Introducing for 2025: Bersa M2XI Pistol Model
Introducing the Bersa M2XI: A Modern Take on the M1911
Bersa, a well-known manufacturer of AR-15s, M1911s, and suppressors, is set to enter a new era with the introduction of its first 2011-style design, the M2XI, in 2025. This pistol, crafted in the USA, promises to deliver a blend of traditional M1911 features and modern innovations.
The M2XI is chambered in the reliable 9 mm Luger and features a slide made of 416 stainless steel, just like its mainframe. The slide sports lightening cuts in the front and a drift-adjustable square notched rear with a serrated face, ensuring a secure grip during operation. The slide also includes optics cut with a Holosun K footprint, making it compatible with a wide range of optics.
The M2XI's slide features a front post with tritium insert for improved visibility in low-light conditions. The slide does not use a bushing where it interfaces with the frame, a design choice that enhances durability and precision.
The M2XI's frame includes a polymer grip module with a removable, flared magazine well, providing a comfortable grip and quick magazine changes. The pistol's action and controls are traditional M1911, including a hammer-fired, single-action-only firing mechanism, grip safety, and manual thumb safety.
The M2XI's trigger is skeletonized and flat-faced for a crisp, clean pull. The pistol boasts a squared-off, undercut trigger, a Picatinny accessory rail on its dustcover, and an extended beavertail, all aimed at improving shootability and customisation options.
The M2XI's 5" match-grade bull barrel, also made of stainless steel, promises accuracy and longevity. The pistol's height of iron sights allows them to co-witness with an installed optic, making it a versatile choice for various shooting scenarios.
The M2XI uses STI/Staccato pattern magazines and comes with one 17-round and one 22-round extended magazine, offering flexibility in ammunition capacity. The pistol weighs 30 ozs, providing a good balance between weight and control.
The M2XI is available in two finish options: black nitride finish or brushed stainless. The Bersa M2XI has an MSRP of $1,479 for either the black or stainless finish.
Unfortunately, the name of the CEO of Bersa, the manufacturer of the M2XI, is not available in the provided search results. Regardless, the M2XI is poised to make a significant impact in the world of pistols, combining the proven reliability of the M1911 with modern features and design.
