My go to pistol these days

Bought one last week, around 200 rounds thru so far. Flawless and I got used to the trigger quickly. It’s in my lock box ready to go. Thanks for the video!

The MR920 looks sleek and well-designed, and it's great to see it in action. Hickok’s insights on iys features and ergonomics are valuable for those considering a new firearm. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing your expertise with us!

I have had this gun for just over a year and have put over 5k rounds and I can tell you the trigger gets only marginally better. But like so many things if you shoot something enough you get good with it and I am shooting .19 splits. The reset helps with that a lot. Have not had one issue the whole time and customer service is second to none. I have only called for advice and general questions and they are always happy to help. Flawless performance

I am a huge Glock guy and a Glock 19 was the first pistol i ever owned. I love how easy it is to disassemble and customize. First thing i do when i get any glock is replace the sighs and trigger. I like yellow front night sights and a blacked out u notch rear. I also like overwatch falx trigger. When i saw the MR920 Elite i had to see it. Soon as i picked it up i was hooked and had to have one. It comes with a great set of night sights, good trigger, very cool slide work, fluted barrel, and their optics models are totally different. Most optics models you have to use a plate but Shadow System is different. They use these spacers , so you don t have to use plates ( that make your dot sit highter and make u use higher co witness sights ). It shoots flatter than a glock 19 and is just so much more comfortable to shoot. There is a break in period so you might have a malfunction or 2 during the first 100 rds ( i never had any issues with mine though ). Again, I am a Glock fan boy and love glocks ,but this MR920 Elite took my Glock 19 s place. Now i rotate the Shadow Systems MR920 Elite and my Glock 43x mos. If your looking at a MR920 I would recommend getting the one without the threaded barrel ( unless you intend to shoot supressed ) bcause it just easier to conceal carry. There are several different models and I would recommend the MR920 Elite. It is the same size as a Glock 19 and if you figure all the extras you get stock it isn t a bad deal. You add up a good trigger, some slide work, night sights you ll put on a Glock 19 and your closer in price than you think. Dang this is longer than i thought but if you like Glock 19 s , do yourself a favor and go to you Local Gun Shop and hold one ( you ll see what i mean about how awesome it feels ).

They are a great company and some FINE pistols. I have their MR920L model for 3 months. Love it. Those men&women over at shadow systems are doing the platform. 👌. 💪 Texas Strong 💪

I have owned an XR920 Combat(Glock 45 clone) for 8 months. Yes, the trigger isn't great. Yes, they cost about $200 more than a Glock. This is why it was worth it to me. The straight grip insert for the grip on the XR makes a significant difference in removing the hump, the grip profile is similar to a Sig 320. It has iron night sights, I have replaced the plastic sights on every Glock I own immediately after I buy them. The factory sights are 1/3 co-witness and work perfectly with the Holosun 507c that I put on it. The gun comes milled for a red dot. The grip stippling is excellent. I put Talon grips on every Glock I have ever purchased and it wasn't necessary with this gun. The XR has an extended beaver tail without adding the thickness of a grip add on. The front slide serrations are excellent. The frame is flared and stippled where the thumb on your support hand rests. It comes with a mag well from the factory. It's 2.5 ounces lighter than a Glock, which isn't great for a competition gun but is noticeable when you carry. The trigger well is larger and doesn't pinch my finger like every Glock I've ever owned. The trigger guard is undercut from the factory. I've been shooting this gun in IDPA matches for 7 months and have had no reliability issues. In summary, by the time you add co-witness iron night sights, grip stippling and an undercut trigger guard on an optics ready gun you will spend the extra $200 on a Glock MOS. Throw in the magwell and the fact that the straight grip insert can give you a grip angle that you can't get with a Glock and it's worth the cost to me. Shadow Systems has made a Glock with all of the upgrades and changes that many competitive shooters and concealed carriers make to their Glocks.

I've had my MR920 for a year now and haven't had a single problem with it. Thanks for doing this video Hickok! Your insights are invaluable and your shooting is beyond compare!

This is the first firearm I bought in 2021!! So cool to see a video of it I really like it. After that I picked up a Remington 870 tactical to add to the collection.

