What Makes the Witness 2311 Match X Stand Out?
This isn’t just another 1911 clone. The Match X comes with a built-in compensator to help control muzzle rise and keep your shots on target. The trigger is crisp and tuned to about 4.5 lbs, making it ideal for fast follow-up shots. You’ll also appreciate the optic-ready slide if you like running red dots, and the mag well makes reloads fast and easy. Combine that with a full-length rail for lights or lasers, and you’ve got a pistol that’s ready for whatever you throw at it — whether that's a match stage or a home defense scenario.
