The Wilson Combat EDC X9 2.0 in this 4-inch configuration adds an ambidextrous thumb safety and an optic-ready slide to the compact version of Wilson’s double-stack carry 1911 (brand part no. 2EDCX-CPR-9A-OR). The 4-inch stainless cone barrel is fluted and finished with a flush-cut reverse crown, locking into a stainless Tri-Top slide finished in black Armor-Tuff. The aluminum X-Frame with Wilson’s reliability-enhanced rails holds 15 rounds of 9mm in each of the two included magazines, and the X-TAC treatment on the front strap and back strap keeps the grip planted. A red fiber-optic front and an elevation-adjustable Battlesight rear sit on the slide, with the RDS cover plate ready to come off for a red dot. Wilson guarantees 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards. For a left-handed shooter, or anyone who wants the safety on both sides of a carry 1911, this Wilson Combat is the version to order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the safety truly ambidextrous? Yes. This configuration ships with Wilson’s Bullet Proof ambidextrous thumb safety, so the lever is on both sides of the frame for left- or right-handed carry.

Can I mount a red dot? Yes. The slide is optic-ready and ships with an RDS cover plate that carries the rear sight; remove the plate to mount a dot directly to the slide.

How accurate is it? Wilson Combat guarantees 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards from the 4-inch cone barrel and hand-fit slide.