I EDC my Shadow Systems MR920 Elite with a Holosun EPS MRS a TLR7A and a Johnny Glock flat trigger and absolutely LOVE it. 2K rds and flawless even through the breakin period. Great video! Made up the street in Plano Tx USA 🇺🇸

I really like shadow systems. Got a MR920 in the fall. Liked it so much i got a CR920 a month ago for summer carry.

I got so lucky with mine. The trigger feels phenomenal in my mr920. Crisp smooth short pull to the wall, and a very clean break. Havent even broke it in yet. Thanks for yet another amazing video!

I literally just bought this gun today as a birthday gift to myself before I saw this video and now I'm seeing you shoot it before I get to take it out. This video makes me excited.

I have the MR920 and have put 3000 plus rounds through it. During the break in period I did have some failure to feed malfunctions, but since then it has not hickuped at all. Recently added the Shadow Systems compensator and it has helped my follow up shots, didn't even need to change the spring. I ran it through multiple different ammo and I trust it as my EDC.

I had to tap in the first round in four of my first five mags during break in of my Foundation Series. Flawless and accurate ever since. Love it!

My first semi auto is a combat mr920. No optic, threaded barrel, or slide cuts. 2k rounds stock then installed a Timney competition trigger and the radian ramjet & afterburner, another 2k rounds later 0 malfunctions.

"That's one negative: it has to have a round in the chamber in order for it to fire." Classic

Ive had that exact model almost a yr now and ive ran several different brands of ammo thru it from federal all the way to r.i.p rounds and those liberty ultra lights....not a single issue and the gun stock shoots like a dream....the trigger really doesnt bother me because the reset is super nice.i got mine for $600 used.solid buy even tho my edc is a custom bersa thunder 380

Still carrying my Gen 3 19. All stock except for the sights. Love the finger groves! No slide cuts or stippling. I guess I’m just weird, but I haven’t had a need to get all that stuff on it.

The real benefit of the mr 920. is not just that it's a fancy Glock clone but instead that shadow systems redesigned the slide internals and extractor so that trijicon and halosun optics can direct mount with full length screws and no adapter plates making the connection much stronger and also allowing the optics set lower.

I bought one last year. I love it. Very accurate with optic mounted. Became a favorite

I have had my MR920 elite for about a year. 1000+ rds no malfunctions. Has been a great shooter. I am doing bullseyes at 25 yds which i do with no other gun in my collection. Mine is equipped with a holosun 507c optic and the SS has a unique and great no plate mounting system. My trigger is not what he describes, maybe that is the elite model? Super lightweight. One of my favorites for sure. Honest review as always.

This has been my everyday carry for about a year. Great firearm.

Perfect timing! I've been looking into the MR920, and you always have the best information 👌😌❤

I absolutely love my MR920 elite. One of my finest firearms

I have the same pistol. The trigger connector can be replaced. That along with a good Dremel tool polish I got mine down to about 4 lbs. Love mine and the direct Optic attachment is better than MOS by spades!

The best thing I did to improve my trigger on my model 45 gen.5 was install the Glock $25 double diamond connector link slightly less take up, DEFINED CRISP CLEAN BRAKE, and slightly quicker reset . Very smooth all the way through, it's a 3.5 lb. Connector but used with all stock springs makes it a 4.5 lb.trigger (best $25 mod I've done). Lenny show's the install on video very eazy to do . About the Shadow Systems , don't care for the look myself all cut up edges everywhere.

I have a mr920 elite, trigger actually feels better than my gen 3 19. It's my edc, I shoot it very often and I do very much enjoy it. I could be wrong, but I believe the older models if the mr920 had a horrible trigger and within the last year or so, they improved the trigger.

Just bought one the other day. My Wilson combat 45 commander was getting heavy and bulky to cc as I get older and heavier. Planning on getting it broken in next week. Got the war poet version. Very crisp pull and reset. Upgraded from this one.

Nice timing on the video. I was looking for reviews on the Shadow systems just last week

I love these weapon, I’m glad I got my hands on one last year. Pretty awesome gun

We just three of these at the store I work at in Kentucky. I never heard of them, so I gave them a good look over. Seem like pretty good pieces.

