The Shadow Systems CR920XL Elite 9mm is the long-slide version of the slim CR platform, with a 4.1-inch barrel and 15+1 capacity (Shadow Systems part no. SS-5027). The longer slide adds sight radius while keeping the thin carry profile, and this model has a bronze match-grade barrel. Shadow Systems fitted it with Elite slide machining, tritium sights and an optic cut. It is a good match for carry shooters who want more shootability than a standard subcompact allows.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is 9mm, a common carry and range cartridge.
• Magazine capacity is 15+1, fed by a flush-fit 15-round steel magazine.
• The barrel is 4.1 inches, a longer length that adds sight radius to the slim frame.
• The barrel is match-grade with a bronze finish, an accuracy-oriented part with a distinct look.
• The frame is slimline with a full-length grip, giving a full hold on a thin pistol.
• The slide is optic ready, with a patented multi-footprint direct-mount cut for a low red dot.
• The Elite slide has directional serrations and a window cut, which aid manipulation and reduce slide mass.
• Sights are a green-outline tritium front and a serrated steel rear, a clear picture across lighting conditions.
• The trigger is a polymer flat-faced unit with a 4.5 to 5.0 pound pull.

A longer barrel on a thin frame gives a carry pistol more reach without more width, and the CR920XL is built on that idea. The bronze barrel adds contrast against the slide. Order it from our Lubbock, Texas gun shop for fast, insured shipping to your FFL, and browse more semi-auto handguns.
