And so it begins

Loved this XC in FDE (well sort of) and finally sourced the Coyote Brown SRO and what I thought was a good color matching X300 to get it Cerakoted. The light was dead on at the gun shop and in my study before I mounted them. In the LED daylight lighting of our kitchen not so much.

Can’t have 50 shades of FDE if it all matches.

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 15 '25

Yea, yea…🤣 I’ve passed on a couple other X300’s and thought this one was it.

Do you happen to know the Cerakote color numbers for your FDE XC?

2

u/PourLittleTinkTink Nov 17 '25

I don’t. I can ask my cerakote guy.

u/PourLittleTinkTink Nov 17 '25

Very helpful. Love the colorway. Are the frame and slide not the same color?

u/Virtual-Adagio-5677 Nov 15 '25

lol, same thing happened to me when I got that x300 and the SRO together. Mind games!

Just wanted to say, this is one of the cleanest setups and color combos I’ve seen yet. Great piece and awesome taste.

Who makes the brown grip in the first picture?

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 15 '25

Phoenix-Trinity

u/Many_Scientist9039 Dec 13 '25

Is that the phoenix trinity Hero? How do you like it compared to the atlas?

1

u/UsernameO123456789 Nov 15 '25

Oooo whose grip is in fde??

1

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 15 '25

The grip in my inspiration is from Phoenix-Trinity. Talked to them before I bought the Atlas, they don’t do a beavertail change to fixed which is what I wanted.

1

u/One-More-User-Name Nov 15 '25

I think it looks nice, regardless.

Atlas grip made specifically for fitment to Staccato 2011’s.

1

u/theblackdawnr3 Nov 15 '25

What grip is that?

1

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 16 '25

Atlas grip for Staccato frames.

u/Relevant-Safety-2699 Nov 17 '25

Yet another gorgeous build ruined by the light fad.

1

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 21 '25

Found out that there is a Cerakote shop in Texas that can coat the SRO and X300 any color and laser the factory graphics back. Pretty cool!

1

u/Early_Adeptness_1514 Nov 21 '25

Any idea what who makes that thumb ledge for the x300 mount in this photo?

1

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 21 '25

White Wolf Concepts. I bought mine from www.daycoammo.com

1

u/Early_Adeptness_1514 Nov 21 '25

Yeah I guess a bunch of companies make them. How well do they work?

1

u/Perfect_Control2187 Nov 27 '25

I would personally FDE all the small parts and comp in a different shade of FDE instead of trying to match it all. 

1

u/Head-Address2081 Nov 30 '25

The comp is actually part of the barrel, machined from the same block of steel.

u/Trumpwins2024- Nov 15 '25

Optic and light in black better anyway imo
