My Shadow Systems MR920 Setup | Better than a Glock 19?
If you have to alter the gun the gun is not for you.
When you have giant man hands sometimes you don’t have options with guns. This is only compact where my hand fully fits on the frame and it barely fits. So if I have to modify it for it to function 100% then i am going to do it.
But what if we love to spread hate? 😉
Great review. Elastics usually have rubber threads that rot with use and humidity. It won't be difficult to have it replaced if it fails on you . Cheers!!!
As a person who has used the the Walther pdp pro sd in a competition the slide lock cut isn't a bad idea. The slide lock is so big in the heat of the moment I pressed down on it and caused me to hear a click instead of a bang. I haven't gotten in gun fights, but if you are about to shoot, and don't know your empty I'm guessing that would get you killed potentially if it's a carry or home defense this is a good point and should be recognized, also it could have been because I don't shoot it enough: but great video keep it up.
Can’t decide between this or the incog X from safari land! Any one want to give me their two cents?
I have no experience with the incog but this one is comfortable as can be. Conceals my Glock 19 so well.
Small strap fills close to 1911
35 ain’t old haha
Come to find out I went to a specialist and my back was 3 degrees off center so I felt a lot older than your typical 35 year old lol 😂
Thanks for another vid, man. I always look forward to them! God bless!
I love that state, but it's gun laws are horrible. His handgun has to be registered at his local police department and they have red flag laws now too, thanks to Stretchen Gretchen.
Yea Whitmer is an epic nightmare of a governor. This whole state is corrupt. We are a republican state but somehow the democrats always have more votes which I am calling total BS
@@MichiganDad Wayne F'kin county
What’s up Michigan Papa! I would say, Tier 1 Concealed makes the best holsters on God’s green Earth. 👍
Have you tried the DPM recoil reduction springs? I they really work. I have them in all of my pistols now.
I have not. I will have to look into them
Is there an updated video after some time wearing it?
That was it. I wore it for a few weeks to months before that video
I really want to get a ZR Tactical guide rod and spring for my Full Size 5 inch PDP. I also saw a video where they say the 15 lb. spring will work for factory loads whether it’s 115, 124 or 147. But the thing is, I prefer to carry +p rounds for my defensive rounds. Either 124 Gold Dots or 12r HST’s. They recommend the 17 lb. for +p loads. The 15 lb. MAY work fine with +p but I figure why risk a malfunction in a self defense scenario when you need reliability the most. But even with the 17 lb. spring, it’s still lighter than stock. You may not get as much recoil reduction, but at least it!s a stainless steel guide rod. And metal is better! 😎
I was just going to ask about that.
I have the 15lb captured ZR Tac spring on my PDP Compact. I carry Hornady Critical Duty, no issues, no issues with Federal HST either, I can run 115 and 124 grain factory loads no issue, haven't used 147 grain factory loads, so I can't say about those.
And to clarify, I carry my gun daily and have had the ZR tactical spring since March last year. 0 issues
How much was that spring n does it shoot the 124gran ammunition t0
$75 … CZcams doesn’t like when we post prices. Yes any kind of factory ammo is good to go 115, 124, and 147s. I tested them all with no malfunctions
@@MichiganDad I understand n.i appreciate it
My PDP Compact is a fricken laser beam. I have added the ZR tactical 15# stainless steel guide rod/spring. Also added the Lok Grips Black cerakote brass back strap. It really balances the gun nicely. Considering buying the 4.6” threaded barrel and a Herrington Arms comp to flatten the shooting even more. Great gun right out of the box. Even better with a few tweaks.
I would 100% agree this gun is amazing right out of the box. I would say the recoil makes it 20x better and this gun is easily the most accurate gun I own or I least I shoot it the best especially out to distance 👌
Great video. I like the Vedder Holsters V3 gun belt and the Hunter Constantine Carry Belt. I like to carry the P30sk. My pinky does hang off the end and I’ve pinched myself reloading but I haven’t found a better pistol that offers better combination of concealability, shoot ability, and comfort.
I have a war poet cr920, can I just buy the cr920 frame or Glock 43x/48 frame? Also subbed to the channel to a fellow Michigander!
If you can find a frame. Shadow doesn’t sell the frame by itself. And I’m not sure about the 43x frame with the cr920 slide. You can try it. But I have no experience with that 👍
I picked up the hunter Constantine one and it's amazing i am only 140lbs and with the belt i can not conceal my Glock 45 np amazing belt
hey man, if ur not goona run the leg strap, (i never have) you gotta pick up an UltiClip and attach it to the two holes on the face plate, its def a must. i keep its it in place and is the only way u can properly one hand draw under pressure
@@mattflame9046 I’ve heard of that but I have bigger issues on deciding what gun to use the enigma for lol 😂
Will the firearm with a light attached to it fit in the holster along with the optic?
