DWX Compact. I love some of my other guns but they almost don’t even warrant mention in comparison.

I also love my stupid block 19 even though I have other better striker fired pistols, I’m one of the weirdos who thinks it’s pretty
 
I’d have to say some old no dash S&W revolvers. Pretty cool to see how well the guns we’re made in the 50’s & 60’s

1. Winchester 1300 Defender with a Vang Comp barrel
2. Glock 27 with Taran grip job
3. Remington 700 308 in a chassis
4. Beretta silver pigeon.
5. M1 Carbine
 
Okay I'll play.
#1 Staccato XL Tuxedo
#2 Phoenix Trinity
#3 Full size DWX
#4 CZ TS2 Racing Green
#5 CZ Shadow 2 SAO
#6 Any of my CZ Custom built by me 75b SAO frame with a TS upper on it. I have four of them and that's not counting the Bull Shadow builds I have.

Do you like the way the DWX shoots better than the CZs but not as much as the Staccato? Or does it depend what you’re shooting for?
 
1. Marlin 1894 in 44-40 from 1894. Still runs great
2. Nighthawk President in 9mm
3. Colt SAA Bisley in 32-20. Sure a bit of a pip squeak round, but its a classic
4. Fulton Armory “tanker” Garand in .308. Hush you .308 haters
5. Daewoo DR200. The AK/AR Korean Lovechild.
 
In no particular order:

Browning Hi-Power T-series 1968
M14/M1A Scout
Accuracy International Rem 700 5R
H&K G3
Colt 70 series Gov't Issue 1911

I would say the DWX and Staccato shoot about the same. Both have just about the same trigger pull and reset. Now the big difference for me is in the grip. The Staccato has a nice textured grip but the DWX has a higher more centered grip which makes it feel more balanced to me. As for the DWX better than my other CZs yes on the 75 series but I would say my TS2s and the DWX are pretty close to each other. I have made most of my 75s nice shooters but the DWX is definitely a better gun.

What's the recoil difference between the M1 and the G3? Anything noticeable?

I find the G3 to be more noticeable, and both of them are equipped with pads. But I must stress, that is just my own personal experience.

A friend of mine said the same thing about his G3 knock off. He felt like there was more mass moving rearward than on other semi auto 308s.
 
JMO G3 kicks pretty hard. doesnt seem particularly "roller delayed" vs say compartively to MP5 variants. Garand .308 which is similar to m14/m1a is softer
