drills are as simple as can be. Left handed shooters will love this handgun. Even the magazine release is a mirror image. The pistol is fully ambidextrous with all controls duplicated on both sides of the handgun. The X-Calibur is a double action/single action design that allows for РІР‚Сљcocked and lockedРІР‚Сњ single action carry.

At first look, the X-Calibur looks like a mix of custom, competition and tactical in one pistol. Eagle Imports is the US Importer for Grand Power, a Slovakian company. Eagle Imports contacted us last year and asked us to review the Grand Power X-Calibur.
