Shadow Systems
Shadow Systems is a relatively young designer and manufacturer of firearms and gun parts, operating since 2016. The company is committed to building the world’s most uncompromising everyday-use guns through continuous improvement, fearless creativity, and multidisciplinary expertise of combat veterans, former LE officers, and competitive shooters. Shadow Systems are majoring in pistols and, with its manufacturing facilities in Texas, prides itself on being America-made.
The company’s handguns are often referred to as Glock clones. But we’d rather say Shadow Systems Glock-style pistols are perfected versions of their originals. Let’s take the Shadow Systems MR920, for example. It’s marketed as one of the most controllable 9mm pistols. Superior shootability is achieved through an extended beavertail, trigger guard undercut, aggressive all-weather grip texture, and textured recoil control ledge for the shooter’s support-hand thumb to engage. Have a look at the MR920 Combat if you want a basic configuration, and if you’d appreciate optimized slide performance, consider the Shadow Systems MR920 Elite.
Looking for an ultra-concealable subcompact for everyday carry? Take a look at the Shadow Systems CR920, designed to shoot like a full-size pistol. An aggressively textured frame and an extended magazine baseplate feature make a gun exceptionally grippy which helps with control. Magazine capacity options include 10 and 13 rounds.
If you’re after bigger handguns, you need the Shadow Systems DR920. And if you’re looking for something special, the Shadow Systems XR920, featuring the slide of a compact pistol and the capacity of a full-sized 9mm pistol, may suit you.
The War Poet lineup features slides with aggressively angled serrations in front, rear, and topside, weight-balancing window cuts, and multi-footprint optic cuts for you to be able to choose from a wide variety of red dot sights.
