At Fusion Firearms, our mission is to craft firearms that deliver innovation, reliability, and exceptional performance. When Griffin from GB Guns, known for his in-depth and unbiased reviews, shared his thoughts on the XP Pro, we were thrilled to learn how it performed in his hands-on testing. Here’s a closer look at his review.
First Shots: Built for Comfort and Control
Griffin’s initial impression of the XP Pro was its impressive all-metal construction and its unique compatibility with Glock-pattern magazines. Testing it in cold, rainy conditions, he appreciated the XP Pro’s ability to perform reliably in less-than-ideal weather.
Using Magtech 115-grain ammo at 25 yards, Griffin highlighted the pistol’s excellent weight and balance, which effectively mitigated recoil. He was especially impressed by how comfortable and smooth the shooting experience was right out of the box.
Glock Mag Compatibility: A Practical Advantage
One of the XP Pro’s standout features is its compatibility with Glock-pattern magazines, offering shooters a wide range of options. Griffin put this feature to the test with magazines from various brands, including Bull Armory, AC Unity, and standard Glock magazines. While aftermarket magazine fitment varied, the included KCI magazines performed flawlessly.
Fusion Firearms’ Commitment to Compatibility: To further enhance magazine compatibility, we’ve added clearance in the XP Pro’s frame, ensuring a better fit for a wider range of Glock-pattern magazines. Most importantly, OEM Glock magazines will work and drop freely on all XP Pro pistols, providing unparalleled convenience and reliability.
Griffin highlighted how this feature makes the XP Pro a practical choice for competitive shooters and enthusiasts, giving them access to affordable and widely available magazines without sacrificing performance.
Performance Testing: Tackling the “What’s For Dinner” Challenge
As part of his comprehensive evaluation, Griffin subjected the XP Pro to his signature “What’s For Dinner” test, running ammunition ranging from 70-grain to 165-grain. The XP Pro handled varying weights, bullet profiles, and velocities with remarkable consistency. He noted smooth cycling and reliable lock-back on empty, even with unconventional loads like Federal Syntech PCC and heavy 165-grain rounds.
When testing practical accuracy, Griffin delivered five-shot groupings at seven yards, achieving tight and consistent results. He praised the XP Pro’s smooth trigger, silky slide operation, and manageable recoil, which contributed to its excellent accuracy and shooting comfort.
Shooting Impressions: A Joy to Handle
Throughout the review, Griffin emphasized the XP Pro’s thoughtful design and user-friendly features. From its ergonomic grip to the responsive trigger and well-placed controls, the pistol stood out as a comfortable and efficient firearm. The all-metal construction not only adds durability but also provides stability, making it ideal for extended shooting sessions.
Final Thoughts: A New Standard in Double-Stack 1911s
Griffin concluded his review with high praise for the XP Pro, calling it an exciting addition to the double-stack 1911 market. He highlighted its innovative design, high-quality fit and finish, and reliable performance. While magazine fitment may vary with some aftermarket options, the XP Pro’s compatibility with OEM Glock magazines and enhanced frame clearance make it a standout choice.
Griffin’s verdict? The XP Pro delivers a unique blend of classic 1911 design and modern innovation, making it a reliable and versatile option for a wide range of shooters.
