Wow!!!! The pre vid shenaigans are over the top!!! Really great review. Gonna hang with my beretta apx centurion. The wilson is awesome ; but the apx has many of the great features ; runs flawless and affordable too ....thanks for your time on these great reviews!

Awesome gun. Wilson Combat continues to impress. Expensive yes, but worth it in my opinion. Great job as always KS!

Thanks for the review! For my money this is a home run. Even when I take out my open guns to practice I always bring one of my 2 EDC X9s in part because I love shooting it.

Great review of one very nice pistol. Thanks to Harry for allowing us this opportunity to hear your opinion.

Great review as always... Bought mine a year in half ago shot 4000 rounds thru and it’s performed flawlessly !! If you can afford it I highly recommend it

This is truly the ultimate / perfect carry gun - game over. I'm drooling.

Nice review! Great looking gun, thanks for the video!

I love these! Great video AS ALWAYS!

Great review of what sounds like a wonderful pistol, one I can never afford or one I would risk losing after a shooting. I would carry something far cheaper so that if lost wouldn’t break my heart ! Thanks for sharing your experiences with what seems like a one in a lifetime purchase far to nice for everyday carry.

I just picked up a new Experior Commander 2011 in the two tone like this one and I’d say very happy!

You scored a beautiful color combo. I have an sfx9, it’s a sweet carry gun. Great review

Man the breakdown is so smooth... my kimber and RIA like a battle to disassemble and reassemble

Awesome gun great review as always!!!

Great job family and thank you for your educate us all on gun safety. As well as gun selection. Education is the key in first line of defense thank you praise God

Wilson's are definitely worth the money, you do get what you pay for. BUT, a more normal priced option that I have and love, and is very similar in form and IMO performance, the CZ P-01 Omega (convertible). I run it with the thumb safety installed so the manual of arms is basically the same as the X9. Never one malfunction, very accurate and the ergos of the CZ 75 platform are some of the best out there.

Awesome gun. Honestly I carry my shield or g19 more often just out of connivence. But this is my favorite shooter that I carry.

Bulletproof is Wilson’s term for machined vs MIM parts. I have 3 Wilson 1911’s and an EDC-X9 on order. Crazy expensive but Wilson stands behind their products and they just shoot great. Awesome review!

Great review! I have been thinking about one of these for awhile and the price has been holding me back.

I got one! It is awesome! It is so light and very compact gun. I bought Special Custom made! It costs me a lot but it worth it.

Having owned both, here are my thoughts. Both are well built, equally accurate and very reliable. The Wilson in my opinion is of higher quality, more refined and is finished better, it’s also considerably more expensive. If I were going to concealed carry one of these guns everyday, I would choose the Wilson given the fact it is smaller, lighter and overall more compact. If I were looking for a home defense, range or duty gun I would choose the Staccato P. Either way you can’t go wrong, both are awesome guns!

I decided to purchase this gun (all black) and have put 600 rounds through it. I absolutely love this gun and don't believe that I have ever been as excited about a pistol. You can just look and feel the quality, money well spent. As I look at the one in the video and mine, mine has a shorter trigger and therefore I am betting a shorter grip, It feels perfect (and I wear large gloves).

Great review, thank you. I got a great deal on a used one and have been very happy with it. As an aside, do you know if Harry has any plans to make holsters for the x9? His site doesn’t currently list any.

I would do some truly unspeakable things to own that very gun.. If I were going to order it from Wilson and had the ability to pick the slide/frame finish, grip size/medallion color, etc., I would get mine configured EXACTLY like the one in this video.. To me, it is absolutely perfect.

Great review. I own a EDC X9 and it is my favorite and most reliable pistol. You may want to point out that it has external extractor, no grip screws to come loose, and that the barrel locks up on the hood vice 2 lugs like a 1911. 6k plus rounds zero issues with all types of ammo.

Got my all black armor tuff X9 is arriving this week. Retired so I am treating myself to a fine handgun. WC is located in my state so I am a little biased toward owning one. Own Sigs, but love the 1911 WC 9mm's. Nice review.

That stainless slide makes the gun look so good! The pistol's owner spec'd it well.

I own the edc x9L got it at brownells in grinell iowa on sale total price was $2300 it is a great shooting weapon I reall like it the only Wilson combat I own I like it almost as much as my sti edge .40 it is a whole different platform Wilson make a fine precision machine

I love my EDC X9! Like High end cars, watches and wine, we only live once!