I’ve had my MR920 for a few years and absolutely love it. I did change the trigger to a Johnny glocks trigger which is amazing.

With factory sights Ive seen this man man shot almost every gun with perfection I got to be consistent at the range.

The triggers on my CR Nd DR 920elite pistols S have EXCELLENT TRIGGERS. After your 200 break in, The triggers improve drastically. I had a Timney in my DR, and took it out and reinstalled vibe original !

Just bought an MR920 combat and put 115 rounds thru it today. Trigger is better than any Glock I've had, shoots soft, great ergos

The grandfather I wish I had. Love your videos.

I have a mr920 and got a meta tactical bullpup conversion kit for it and i love it. Would like to see either a revisit of the mr920 converted or the 10mm version for the glock 20.

Thanks for this one! I’ve been in the market to upgrade my edc from a subcompact and have finally decided on this one. I’ve seen vidyas of this baby shooting like a laser with a compensator on it. I can’t wait to get it and start the tinkerin’ process of dialing in the comfort and accuracy.

i have the foundation series M920 and the first thing i changed was the front sight to the tridium one and the break in period is very important for the shadow guns

I just bought a MR920 Elite the trigger is very good for a carry gun. Very little stacking and crisp break with a 4LB pull.

Still carrying my Gen2 19

Just in time, was looking for a nice overview of this

As someone who has a couple Shadow systems the triggers get better after about 500 rounds. My mr920 beats any Glock trigger I've ever shot and I have two Glocks. And have had the opportunity to shoot many students Glocks. Maybe I just got a deal on my mr920 but by the time I would have had the site changed and a few other mods I wanted it would have been way over the price of a Glock. Again don't get me wrong I love Glocks their sewing machines they just run and run. I just think the Shadow Systems is American made and it's what a Glock should be practically from the box

I have two mr920 one a combat. The other combat elite with a threaded barrel. Ive got well over a thousand rounds on both of mine and both triggers are better than my gen 5 G19. Ive never had an issue with either. I also have a zev Oz9 hypercomp now thats the glock of gucci glocks. And its great.

My trigger is phenomenal. I have the War Poet edition and it breaks at 4.5 pounds. I’ve been carrying this for the last seven months and I won’t carry any other brand ever again!!!! Cr920 is on the way!

Really enjoy watching your video's. I have a DR920P elite and an MR920 elite. Haven't had a single failure with either one. The trigger, A person can get use to it to know where it brakes but they are still like a piece of crap. My Daisey bb gun has as good or better trigger than either one of the shadows. Hopefully they will come out with an upgrade. More money. Keep your head down and your powder dry.

Mine took awhile to break in but it’s all goon now. Love it!

I'm on my third Shadow Systems handgun. They are great, well made weapons. Eat everything I feed them. I trust my life to my first MR every day.

Got the XR920 because it was on display, but wished a I waited for this one to come back in stock. I'm not a big guy, and the large frame doesn't help too much. Just the same, I rarely carry, and when I do I like my 380. Love the gun though!

The video I've been waiting for!

Brother picked one up for $625 at a show yesterday, not my cup of tea, I’m not a polymer gun type of guy but it felt good in my hands. Gonna put it to the test this upcoming weekend. Had my eyes on a colt 80 series but they didn’t have it in 38 super which is what I wanna gift to my dad.

Love my MR920L with Tlr 7a and Holosun 507c Acss Vulcan 😋🤘🏼 Great little gun! Looking at getting the thread on comp as well! Already shoots so flat! Why not flatter lol

Just got one, actually really like it.

Not really a stikerfire kinda guy but I'm always oogling at the Shadow Systems guns at my LGS, going to have to pick one up one day.

I like the adjustable backstraps to adjust the grip angle.

My edc is a XR920 elite. I love it!

I have the MR920 Elite and the DR920 Combat and I love both of them.

Have the 920P excellent performer. One of my favorites

Nice gun there thanks for sharing Hickok45

Have a 920L and has been flawless from start

Nothing would make me happier than shooting my shadow system MR 920 with this guy on an overcast day.

