Grand Power P1 Ultra Mk12

[Suburbazine]

I just picked up a new carry gun. Seems to be a less common model, not many reviews (but those were positive). Finding one in the continental US was very difficult, in fact I could only locate one dealer (Double M Defense) with any available for purchase. The serial number looks like it might be really low too.

So let's get down to why I purchased it-

Ambidextrous controls
9mm, double stack
Rotating barrel

Reportedly high reliability
DA/SA
Tool-less interchangeable grips

Right off the bat, there's only one thing I dislike about it, and will change ASAP. The sights are atrocious. Steel notch rear, Nerf fiber optic front. Anything but conducive to me lining up the sights. Fortunately, the sights are the same as a CZ 75. I'm leaning towards Truglo TFX Pro series, but if you know of a better or brighter sight that has a CZ 75 variant, let me know. Ease of acquisition is key because my vision isn't that great these days.



I haven't shot it yet to know how well it handles, but hopefully this weekend. Not pictured on the gun is my preferred grip, the DEEP palm extension grip with dovetail shown in the top image.

Trijicon HD is good. See if it will take the P10 sights.

I wish it would take P10 sights. Unfortunately it doesn't have the depth in the slide needed, hence the roller pin on the front sight.

How is the trigger? Is it muddy feeling with NO idea where it is in the take up?

If I'm pulling D/A, it's got some heft to it and is not very determinate as to where the hammer drops (it's at the very end of a long 10lb pull). S/A is very light and extremely short pull, I know the hammer is dropping perfectly every time.

I'm probably going to sand down the bottom of the trigger because it's pointy and annoying for starting a D/A pull.

I put about 300 through it last weekend and it ran perfectly. My accuracy is still terrible but my follow up shots are way closer together with this gun. Recoil is similar to a .22... soft and low rise. More importantly, my hands don't hurt
