(A Glock 19 5th Gen (top), and a Shadow Systems MR920 (bottom). The Having now owned a Shadow Systems MR 920 for over three thousand rounds, I feel like I can finally have an opinion on it. I picked up the MR 920 on Gunbroker out of curiosity. I’d been seeing them at my local sporting goods store, and for a long time I considered them to be Glock clones made to look a little fancier to justify a price hike. I saw a decent deal on one, and decided it was time to buy. I want

On week one of owning a Staccato, I’ve gotten to find out how their warranty process works.
