At Fusion Firearms, our mission doesn’t stop at building high-quality pistols—we also want to ensure that every shooter has the right gear to carry them safely and comfortably. That’s why we’ve partnered with UM Tactical, a Florida-based holster manufacturer known for innovative designs, premium materials, and a lifetime warranty. Together, we’re creating holsters specifically tailored for Fusion’s XP and XF series pistols.

One of the biggest advantages of the 1911 and 2011 platforms is their modularity—shooters love the ability to upgrade, tune, and maintain their pistols. At Fusion Firearms, we’ve designed the Toolless Guide Rod to make one of the most common maintenance tasks—field stripping—faster and easier than ever. Whether you’re running a traditional 1911, a modern 2011, or our Fusion XP Pro wide-body pistol, this upgrade eliminates the need for takedown tools and streamlines your cleaning process.

When it comes to reliability in your 1911, 2011, or Fusion’s XP Pro wide-body pistols, extractor tension plays a critical role. If your pistol isn’t feeding or ejecting consistently, there’s a good chance your extractor needs a little tuning. In this post, Bob Serva of Fusion Firearms walks through the basics of why extractor tension matters, how to safely adjust it, and some key troubleshooting tips.
