EDC X9 2.0 Highlights
Launched in 2016, the EDC X9 rapidly rose to popularity, merging the timeless design of the 1911 with the cutting-edge features that modern shooters demand.
We are excited to introduce the EDC X9 2.0, which builds upon the foundation of its predecessor, featuring upgrades that deliver superior performance and reliability without sacrificing the visually striking aesthetics that have won widespread admiration since its debut.
Key New Features:
All-New Solid Frame Design: The EDC X9 2.0 is constructed using a durable, high-capacity compact aluminum X-Frame, designed to offer full-size performance in a sleek, EDC-friendly package with improvements made to enhance accuracy and reduce recoil.
Customizable 1911 Style Grips: Now more versatile than ever, the EDC X9 2.0 features new, easily interchangeable Classic 1911 style grips. These screw-on grips help you quickly fine-tune your setup and feel great in hand, striking the perfect balance between comfort and concealability.
Not Just Another Carry Pistol: Renowned for its legendary lightweight stature and striking visuals, the 2.0 withstands the demands of daily use and provides an exceptionally intuitive and comfortable shooting experience. Some might label it a classic, and others may call it a trendsetter, but make no mistake - the EDC X9 2.0 should never be underestimated as just another carry pistol.
About the X-Frame and Enhanced Reliability System
The X-Frame
Designed by Bill Wilson and Wilson Combat engineers, the X-frame is a 15-round, high capacity 9mm 1911 frame that is similar in size to a traditional compact, single stack 1911. The X-frame is machined at Wilson Combat from T6-7075 aluminum and accepts a high-capacity magazine with a grip that is smaller in circumference than a standard 1911 while retaining traditional 1911 controls. The EDC X9 15-round, double-column magazine was developed jointly with Mec-Gar, the industry leader in double-column magazine design.
"The EDC X9 has been the most extensive design and development project Wilson Combat has undertaken in our 40-year history, and it reflects what the company has become today from our humble beginnings as a one-man gunsmithing shop."
- Bill Wilson, CEO of Wilson Combat.
The Enhanced Reliability System
The EDC X9 slide assembly is from our single stack EDC 9 pistol with Wilson Combat's ERS "Enhanced Reliability System" for 9mm 1911's. The ERS is tailored to the varying power level of 9mm ammunition and maintains impressive reliability in all conditions, even when heavily fouled and low on lubrication. Other features include a Tri-Top slide profile with user-replaceable front sight, a single lug tapered cone match-grade 1911 barrel, rear Tactical Adjustable Battlesight, and a rugged, user-serviceable external extractor.
"During my extensive shooting of the EDC X9 during development and final testing, I have been very impressed with its functional reliability beginning all the way back to some of the early prototypes; this tells me the overall design is inherently very sound and I applaud our engineers and pistol smiths that worked so hard on this project."
- Bill Wilson, CEO of Wilson Combat.
