The new GX4XL combines all the performance features of the original GX4 micro-compact 9mm with a new slide and barrel configuration for enhanced accuracy and terminal performance.<\/p>\n<p>The GX4XL is built on the same award-winning polymer receiver as the GX4. Hailed for its exceptional handling characteristics in a micro-compact profile, the GX4XL\u2019s hybrid stainless steel and polymer receiver includes a modular grip with standard or high-swell backstrap options for a custom fit, industry-leading grip texturing for optimal firearm control, an ergonomic and reversible magazine release to promote no-fumble mag swaps, and a class-leading flat-face target trigger with a generous trigger guard to accommodate all hand sizes.<\/p>\n<p>What separates the GX4XL from the GX4 is its extended barrel and slide assembly. The GX4XL barrel is .64 inches longer than that of the GX4. This extended length translates to an increase in muzzle velocity and harder hits downrange. With this increased barrel length comes a longer slide profile and subsequent extended sight radius. Already noted for its remarkable accuracy, the GX4XL further tightens the point-of-aim\/point-of-impact ratio. In short, the deep-conceal GX4XL\u2019s micro-compact design gives up nothing in the kind of terminal performance, accuracy, and handling serious EDC practitioners demand.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-531381 size-full\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" width=\"641\" height=\"416\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1.jpg 641w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-560x363.jpg 560w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 641px) 100vw, 641px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-531381 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"641\" height=\"416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1.jpg 641w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thetruthaboutguns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/unnamed-1_1-560x363.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 641px) 100vw, 641px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>The carbon steel slide found on the GX4XL is treated with a gas nitride finish to enhance surface hardness and reduce wear\u2014a key consideration for a handgun intended for reliable everyday carry.
