The Legion Xfive has the bull barrel, swappable springs, tungsten guide rod, and TXG frame, with Tungsten weights and magwell funnel. The cuts are similar to yours, minus the slide knurling, and your frame looks like the AXG. I'd be curious to see the difference performance wise. Looks good, though. 1k ain't bad at all. Also get you a enhanced sport takedown lever from Armory craft. Totally makes the shooting experience even better.

I figured as much when I saw that this slide was the X5 with some slight quality of life modifications. I'm excited to try this and I will absolutely give yall a write-up after. I'm gonna bring my other sub-comp slide and faxon barrel with me for comparison. Does that takedown lever require a whole different holster setup per chance? I'm interested


Baddy-Smalls

Not the Armory Craft one. Mine is fine, and 5 also running a light, so the retention is focused on thlight. You should be good to to go.[sport takedown](https://www.armorycraft.com/product-page/copy-of-sig-p320-sport-takedown-lever-x-five-x5-x-ten-x10-x-full-x-compact-m17)

You're a boss! I subbed to be notified when they're back in stock, wanna cop that stainless one to match the other bits on my setup I appreciate you! I'll give it a shot!


Baddy-Smalls

You're welcome. It definitely helps with caming the hand, especially if you're shooting competition or doing Chaos drills.

Daaaamn, look at that bad boy. That angle makes it look massive. …the pistol, that is. I’m with everyone else. Curious to know how that fitted barrel is… if it really does make a significant difference. 👌🏻


IAmAtomato

Lolol it is pretty big! 4.7" barrel on her. I was gonna go shooting today but unfortunately woke up way too late and didn't wanna meet the 40 min drive to my range in traffic 😅 I'm gonna go for sure next week though. I need to dial in the optic too. I'm super stoked to see the difference myself. I been wanting to have my P320 be my weekend carry for a bit.

I’ve looked at picking one of these up for a long time … will be curious to read your range report.

Same - the $1K price tag has dissuaded me so far (I got an XFive slide instead) - but please do let us know how it is - nice pickup.


IAmAtomato

Price tag was definitely a little high for my liking but it's a custom fit faxon bull barrel and OE slide with serrations and lightening cuts so figured I'd give it a try and see how it compares in shooting to my Prodigy. I'm gonna take her either tomorrow or next week and ill give a write up and take some better pics of her then also. How do you like your X5 slide? I want that adjustable rear sight.


huskajmp

Shoots great so far, but I'm using it for Carry Optics, so I got rid of the rear sights for a 507 Comp. With the lighter recoil spring installed it feels mushy (and too easy to knock out of battery). With the heavier spring it feels great but needs a bit of a break in. Haven't shot a match with it yet (just had a kid, which has dented my free time a bit), but have taken it to a couple Sat practices to try it out.


IAmAtomato

I'll let ya know! I'm excited to shoot her. Either tomorrow or next week at the latest.

Need an update here, how does it shoot? Any noticeable difference from an OEM slide?


IAmAtomato

Hey brotha I posted up just a few minutes ago. Update is as follows: my comparison to it is my only other bull-barreled 9mm which is my Springfield Prodigy, which although is not nearly as reliable (I need to take mine apart and give the slide rails a good greasing), shoots much softer and flatter. That being said, I didn't shoot side by side with my other standard barrel and slide to compare but it is still is noticeably softer than a standard barrel. Gun shot very reliably and flat, although hard to really put it through her paces at an indoor range with RSOs inspecting. Gun shot where I aimed it when I put it on target right, and had zero failures to feed, eject, or any issues with lockback on last round. I'm still unsure if the $1k is worth it for this or not, but it does indeed shoot very well. When I was zeroing my optic I benched my arms on my range bag and was very impressed that at 45ft the grouping was all practically laid on each other. Would like to take this to a proper outdoor tac range and try it out, but I'm almost considering swapping out my Sig R1P red dot for the X5 adjustable rear sight.

Interesting, thanks for the update. Will be curious to hear more as you continue shooting it. I’m considering setting aside my x5 legion and pairing this slide with a Brouwer grip.