I'm thinking now about selling the guns I have now just to buy this one.... Wait, I realized I could save for a few years and buy the next gen, but I will endeavour to aquire one of these beauties. I would absolutely carry that gun most days.Thanques KS! Beautiful, and deadly :)

Nice review. Well done!

Awesome video as always. The EDC X9 is a sexy gun.

{°too much beauty in one single gun°} The real matatan.🤔.

I have studip phones too. ;) Love that EDC X9, but it is just so expensive. Thanks again for the video.

Those are both very nice pistols, I don't know if I'll ever drop that much on one. If I end up winning the lottery you can bet I'll be getting two, one for each hand. :) I love to see high end firearms that ooze quality!!

KSGunguy......This is one cherry looking handgun. I should have put on a bib first before watching it😳😳😳. As soon as I checked out pricing, my mouth became dryer than the Texas desert. You are killing me and yet I loved the video.😅😅👍👍👍👍👍

Great video review KS! However I am setting here trying to think up a new “set of values” to be able to justify $3k... I guess I’m at peace with a Pointman 9 ...justification completed. 😁

Great reveiw as you usually do, way to exspensive in my book , barell & trigger are killer , slide stop a complete failure for the price, no serations on trigger guard to boot. Thanx. P.S.

I know honest outlaw gonna love this bad boy

This is a beautiful piece. If there’s anything that makes the Glock 19 ugly, it’s this.

Hello KS, great review. How about Wilson Combat EDC X9 vs DWX Compact?

I have always been a Stryker fire kinda guy but once I tried the EDC X9, I never looked back. You definitely get what you pay for.

Old to this one KS but, does the grip on this cause big handed guys to having to have the pinky hang off the bottom? A Glock 19 is a lil too small for me comfortably. Thank you.

a totally excellent review

Awesome video. I need one in my life. I might sell a few guns to get one. I've been thinking about it lately.

Great review, Awesome EDC.

This is basically a 1911 and Hi-Power hybrid. WC loves to compare this to the Hi-Power

Yes if I could only have one would be great!

Good video, keep the gun. Since 2016 pricing on defensive weapons have been outrageous.

Nice Review Brother, Carry On

Could you imagine actually using it in a defensive situation? Having it confiscated by the police until the matter is settled. I'd be crying every day until I had it returned.

Great gun but of course way too expensive for me. I'd love to see a "If I can only have one" vs the Staccato though. I can maybe stomach 2G's but 3G's yikes. Thanks again for a great review!

I do love a gun that just wants to run like that. I get like that with a couple pistols I have when shooting off the reset. Flat shooters with a light short trigger... 🤩🤩🤩

This is a beautiful gun, no doubt. It is also a joy to take apart a clean because the quality of the components is very high. However, I have not had the greatest shooting experience with my copy. Although the uptake for the trigger is short and there is a defined wall, which I really like, I was surprised to find that sometimes the uptake feels gritty. In addition, I find the trigger on mine to be far too heavy (more explanation on that later). Finally, over the course of about 600 rounds (one thorough cleaning at 300 rounds) I have had about 7 failures to go into battery. In summary, so far I don't feel like my copy is reliable enough for carry and for a range gun the trigger is too heavy. I don't have a gauge but my guess would be 4 to 4.5 pounds. For a range gun (which is what this gun is for me because I don't feel like I can trust it) I like a very light trigger pull of 2.5 to 3 pounds. I am going to do some trigger adjustments to get mine down in that area but if I can't I think this thing is going on Gunbroker. Thought I'd throw out an alternative experience. This is just my opinion and desired trigger pull is subjective. If I were to do it all over again, I would look really carefully at the STI Staccato as an alternative.

The Star Firestar was way ahead of its time. Compact in 9mm, 40 S&W and .45 ACP. It was the 1991 Guns & Ammo Handgun of the year. It had a lot of the features newer guns are now catching up to. Single action only, Single stack magazine very compact, no grip safety. Dual thumb safeties that can be engaged while cycling the slide, all steel construction, hard chrome finish, cone barrel and slide inside rails like a Sig 210 or CZ75. Also very reliable. Too bad Star went out of business. You can pick up one in very good condition for around $400 or less. Springfield Armory EMP and Kimber Solo, even this Wilson and Kimber Micro, seem to be more expensive legacies to the Star Firestar. If you are looking for an improved micro 1911 the Star Firestar is a good choice. Another interesting history look up Detonics line of Small 1911 style guns that preceded the Colt Officer's ACP. Very cool custom grade guns. But now they are collectors items.