Great video, we'll be staying with GLOCK. These companies have a lot of selling hype. It's nice for those that are interested in such Thanks again for sharing your video. 👌🙏👌

WE LOVE YOU HICKOk!!!

Congratulations on growing a pumpkin that big already!

Been waiting on this!!

I have an XR920 and the trigger is just fine. Not the best, nonetheless, not as bad as you describe. I love shooting it.

love you Hickok

love mine too. Got the WarPoet one with the optics. Runs great, surprising accuracy, changeable grip angle..all good! (and not tooo 'gucci'!)

I love the 1911 style grip, how the Polymer frame is alot stronger than the Glock frame, how the slide rails are stronger and a bit longer. And how the triger housing has a higher undercut for better grip. Thats a Glock in a Suit. I prefer the P80 PFC9 though, my tigger is almost perfection.

I as well own a MR920 elite. FDE. Definitely feels lighter. Have had no problems with it except for 1 of the PMags it came with. Wish it came with a hard case and not the nylon case. I think it looks alot better than the boring square look of the Glock too. I would like it to have a longer grip like the Glock 19x. Great gun.

I have the xr920, I’ve had for over a year, it is a beautiful firearm! Shoots very well! My edc is a smith and Wesson 5.7x28! The tridium sight is nicer though!

ive got 2 MR920s and a CR920. All of them shoot great

Nice work 45👍

I have a Dr920 combat and it's a great gun it runs well and is accurate.I also have a PSA dagger same deal.I've owned 2 G17s neither were for me.The most recent one ran like garbage so I sold it.The other I traded for a Beretta 92A1.

You make my day-to-day.

I put about 300 rounds through my elite. Had 2 issues failure to eject and failure to rack slide back. But after that it ran perfect. The trigger does take some getting use to i dont like it personally but its a really nice gun i want to put another 300 rounds and make sure it runs good. Might make it my everyday carry. Good vid appreciated your opinion.

I’ve literally been waiting on your review before purchasing this lol

The trigger is a deal killer.

This man has arms of steel. The lack of visible muzzle flip when he shoots is wild.

I've had the elite for about two years now got a good price on a used one at cabelas. Hasn't had a single issue the trigger on the elite is great compared to my stock gen 4 G19

I had a few jams early on with mine, but after a good break in period, it has been great. Well made, and the additional backstraps make it even better. Only thing I wish they would have done is make sure it is zeroed. Mine shot way left out of the box.

Thx for the vid sir ! For a few dollars more it sure is pretty cool

Hickok would be a great Grandpa to me in a perfect world.

They’re very solid guns!! Little QC issue here and there but they’re fantastic, and their customer service is great. Toss a timney in that bad boy, the trigger is trash!

Looks like a mucked up glock lol i love the super clean, simple look and feel of the glocks.

I have the elite version without the threaded barrel. It’s pretty dope.

best youtuber ever! your the goat!

I am interested in shadow Systems, I hope good things come for this cool company.

hickok keeping the pumpkin industry in business year round

Yes this is the one I carry and if God forbid you ever have to use it in self defense they will replace your shadow system after the cops take your protection away. The upper models have better triggers but I put apex in all of mine.

I obtained the MR920 a couple years ago. Never 1 problem so far after a couple thousand rounds. Carry it almost every day and the Glocks stay in the safe.

I have the 17 version and it had a rough break in period and after I would get occasional failures to go into battery during mag changes. I sent it back and they put in a new barrel but still had the issue. Popped in a Glock gen 4 recoil spring and been 100% reliable since then. It’s a nice shooting gun and I like the aggressive texture they do but you are right about the trigger. Mine is very heavy and should be better given the gucci Glock price!

That’s the problem with the Glock trigger system , they vary so much from gun to gun. I’ve passed on plenty of great deals on Glock and SS because the trigger was so bad. Luckily I have run into great triggers on both, those are the ones I buy.

You can use gen 3 triggers. I put a Timney Alpha Competition series in my DR920 cause I too hated the factory trigger. The Timney is awesome though.

This is going to be my next purchase.

These triggers will lighten up with use
