    The live free armory compact 2011 came in IMG_20251222_115349652_HDR.jpg
    It was at my dealer 2 weeks ago but the seller didn't include any paperwork
    Just the address on the outside of the box.
    Never saw this happen before
    After many emails and chats they don't have
    Phone customer service they finally called and I got them to send the info.
    Really nicely made pistol butter smooth slide to frame and barrel very tightly fitted to the slide feels handfit
    And has very crisp operating thumb safety's
    trigger pull is a nice 3.5lb pull.
    Unexpectedly I cannot disengage the grip safety easily at all.
    It's made for smaller hands I guess
    My hand can't match the diameter I'm thinking and other's have said the same.
    So I called Springfield armory and ordered a prodigy grip module and mainspring assemblys
    59.00 shipped for everything.
    I really like the prodigy grip it fits me perfectly.
    I know I can pin the grip safety but I'm used to them functioning.

    Really liking the Ruger rxm but the grip module is on the verge of being too small for me
    Being a fcu pistol.
    I saw Magpul released the g17 sized grip module recently
    So I ordered one
    26.00 and 4 mec-gar 20rnd Glock 17 mags mag1517-blk_magpul_ehg_rg9_full_size_grip_ruger_rxm_05_1.jpg
    Internet pic
    Everything was just a little over 100.00 I was surprised.

    The arex delta m continues to be my favorite pistol overall and my home defense opplanet-arex-delta-grip-module-kit-large-olive-drab-602553-main.png
    It has a interchangeable fcu like the rxm
    And I wanted to try the L for large frame 19rnd grip module
    I also have 4 19rnd mags on order.
    If anyone wants to try an arex they are 250ish on buds gunshop
    https://gun.deals/search/apachesolr_search/arex delta m
    And a low as 217.00 before fees on gundeals
    For what I've tried I think it's the best deal going right now for the price.
    A little more money the tisas px9 then in the 300.00 range the cz p10c p10f and p10s are my picks.
