The reviewer highlights its features, including a 1911 grip angle, excellent texturing, RMR cut, night sights, and a CMC trigger, all contributing to a comfortable and accurate shooting experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price and value of the Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol?

The Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol has an MSRP of $1500, with street prices around $1300. The reviewer argues that the price is justified by the extensive out-of-the-box features, such as an RMR cut, night sights, and enhanced ergonomics, which would be costly and potentially void warranties if added aftermarket to a standard pistol.

How does the Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol handle and shoot?

The pistol features a 1911 grip angle and excellent texturing, making it very comfortable to shoot. It shoots flat and fast, with good accuracy demonstrated by hitting B8 targets at 25 yards and clay pigeons at over 30 yards. The CMC trigger is also noted as a positive feature.

Are there any reliability issues with the Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol?

The reviewer encountered occasional fail-to-eject issues with a specific lot of Winchester White Box 147-grain ammunition. This was resolved by replacing the stock Glock 336 ejector with a Glock 30274 ejector, which improved ejection consistency for all tested ammunition.

What is the holster compatibility for the Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol?

Due to a slightly wider dust cover, the pistol may not fit all standard Glock holsters, particularly some Safariland ALS and duty holsters. However, Safariland GLS holsters are compatible, and Safariland is reportedly developing new molds. A list of compatible holsters is available on the Grey Ghost Precision website.

What are the key features of the Grey Ghost Precision Combat Pistol?

Key features include a 1911 grip angle, aggressive frame texturing, RMR cut slide, front and rear night sights, a CMC flat-face trigger, extended controls, and a match-grade barrel. It comes with three 17-round Magpul PMAGs and a quality padded carrying pouch.
