Both pistols have a similar feel in that they sit low in the hand, similar to the Arsenal Strike One. The standard models are offered with 4" barrels, but both companies have models with threaded barrels that meet the Canadian minimum length requirements. Neither company had the threaded versions at the range though.
Caracal Enhanced F
The Enhanced F is offered with two sight options: regular sights and the Quick Sight System, which places the rear sight forward of the ejector port. I found this gimmicky at first, but I have to admit that I found it much quicker to get a sight picture with it. That was a bit of a surprise. The trigger left a lot to be desired though. The reset was rather long and there was a pretty heavy and audible click when it did reset.
Quick Sight System
Archon Type B
In spite of it's blocky appearance, this pistol handled extremely well. The rep stated that their goal was to provide users with a pistol that was ready-to-go right out of the box, that did not required all of the after market upgrades (sights, controls, etc...) that are common with other strike-fired pistols. I think they were rather successful as I can honestly say that the only other striker-fired pistol I enjoyed shooting more than it today was the Walther Q5 Match. It was really a pleasure to shoot.
