Fusion Firearms XP 3C 9mm 3" 15rd Pistol

Fusion Firearms built the XP 3C as a compact double stack 1911 in 9mm that runs Glock 19 pattern magazines. That last part matters more than it sounds. Double stack 1911s have historically been tied to proprietary magazines that are hard to source and slow to replace, and feeding this one from the most common pistol magazine in the country removes that problem entirely. Two 15 round magazines come with it.

The frame and slide are steel, which is the whole point of a gun like this. Mass soaks up recoil, and a 3" 9mm that weighs what an all steel 1911 weighs is a soft shooter for its size. The metal wears a Tenifer QPQ treatment. The slide is cut for an optic and the trigger is milled. At 3" of barrel this is carry length with a 1911 trigger and a round count that used to require a polymer service pistol. The 1911 grip is thin front to back even on a double stack frame, so it hides better under a shirt than the capacity suggests.
