By The Numbers
Accuracy
Shooting standard 115-grain practice ammo, both guns averaged 1-inch to 1.5-inch groups at 7 yards.
Reliability
Our guns ran extremely well during the course of our testing.
Customization
There aren’t a lot of customization options for the Stribogs yet, but that isn’t a knock on the guns. They are still pretty new, and aftermarket options are still developing.
Ergonomics
The A1 offers a little more room than the A3S, but the ergonomics are pretty similar to an AR pistol.

FINAL VERDICT
"The Grand Power Stribogs are a couple of great options if you’re in the market for a reliable, accurate, compact upgrade in firepower. Stowed in a backpack or tucked behind a seat, even stashed in the home, these firearms offer quite a defensive surprise to anyone on the other end. When compared to peers in the market, they are thousands of dollars less for similar attributes. While the initial offering was a bit hampered by the reciprocating charging handle, that is no longer an issue with current models." - Sean Curtis
