ATI FX45K, Commander size with threaded barrel. Can's are illegal here in the people's republic of Illinois, so maybe someday, I'll get to use the barrel for its intended purpose. I suppose I could thread a compensator of some sort on it.

Trigger is very sweet, fairly light with no creep whatsoever. The right side ambi-safety is a tiny bit sloppy, but engages and functions. I've hand cycled it a hundred times or more, and the cerakote on the rails is still showing no wear, but I'm not too concerned about wear, as I EXPECT it will wear and holster wear should become apparent at some point.

Slide to FRAME fit is as good, or actually a bit better than my Gold Cup. The barrel hood and muzzle do not have any slop or play when in battery.

All in all, I EXPECT it will shoot reasonably well, unless it's a jam0matic. I'll give it a couple hundred rounds with my Wilson Mags before I make any statements about reliability.

That's a very nice looking pistol there, I hope it shoots as good as it looks. Shooting is the acid test, but thus far it looks like you WAAAAY got your money's worth.

Mighty fine looking pistol Sir.
