Wilson Combat EDC X9 2.0 Cali Compliant: CADRE NEWS

Cory Ross

We live in a nation that guarantees the right to keep and bear arms under the Second Amendment. Unfortunately, some states limit those freedoms, and one of the worst offenders is California.

Thankfully, many firearm manufacturers work tirelessly to produce compliant versions of their firearms to meet the needs of their customers who are behind enemy lines. The latest to do so is Wilson Combat with the EDC X9 2.0.

FEATURES

Willson Combat is adapting its double-stack defensive pistol to meet strict state compliance requirements while maintaining the X9 platform’s performance standards.

Built on a compact, aluminum-rail X-Frame, the pistol features a 4-inch cone barrel and a precision-machined Tri-Top slide, delivering 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards. To meet compliance standards, the design incorporates an ambidextrous thumb safety, a loaded-chamber indicator, and a magazine-disconnect safety that prevents the trigger from operating without a magazine.

Ergonomics remain a priority, with X-TAC texturing on the front and backstraps paired with G10 Starburst grips. A crisp 3.5- to 4.5-pound trigger provides a clean break and a tactile reset. Finished in black ARMOR-TUFF and outfitted with Bullet Proof components, the pistol maintains durability and reliability in a carry-focused package.

ZOOMING OUT

It’s good to see firearm manufacturers taking the time to release compliant versions of their production models for states that limit a person’s constitutional rights. Wilson is known as a premium manufacturer, and its prices reflect that. But if you are looking for one of the best options, look no further.
