    Glock, M&P, CZ, & XD; bore axis question

    Does someone have information on which weapon have the lowest bore axis?

    I have handled all 4 brands but have never owned a M&P or have a scientific way of measuring. But I would assume CZ 75B would probably have the lowest bore axis, following by Glock & M&P, with the XD finishing last with the highest bore axis of them all.

    Is my assumption correct in this? Can someone post some info on it if available?

    So my assumed order is:

    CZ 75B = lowest bore axis
    Glock & M&P = lil higher than CZ but probably comparable with each other
    XD = highest bore axis of all

    Try and get your hands on a Steyr if you want to really see a low bore axis .

      Somewhere, online, there's a 3-way comparison of the M&P, Glunk and XD, with pictures showing the relative position of the bore axii. I think it might be on 10-8 forums, but wouldn't swear to it.

        I'm pretty sure glocks have the lowest bore axis, followed by M&P. Not sure about CZ vs XD, but generally striker fired guns can be made with a lower bore axis since a hammer needs more vertical space than a striker.
