This video addresses initial issues with the Fusion Firearms XP Pro, specifically the slide stop/release lever. The presenter confirms that a revised version of the pistol now features a properly positioned slide stop, resolving the problem of accidental engagement during a grip.

This review examines the CMC 2.5 lb Competition Trigger, highlighting its drop-in design and crisp break. While the aluminum housing and trigger shoe exhibit quality machining, the trigger shoe itself appears to be cast or MIM, leading to a less desirable tactile feel for the reviewer. The trigger consistently breaks at the advertised 2.5 lbs but the hooked design caused issues with short-stroking. The reviewer suggests alternative triggers in the same price range offer better performance.
