Products reviews

Prompt delivery, good price great product. Will order here again.

Just love this holster. Top quality, easy to take on and off. It hugs my side and the pistol doesn't make a large print when I carry my Sig P365 concealed. I probably will never have to replace this holster because I'm sure it will last a lifetime.

OUTSTANDING FIREARM AND VALUE! This is my first 1911. I really wanted to move into the high-end custom / semi-custom handfit 1911s and to experience that level of quality.

The EVO KC9 has top quality parts, build, fit and finish - the same quality that $3,500+ firearms offer. Ed Brown confirmed this fact; building KC9 in batches allowed them to offer the same quality but at the $1,895 price point, opening doors to different option batches and the 9mm 1911 market segment.

Initial Impressions:
Out of the box - actually out of the very nice and compact range bag made by Bulldog, the KC9 was everything that I was expecting. Excellent fit and finish and attention to detail.

The profile is nice and slim, yet the grips feel substantial in the hand. Bull Barrel. The “Snakeskin” pattern on the front and back of the grip is amazing - hands slide up but not down. The 7-top cut slide is really nice, as are the stylish but functional slide serrations.

The stainless finish quality is excellent.

On The Range:
The “Tactical Edge” rear sight (all-black) is new to me - the half-circle cut is very small which is awesome for precise aiming; I could see the front sight moving even when I thought that I was perfectly still - very accurate!

The front sight is the Orange HD XR in daylight and glows green at night (another first for me, and I like it!) The raised portion of the grip safety definitely helped me transition to 1911.

Mags slide effortlessly in or out with the mag release button depressed. However, a firm press (but no whack) is required to insert with 9 + 1.

The mag release is firm, but I don’t find it to be a problem - I’d rather have a firm press than mags accidentally falling out. Reach to the mag button requires adjusting your grip or a second hand.

Two 9-round mags are provided (including plastic base plate extensions for optional use.) I’d rather leave the mag extensions off, and like the reference of feeling the flat mag baseplate siting flush.

The manual safety is quite firm as well, especially when activating the safety. Body mechanics make it easier to push DOWN for safety off. This is actually good for concealed carry, as I doubt that the safety would easily “walk” to the off position.

The trigger is really crisp to the point that I thought that it was heavier than the trigger spec of 3.5 to 4.5 pounds. Top Gun measured the trigger pull at just under 4 pounds - exactly to spec. I am anticipating the trigger break loosening up a bit at around 500 rounds.

Ammo:
Ed Brown recommends 115 or 124 grain ammo, stating that 147 grain might be a bit much especially with cartridges a bit on the long side. Federal or Winchester White Box recommended.

The EVO KC9 ate all the ammo that I fed it without a hiccup. Federal and Winchester were out of stock, so I ran S&B 115gr and 124gr FMJ, SIG 124gr Elite V-Crown JHP, and Hornady 115gr Critical Defense (a very short round.) This gun feeds well!

Accuracy:
Accuracy is so awesome that I am actually getting bored with paper targets! I just ordered some steel targets from MGM Targets in AR550 hard steel... REALLY looking forward to them! Hickok45 has an excellent video on shooting steel safely.

There are not many Ed Brown EVO KC9s around in inventory. Scoop one up if it appeals to you! I found it to be an excellent entry into custom 1911s.

My experiences with Top Gun Supply have always been excellent.

I received a set of old side notched zipperback P226 magazines with tired springs. I knew standard mag springs wouldn’t fit, so I emailed Brad for a recommendation. He replied quickly and provided a link to the correct Wolff springs. I purchased the springs and had them in my mailbox within 48 hours. Fantastic service! I’ve always been happy with my TGS purchases, which always have a handwritten thank you note (Who else does that?) and will continue to do business with them.

You can never have enough magazines. I wanted a different option to sitting at a bench using a bipod or bag without having to make unnecessary adjustments while using a standard capacity magazine. This magazine fits that bill. Functions perfectly in my Windham AR.

I recently bought my Hk usp 45 from Top Gun and I was amazed how quickly my order was processed and how fast my gun shop received it I had questions when I brought it home and after business hours I was help quickly overall my experience with Top gun went Above my expectations

Such awesome customer service and quality parts which shipped out super quick

Very happy with my purchase. They are fast and professional. I had a few questions and when I called they were polite and knowledgeable. I will be placing more orders very soon! Great People!

This sight exceeded my expectations. Was very easy to install on my Glock 34 Gen 5 mos. Great sight to acquire immediate accuracy!

works excellent on my Legion 229 especially with the standard SRT trigger- easy to install- video on you tube- highly recommended

Quality parts reasonably priced

Great availability, and reasonable prices

UpLila Magazine SpeedLoader is a tool that should be owned by everyone that loads a pistol magazine. The best tool I have.

work perfectly just like sig mags. I believe mec-gar makes sig mags. also a lot cheaper.

works good and no problems

As always, first rate service from Top Gun. Grip came in original SIG box with all the parts needed. Took less than five minutes to switch the grip out. Top Gun is a “go to”
for excellent products at great prices, with customer service that’s second to none. A++

The VM2 is about as good as your get in a leather holster. I own several different types of concealed carry holsters, but nothing beats leather for comfort. Shipping was extremely fast, I am very pleased with this purchase.

These adapters are a little bit too thick above the mounting grooves. When installed on Walther PPQ mags, they stop against the bottom of the grip/mag well and won't latch until you give them a strong rap. They are then latched so tightly that the mag release is hard to press. The fix is to put each plus 2 extension on a belt sander or on a sheet of sandpapter on a flat surface and thin out the part that is above the grooves that engage the magazine, to provide some clearance for the mag when seated. This took about a minute for 4 adapters, and the mags seat perfectly now. Other than that, they are great, eliminating the need for a mag funnel.

They worked as they should. They feel no different than the magazines that came with the gun.

Wow, fast shipping, great price, great deal overall. Will definitely purchase more from them in the future!

Good prices and fast shipping.

TGS has always rendered fast, efficient and friendly service, online, telephone, and in the local establishment. Never disappointed.

The E2 Grip kit arrived quickly, was as described and the video installation tutorial was most helpful.
Be advised, you may or may not need the shorter hammer strut springs as mentioned in the video. I did, and the assortment came quickly for Wolff.

Thanks, TGS!

Ordered this Sig magazine catch, along with some Sig recoil springs. Price was right and the shipping was very fast. Got me back on the range in no time. Great customer service!

Really impressed with the speed in shipping and the security of packaging. Will be doing more with Topgun

I've always been an OWB carry guy but wanted to try IWB. While there are many great holster makers out there, they didn't have what the VM2 offered. I have been using this holster daily for the past few weeks to give it an honest try and review. The VM2 has made the transition to IWB carry very easy and smooth. I carry a SIG P229 in .40 S&W and didn't think stuffing that pudgy gun inside the waistband of my pants would be comfortable, but this holster makes it feel like it's a natural part of my jeans. While you need to go a pant size larger, this holster conceals and carries very well. I still carry OWB, but this holster has converted me to an IWB guy. Thanks to Milt Sparks and thank you Top Gun for having it in stock so I didn't have to wait several weeks to get it.
