Description
The Grand Power Q1 MK12 (UPC 8588005808392) is a compact striker-fired 9mm Luger pistol manufactured in Slovakia and imported by Global Ordnance. This is the full-capacity MK12 striker-fired variant, shipping with a 15-round magazine. The MK12 series features Grand Power's refined slide design without a factory optics cut, offering a clean slide profile paired with the company's proven rotary-locking barrel system.
The Q1 MK12 is built around Grand Power's rotary-locking barrel. The barrel rotates inside the slide to lock and unlock rather than tilting downward like the Browning-style action found in most modern handguns. This keeps the bore axis aligned throughout the firing cycle, producing less muzzle flip and felt recoil.
The striker-fired trigger system provides a consistent pull weight from the first shot to the last. An integrated trigger safety blade prevents the trigger from moving unless the shooter's finger is properly positioned on the trigger face. A passive firing pin block adds drop safety. There is no manual thumb safety — the Q1 MK12 is designed for draw-and-fire simplicity.
The 3.66-inch bull barrel is bushingless, machined from a single piece of steel. No barrel bushing or link is required, which reduces parts count and simplifies field-stripping.
The polymer frame features a textured grip for a secure hold and includes an integrated Picatinny accessory rail on the dust cover for weapon lights and lasers. Controls — slide stop and magazine release — are fully ambidextrous. The MK12 slide is machined from steel with refined front and rear serrations. Fixed iron sights are installed from the factory.
With 15+1 rounds of 9mm Luger, fully ambidextrous controls, and the recoil advantage of the rotary barrel, the Q1 MK12 is equally capable as a duty pistol, home defense tool, range trainer, or concealed carry option.

Still a Winner
Don't let the age of this model fool you, it does possess the same 2nd Gen improvements that graced the Q100... namely the blackened barrel, improved flat bladed trigger and upgraded accessories kit which does include three 15 rnd mags, backstraps, alternate front sight, cleaning brush and courtesy trigger lock. This is the LOWEST price you will find even used and.... sorry to say this guys, but at less than half the cost, this OG version is a better value than the new MK23!

Q1 Mk 12 is good to go!
As a longtime Grand Power fan I wanted to pick up another of the Mk 12 models at a discounted price before they’re no longer available. I’m very happy with it and performance at the range was great, just like my other Grand Power models. Highly recommend!

This is the best gun I ever owned. Very accurate

Rotating Barrel
I just picked the Q1 up from my FFL, so haven't shot it yet. Trigger feels good, though the over travel is a little long, but it is perfect for a defensive weapon. The grip seems a little slick, as I prefer more abrasive feel. Nothing a little grip tape can't fix. Great gun though. Are the sights compatible with ant other gun, someone said the CZ 75 aftermarket sights work for the front but wasn't sure about the rear?

Grand Power Q1
I bought this, for several reasons. I'M LEFT HANDED. In capital letters for emphasis, because Glock and other firearms manufacturers seem to think we are such a minority in the population, that a right handed gun with a 'swappable' mag release is good enough for us. Nope. These are the only guns I know of, that are fully ambi out of the box! Kudos, Grand Power. Second reason, is due to the glowing reviews from Graham Baates on GBGuns. He loves Grand Powers. For a gun guy that shoots everything to favor one maker, that tells me all I need to know. This gun shoots flat, and accurately. I was surprised that the slide length was the same as my Canik TP9 SF compact. I realized I could have bought a Q100. SO I DID, now I own two Grand Powers. I think these are the best gun value there is. Only two negatives- the mag release button, operating from either side, is stiff. I'd also like to see these available with tritium night sights as an option. My next handgun, is likely another Grand Power.

My new EDC
I was very impressed with the accuracy of this model. It is my first GP hand gun (I also recently purchased a Stribog SP9A3 and wow...) and it out performed my Canik TP9 SC, Hellcat Pro, Glock 19, P80 PFS9, and Glock 43X. It was in par with my performance center shields (I have 2) - maybe slightly better right out of the box .5" groupings on the bullseye at 7 yards. It took me a little to put it back together after running my first 100 rounds of aluminum case ammo (Blazer) but no biggie once you get the design. Maybe it's premature to switch to it as my EDC but everything about this model feels so right! I might carry a secondary for a bit until I put it through some additional tests.

Q1
Wow, what a bargain! I bought this gun on the Black Friday special. It had been on the outskirts of my radar for a while, and the sale brought it front and center. I really wish I hadn't waited so long, but I'm extremely glad I finally got one. Just added a little oil right of the box and ran mag after mag. After a couple hundred rounds, I can definitively say that this is one of the most slept-on secrets in the pistol world. The rotating barrel helps to tame recoil, and the trigger allows for fast and consistent shots. Double- and triple-taps are effortless as this gun only knows one speed: wide open. It punches well above its price point, and shoots even better than many striker-fired pistols from major manufacturers. The only thing I'd change would be to add a little more texture to the grip, bit with this gun being geared toward concealed carry, the current texture is perfect for that. Overall, I would buy this gun time and time again after this experience.

Grand Power Q1
WOW! The best kept secret for a 9MM. I loved this pistol's rotary barrel delay action. You definitely noticed less "flip" when firing. Amazing accuracy right out of the box. Nice comfortable high grip, light, smooth trigger, pistol is well balanced, each pistol is hand fitted and polished. The pistol has a tight slide to frame fit. There's nothing not to love. (However, currently, its hard to find a kydex holster.) Selling my Glock 19 to buy another Grand Power pistol.