The blacked out edition is my dream gun

Nice looking compact

Please do a “If you Could Only Have One” with the STI and Wilson Combat. I am in the market for my first 1911/2011 and I would love to get your opinion on the two.

Hey KS a bit off subject but I have a chance to buy a new in box CZ PCR for 500.00. In your opinion is this a gun to jump on. Thanks for your reviews and opinion.

Definitly needs more mags ! ;-) Nice gun !

I see that there are no lugs inside the bolt and on the barrel, like in 1911 and 2011! How is the locking and fixing the barrel of a gun?

What size was/are the grips/back strap on Harry's gun?

I love mine! Wouldn’t trade it for the world!

Sorry, I don’t know too much about firearms. What type of magazines does the EDC 9 take? Are they proprietary or are they a common and easy to get brand?

I just don’t dig the X style slide serrations....but totally dig you channel!

Awesome x 2 + 1 = (Wilson) (KSGunGuy) and special thanks to Harry for sharing. I covet this gun, but IMO the best carry gun is the most reliable gun that you're willing to give to the police.

Dream gun 😎

I came to the realization that 5 Sigs, 4 Glocks, a bunch of Berettas etc and a collection of 30 guns doesn’t make sense for me so I have a couple of each of my favorites and I’ve added more Wilson’s in traditional 1911 and EDC X9 variants - fewer standard and more high end but still a good mix. If you can’t justify the price and you have 6 Glocks you don’t use, sell 4 of them and get one of these!

Niiiiice! Did you order from Wilson? The styling is gorgeous.

Anyone know anything about Sig coming out with a new P365 XL ?15 rounds in the mag. Same slide.

FIRST!!! Great video as usual.

Remember, when going by S&W published weights, they do not include the magazine.

Can’t wait for the Staccato P if I could only have 1 match up!

Great vid, thanks for the review. I have the gray frame with black grips and I love this gun. The more you shoot it the more you will like it. Wilson just came out with the EDC X9L. It has the same size frame but with a 5" barrel and a large mag well. That might be a more direct comparison to the STI Staccato P. Also, Wilson will be coming out with 18 rounds mags for the X9L that will work with the original X9. You can also have the 4" version of the EDC X9 retro-fitted with the larger mag well if desired. Thanks again!

ULTRA NICE! 👍

WOOOOOO!!!!!!

I gotta have this!

can you review bul armory sas II viper?

I got this for my birthday.

The STI Stacaato C is an amazing alternative at half the price.

definitely an elite type of handgun

6:43 did you say "tiny ninja"? I'm very curious as to what that means.

Love mine

I love the look and size, I just havent won the lottery yet....so Ill have to pass. I shutter looking at 1911's over the $900 mark but man I would love to own a STI Staccato P or this Wilson

I guess it's a gun I'd buy if I were Scrooge McDuck.

I prefer steel/alloy pistols In before “muh weight savings”

So glad this gun got the KS review. :)

Doesn't look too bad... too much for me though. Great video.

I like it.

I love mine!

That looks like a beautiful pistol. Wow. I just did a video on the Staccato P and I would love to see you do a head-to-head between these two! Thank you and cheers!

That imo is a collector's gun. No way on earth would I edc it. Like an earlier comment, you don't want that going to an leo station to possibly never come back. Barbecue gun yes. Edc nope! Always the best reviews om youtube!

Great!

Way to go KS u outlined one of my favorite guns. Price keeps this out of my hands also the fact I carry appendix and I would not be comfortable with the hammer back without a grip safety :(. I did not see in your review if it had a short cocked hammer safety Great review

That is my dream pistol, but I can’t have it in California 😢!

I love the look and feel of this gun , but can't justify the price tag and I think there's better actual EDC guns , especially in my state where I'm limited to 10 rounds . You should talk 1776 into getting g one , maybe if he sells all his guns , the he can buy one :):)

Yep got a chance to hold one not shoot it! I'm in love ❤️ my credit card would reject payment! My heart is broke!

My dream gun. It is absolutely beautiful

If you do plan to get one, and if you're in the military or a vet, then call them and ask about their military discount. 10% amounts to a few hundred dollars on a piece like this.

Dream gun.

may be the "bulletproof" parts were made from titanium?
