    With ~600 rounds through the X9, it’s time for the first cleaning. I should mention I haven’t experienced a single malfunction with any factory ammo.

    Field stripping is similar to a standard 1911, but much easier, although the hand fitted takedown pin is a bear to remove. This is what it looks like naked.

    If you look close enough, you see the differences with a standard 1911 frame. Most notably is the lack of grip safety and the MSH is an interchangeable blackstrap to help tailor the fit to your hand. No grip screws, either.
