The Archon Type B is pretty much the same as the Strike One. I took the ARCHON to the range with 400 rounds of various type/weights/makers of 9mm. ZERO malfunctions, unreal accuracy, the flattest shooting handgun I own. I am a former Lawman and SWAT guy and I wish we would have had these when I was on the team. I have a owned a ton of pistols over the years and this one shoots better, is more accurate and feels better the rest. I let a deputy friend of mine shot it and his reaction was "WTF?!!, where do you get these?!!!"
Beautiful comparison. The Arsenal is fantastic, especially in the Speed Ergal model, with Extreme trigger. But try to see the news, which goes beyond Arsenal... the Xdb Rapax.
I own an Arsenal strike one. It is a tack driver for sure. I had the trigger modded by Salient arms. It is light trigger pull but it still has a lot of travel with a long reset. I just can't bring myself to pay $5500 for an Alien.
I dont think this particular model comes optic ready. Salient Arms were selling Gucci model of this gun a d they might have one optic ready. Not even sure who imports them anymore. Sorry
I have two archons and the triggers don’t get hot, ive heard that well. I shoot idpa and USPSA. Ive had the slide hot enough to notice but never noticed the trigger being hot. The archon is such a great gun it drives my curiosity to the arsenal striker one.

I fxxked up big ! Could have bought a strike 1 a few years back fkr 500$ ... Story of my life lol
Nice comparison Bald
When you watch the slowmo the Alien is much flatter. Almost too Flat!!! Damn that's a awesome handgun!!!
Who does optic cuts on the Arsenal strike one? I want that pistol but I’ve been holding out because I can’t find anyone that cuts them up.
No clue. But the way mine is built ,I'd tether have mount that replaces rear plate and sight
That Alien tho👽🔥🔥🔥
I wonder why the strike pistol didn't catch on and go mainstream ?
Kind of like Grand Power , Lack of marketing and aftermarket support

l won an Arsenal a few years ago. Great trigger and it was a tack driver but, l hated the fixed rear sight.
I was thinking of making adapter , so I can take rear sight/plate off and replace it with dot mount .Couldn't find anybody that would make only 1
I love my arsenal strike one
Could you tell me who has the optics ready version?

I don't have Archon , but do have Alien , after few hundred rounds dumping , slide gets hot and the trigger , but not hot enough to touch it.
Time for some more Bald and Furious!!!!
Please compare Alien VS RIA 5.0
Unfortunately I don't have one
My shadow 2's return to point of aim after each shot. I don't really worry about muzzle flip anymore. I actually don't really notice it.
trust me , this would speed up your doubletaps ,Too bad it's not CO legal
Alien is impressively flat. Two nice handguns.
it sure is
There is a new Arsenal for the usa
New Strike One or new Arsenal importer ?
@@Baldcurious arsenal importer
Just bought a strike 1 speed, idahoguns has them, 1 of the few importers
@@ToolFoolz I'd be interested to know how it differs
Boy that shoots flat
That Arsenal is super flat. Not much different than the Alien.....
thet weight make the difference . Alien has little lower bore axis but it's double the weight
