Shadow Systems CR920X XP Elite 9mm Micro Pistol, 3.65 in Match Barrel, Optics-Cut Slide, 15+1
This CR920X XP Elite stands out as a micro-size 9mm with a 3.65 in match-grade steel barrel finished in bronze TiCN, an optics-cut slide, and a 15+1 capacity. It features a black nitride slide, a textured polymer frame, and a flat-faced trigger, all configured for precise, controlled shooting in a compact footprint.
The slide is marked CR920XP and includes front, rear, and top serrations plus window cuts. Dovetail iron sights pair a green-dot front post with a black serrated rear. Dimensions are dialed for carry-friendly handling at 7.18 in overall length, 5.18 in height, 1.09 in width, and 21.2 oz unloaded. Two 15-round steel magazines are included, and the serial on the frame matches the box end label.

The XP Elite configuration brings a feature-rich slide to a micro footprint. Black nitride treatment combines with front, rear, and top serrations and window cuts for confident manipulation and reduced weight. The slide is optics cut; the cover plate is not present as noted in the condition.
The 3.65 in match-grade steel barrel wears a bronze TiCN finish for durability and smooth cycling. Paired with a flat-faced trigger and a striker-fired action with an integrated trigger safety, the setup delivers a consistent press and clean break.
The textured polymer frame includes a high undercut trigger guard, textured index pads, and a flared magazine well opening to support fast, repeatable control. A left-side magazine release is standard.
Sight picture is straightforward and fast: a green-dot front post and a black serrated rear, both in dovetail cuts. Combined with the compact dimensions and 21.2 oz unloaded weight, the CR920X XP Elite remains easy to carry and quick to align.
Capacity is 15+1 in 9mm Luger, and this pistol ships with two steel magazines. The serial on the frame matches the box end label, and the factory MPN is SS-5211. Made in the USA.
