First Mag Review: Grand Power Q1s

About this video

Colion presents his first impressions of the Grand Power Q&S, a subcompact concealed carry pistol from Slovakia. He describes his unscripted range experience, highlighting the gun’s fully ambidextrous controls, unusual trigger break point, and surprisingly soft recoil, which he attributes to the rotating barrel system. Despite initial skepticism about the unfamiliar design, Colion reports growing appreciation for how the firearm handles and points naturally.

Key takeaways

• Colion notes the Grand Power Q&S features fully ambidextrous controls including magazine release and slide lock on both sides, making it suitable for left or right-handed shooters
• According to Colion, the trigger breaks at an unexpected midpoint rather than at the rear wall, which he found initially jarring but increasingly intuitive after continued shooting
• Colion describes the recoil as exceptionally soft, which he attributes to the rotating barrel system, allowing quick target reacquisition despite the gun feeling top-heavy
