The Shadow Systems MR920 Elite delivers enhanced accuracy and reliability for California shooters seeking a premium striker-fired pistol. This CA-compliant variant maintains the performance standards of the full-size MR920 while meeting state regulations through a 10+1 capacity configuration.
What Makes This Different
The MR920 Elite features a match-grade barrel and enhanced trigger system that produces tighter shot groups compared to standard polymer-framed pistols. The optic-cut slide accepts popular red dot sights without requiring additional machining, while aggressive slide serrations provide positive manipulation even with wet hands. Window cuts in the slide reduce reciprocating mass for faster follow-up shots.
Key Features
- Black nitride-coated stainless steel slide with optic cut for direct red dot mounting
- Enhanced trigger system with crisp break and short reset
- Interchangeable backstrap system for customized grip fit
- Aggressive slide serrations front and rear for reliable manipulation
- Match-grade barrel with target crown for improved accuracy
- Ambidextrous slide stop lever accommodates left-handed shooters
- MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail for lights and lasers
Field testing demonstrates consistent accuracy within 2.5 inches at 25 yards with quality ammunition. The pistol functions reliably with various bullet weights from 115 to 147 grains, making it suitable for competition shooting, duty carry, and home defense applications. The black nitride finish resists corrosion in humid conditions while maintaining a low-glare profile.
