X-Line is a popular pistol established top position in many sporting disciplines
and stainless steel framed handguns are state of the art on the market. There is only one question can we use it in combat? The answer is of course yes and all depends on your mission and your needs. Lets compare it to Navy Seals version of p226 the model MK25.
X-Five has the same trigger construction with decocker, it is 25% heavier construction, longer barrel 5?, the most important it is extremely shiny and the price of this beauty is double of MK25. If all these above mentioned superlatives are no problem, you can use it for any missions you prefer.
Initially, the X-Five revamps of the P?226. And to rework the successful semiautomatic pistol series, SIG?SAUER drafted in a large number of internationally experienced marksmen to work alongside its own tunning branch Mastershop.
Faced with intense competition, the idea was to create a modular version at the best possible price. The reason behind the modular principle was to allow shooters moving between a variety of sporting disciplines to tailor their pistol to the specific requirements of their sport.
All of the X-Series models have a Picatinny-rail on the dust cover. Located at the rear two of a four-slot rail, in line with MilStd 1913, there is also a rounded recess for the in-house X-Mount, used to attach a variety of optical sights or the variable extra weight called X-Weight, which shifts the pistol's center of mass and gravity pistol forward.
All of the X-Series pistols display first-class workmanship quality. The surface finish on the black and the stainless steel versions are flawless. The grip plates immediately adjacent operating elements fit perfectly. This applies equally to the magazine jet funnel as well.
The X-Five Allround surely provides for the greatest diversity of use. The operating elements of the stainless steel pistol are arranged along the left side: Breakdown lever, slide catch and magazine catch. Instead of a safety lever, the Allround has a lever to decock the hammer safely. All of the operating elements are readily accessible.
This serves to qualify the final result, in which the X-Five delivered a sub MOA top group. Allround pistol performed flawlessly. Neither feeding nor ejection jams occurred during the entire test of 300 rounds from different producers.
SIG?SAUER's new X-Series represents a well-designed pistol series with the customary good finishing and quality. Nevertheless, the dedicated accessories and conversion kits available for the new series mean that its modular design is suitable for modification or upgrade for use across a variety of disciplines. And when it comes to reliability and precision, you can't go wrong purchasing a model from the X-series.
