American Rifleman’s Dope Bag found the P11 to be a “highly accurate, useful and interesting handgun that could easily serve as a combination home-protection and concealed-carry pistol.” Included is a 3.3” stainless steel barrel designed for recoil operation by way of a rotating barrel that cams against a hardened steel pin mounted within the steel chassis of the polymer frame.
The P11 is a full-featured pistol with enhanced ergonomic features, which include textured grip panels, cocking serrations both fore and aft on the gun’s steel slide and a high-grip radius molded below the gun’s beavertail rear and rear of the trigger guard. These enhancements enable shooters to engage with the firearm with a lower bore axis in relation to the shooting grip. Putting accurate fire downrange is aided by a set of three-dot adjustable sights. Grand Power includes a section of Picatinny rail for accessories.