Yea for sure 👍 you just need a holster that is light bearing. I know phlster has one they sell. I think it’s called the floodlight
@@MichiganDad Ty brothe
I wonder which would be better for my baby sized hands the regular p frame or the x frame
I would still say the X frame. The p frame will only fit two of your fingers unless you go with the extended mag.
@@MichiganDad that’s what I thought I’m also considering mr920P as well
@@chrisradford688 In my opinion the MR920P feels way better to shoot in terms of recoil management. It’s just a touch bigger to carry.
Same color burnt bronze😢 all scratched up trying to restore it lmk if you have paint match numbers or such
Can't wait for Shadow Systems to come out with a CR920XP
It's out already. Omw to pick mine up from my local shop. $889..
That's a ton of money. You can buy a basic looking oem Style slide like that with an rmr cut for about a hundred bucks. Save your Original.Just borrow the pots out of it.Stick 'em on the rmr slide And you're off.
I've been on the glock store website.I find them to be very pricey.
That’s nice and all but I don’t trust aftermarket slides. Had one break on me. Not all slides are created equal
Does this work for bigger guys? Got a bit of a dad bod and some holsters can cause some pain
The standard belt will fit up to a 46” waist. If you buy the upgraded sports belt, that belt fits up to a 50” waist.
Suuuubed. Solid video. Liked the positive message at the end too. Thx dude.
Wager next time, brother…
@@benbreinholt1159 Just doing a video on my experience. Not comparing one company to another.
Very informative video as always. I just sent back the Viktos Upscale 3 I ordered as well. I decided against the Upscale XL and opted for a 5.11 LV10 2.0 that was on clearance. I've run sling bags on and off for years but find I have a bad habit of overloading them. I'm looking forward to comparing the LV10 to my Vertx transit and older Maxpedition Kodiak
Now I really only use it for the range. I’ve narrowed my edc down to the soc P fanny pack if I’m carry off body
How I can order it to canda
Not sure I would ask the company
Buy the right gun and you will not need to do anything.
The original 19x did not have a mos version so you had to cut it for an optic. They just started making them recently.
I’m right wing, 2a advocate and despise libtards…but I must callout that that thin blue line flag is a disgrace to our American flag and constitution.
I just got a 48 mos I'd rather have the longer barrel than comp
Both of them work well. Matter of personal preference 👍
I seen this holster on friends and when I went on line to purchase the price almost doubled after adding on accessories and picking a nicer material I stopped the order process as I just don’t think it’s worth over $150 with the options I wanted.
@@brianusa394 Yea this holster is definitely not worth $150. Mine as well go up to an axis elite or apx for that price
Sorry, but the issue is with your back, not the belt.
👍👍
man i hope when they come out with the comped version the comp isnt that obnoxiously long
It’s actually the perfect size they just need to put two ports it in. But I would agree for a single port comp it is very long. I want to say the XR920P comp is shorter so maybe they have made it shorter for the CR920XP
@MichiganDad I would love if they made it similar to the mr920p/xr920p comp. It would be perfect.
The cr920p also comes with steel mags ..both my cr920 war poet and cr920p came with steel mags.
If you get a chance the SA Hellcat Pro Comp is very accurate reliable and controllable. I have owned all 3 guns. HC Pro comp eats everything.
Shadow systems actually does use different sized back straps for MR/XR/DR models but chose not to do that for CR for some reason. Wish they did though.
I know they do. I said it bc they don’t for the micro compacts. Which was the whole point of the video lol
Waiting on the new tier 1 concealed APX holster review!
It’s on its way hopefully soon! Can’t wait to test it out 🔥
@@MichiganDad got mine last week absolutely love it the cant on the mag is amazing
I still have trouble with jamming 17 rounds in my X macro and when I do it occasionally causes jams so I only EDC 16 plus one. My XR920P is fantastic and comes with multiple backstraps. Have the CR920XP on order and hope it comes out soon.
Right on my man. Yea 16 plus one is the correct way to run it. XR is a full size grip so it should come with back straps. Btw I want the XR920P so bad, looks like a fun gun to edc. The micro guns need to come with back straps too, it bugs me that most of them don’t
Good video. Someone brought up a good point in comments on another video. Theives are really good at unlatching quick release straps and running away with them, like in a large crowd. I dont really deal with that where I live, but I will be putting a bit of tape over that buckle..just in case.
