P226X5 Set. Yay Me!
So this arrived Today. I haven't had time to do any shooting yet.




It will go with my X5AO


I suppose it helps if I include the 2nd photo....

Is that the L1 that was listed here?

Heavens that's a sweet pistol. Please, sit that baby up and show us its Patridge blade sight. This no doubt has a heavy wall barrel too.

yes, it is. The AO is the one from Warpig about 3 years ago.

Now I need to find a couple more mags for it....

Thank you. They are very nice. The one with wood grips needs its front blade smoked. A carbide sight smoker is a great tool for keeping them black.

Awesome score right there. Held one about 12 years ago and still kicking myself for not grabbing it.

That Allround from WARPIG, IIRC, had action job by Robert Burke, and was an excellent deal. The L1 was also a very good buy. Congratulations.

Same here, I held one about 2009 ish. I kicked my self for not picking it up at the time. It was either pick this up or wait for an LWRC SMG45. I wanted to round out the set more.

well, I had a chance to shoot it enough to make it to hot to hold.

Yeah, it is that nice. I recently picked up the berretta 92xp. I think I can shoot the beretta's follow up shots faster. It is not nearly as pleasant to shoot. The x5 is smoother, and a better sight picture than the 92xp IMHO.

Being partial to X-Series pistols, what can I say? Very nice pair you have there.

Very nice! I once had an X-6. Selling it is a decision I have regretted ever since.
