New from Shadow Systems--the MR920

[USBP379]

This is just announced and is based on feedback from owners of the MR918.

The 920 is more or less a 2.0 version of the 918. Still based on the G19, it has been tweaked to address a few key points.

The beavertail is slightly elongated with a slightly different profile. Apparently a few people were still getting slide bite. Also, the slide release has been reshaped to prevent the same people from bumping it with the palm of the support hand.

There are additional changes to the overall style of the pistol. The frame now has a more defined ridge for indexing the trigger finger and/or to rest the support thumb against while shooting. The front slide profile is reduced to aid in reholstering and the sights are slightly taller to better cowitness when using a red dot.

The biggest change is the redesign of the extractor plunger. It is shorter and no longer comes out the back. This means longer screws can be used to secure a red dot. It also allows for several sets of holes to be drilled to accommodate the RMR, Deltapoint and a few other sights without using an adapter plate.

I've been quite pleased with my MR918 and plan on getting a 920 as soon as they ship.

I've been interested in the 918 for some time now. I think it's a good looking gun but there seems to be little info about them..
I've heard some of the parts are interchangeable with Glock and I'm wondering which parts, if you know? I have 3 Glocks
now and I like them especially the 19 and 26 and was looking to purchase the 918/920 but was looking for more info on
it before I slap down the money, I hate to buy guns that have issues and if the 918 has a high Glock content that's good and
makes me a bit more comfortable buying it cuz Glocks just work yet not the best looking guns out there..Anyway the 918 and
now the 920 on my list...