I would say that person is not aware of their surroundings. It’s easier to be a thief bc everyone’s head is buried in their phones. If your head is up and scanning your environment like you should be then that will not happen 👍
Have you had any issues with the “Bluing”. Would definitely like this choice over a full cerakote and lose the Glock factory finish. Thx!
No issues I mean my optic has been sitting on it since it was done and no rust 👍 unless you want to change the color I would recommend the bluing
@@MichiganDad much appreciated brother. Looks great!
Shadow Systems already have the comp version they are just like every company trying to milk the CR920X first.
I know … lots of companies do that. Makes sense from a business standpoint
I find the leg leash to be very comfortable, no issues at all. Thanks for the great review
Comfort wasn’t the issue. I wanted quick on and quick off while I was driving. I’m a teacher and was going in and out of schools where I couldn’t wear it. Traveling between two different schools each day I needed that quick on quick off setup.
Im working on getting a Sig p365x macro comp for the channel. Do you know if there are any companies that make a ported barrel for that gun? I feel like that would be an easy way to reduce muzzle rise even further and be competitive with the new Springfield offering.
Parker Machine comp for the macro has been making waves lately. I wanted one for my PDP but I’d have to save up for that one lol 360.00 is up there for a barrel comp combo
@MichiganDad well, I want to keep the built-in comp on the slide and just change the barrel to a longer one with ports.
@@YourFavoriteLibertarian To be honest if you want the comp I would go with a 365 slide w/ the Parker machine comp. I wasn’t a big fan of the macro w/ the integrated comp. I did not like the short barrel it comes with. Idk I was never a fan of the macro so I never looked into upgrading it. Looking to trade it for another gun I want to review lol
Radian will do it.
@@toddtzm should be out soon.
Hey man, another good video as always. I just wanted to drop you a line, I know it's a little late, but... I have actually made a change as well. I'm a Glock fanboy, I will not lie. And I have struggled for a while between the compacts, subcompacts, and the micros, like the 43x. But a couple of weeks ago, in no small part based on your reviews, I decided to look at a PDP. They had a Father's Day sale going on the green frame with ameriglow optics, and after I played with it a little bit I couldn't resist. Good heavens, that trigger. I switched it over to left hand configuration, and while I'm not really 100% on the optics yet, at least I'm giving it a little bit of a try. I didn't feel the need to shorten up the slide release, the way my grip is I guess didn't hit it. I have big hands as well (I'm 6'3", 350, so I'm not a little fella). Anyway, my G19 and 26 are still my go-tos, but that may change as I get enough rounds through the Walther. I really do like it so far. But I guess part of my point is that, like you, I too am finding myself gravitating back upwards to the larger frames. God bless, and keep them coming!
@@BlueRidgeCritter It’s funny you say that bc I have had this gun for over a year now. It seems like I am always trying to find excuses “not” to carry this gun. It wasn’t till a few months ago when I finally bought a holster for it and I haven’t looked back. Such a great firearm. I did one more modification to it which I will do a video on here soon. As well as a new optic. I just wish the slide wasn’t so chunky but that is by no means a dealbreaker. It is a dream gun for us guys with big hands! I’m glad you came to my side bc not many ppl carry it and I’m not sure why bc it is fantastic. I’m actually jealous I want the gray or green frame so bad lol 😂 I can only fit a sliver of my pinky on the g19 so I needed a bigger frame. The g45 frame feels great 👍 but it’s not great for concealed carry on my body. The PDP conceals like a dream on me. But that’s why I like doing videos so ppl can see the journey to find that perfect firearm
I hope you will get the chance to compare these to the hellcat pro comp.
@@Shieldszy I know I wish companies would send me stuff for review. Getting expensive buying everything 😂 the hellcat pro comp has been on my radar I hope I can get my hands on it in the near future
I think the hellcat can be skipped tbh it’s just not that comfortable to shoot, snappy and gritty especially the trigger. Can’t see the port really helping that, but if you can rent one it’s worth seeing for yourself.
Meh. I’ll stick with Tenicor or Trex Arms. Tier 1 is overpriced and the long a$$ lead time is unacceptable bs they just use as marketing to make it seem like they’re more popular than they really are.
The Axis Elite is the only holster I use from Tier one now. I have the new APX holster coming in from them to see if its any better than the elite. I don't mind the wait time if its a good product. Appreciate the comment
Looking to get my 19x cut for a RMR, but I’m iffy on the cut being blued. Is it possible to cerakote the cut portion only? Would like something less prone to rusting while keeping the stock finish on the rest of the slide.
The optic will cover it. Some places also make a cover plate for it that you can match the color. Keep in mind it is very difficult to match the color perfectly
