The world of striker-fired polymer handguns designed for defensive and competitive use is a crowded one. This can make it tough for any manufacturer, even a large one, to stand out. However, Plano, Texas-based Shadow Systems is doing just that. Though they are a relatively new player, the well-engineered, high-quality handguns are building a coveted reputation. Various configurations are available ranging in size, barrel length and capacity. These are pistols designed to meet the needs of shooters, not a marketing team. Shadow Systems’ two newest designs, the compensated full-size DR920P and the subcompact CR920, are great examples of giving the market what it wants.
