The gun shoots flat. It also throws a wall of flame and concussion that he considers a legitimate liability in a defensive encounter. Below is the component-by-component breakdown, the performance observations from live fire, and the honest carry verdict — including the specific conditions under which he leaves this pistol at home. Key Takeaways The build uses an F Dez Works XL ACCS breech block and barrel with a stepped linear port plus a separate forward compensator block.
