Source-derived summary

The Detonix Series X is a family of multi-barreled pistols operating via an Anson-type action, manufactured in the Czech Republic by UNRRA Group s.r.o.

Design

The frame is manufactured from 7075 T6 duralumin, while the barrels are made of carbonitrided hardened steel. The superimposed barrels feature smooth bores and are available in double-barrel or six-barrel configurations. The striker is concealed and is cocked by "breaking" the barrel—a system known as an Anson-type action.

Models

According to manufacturer

Glad Lite XF6: Over-and-under double-barrel version chambered in 6 mm Flobert.

6X9 GRIM: Six-barrel version configured in a 3x2 array, designed to fire both the 9 mm Flobert Bosquette cartridge and its shotgun variant: the 9 mm Flobert Grenaille.

Gladiator .410 E1: Over-and-under double-barrel version designed to fire .410 cartridges with a maximum length of up to 2.5 inches.

Gladiator X4C: Compact version of the Gladiator .410 E1.

Gladiator X: Version available in 11.43 mm and 12.7 mm calibers. Unlike the other versions, these models are muzzle-loaded; powder is inserted first, followed by the bullet (sometimes requiring the use of a ramrod).

Editorial summary

The public source identifies “Detonics Series X” as open-knowledge reference entry. This brief keeps that definition visible, then builds a research path around Detonics, Series and Open-knowledge.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current 179-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its value is orientation rather than verdict, with Detonics, Series and Open-knowledge providing the first useful test.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Detonics Series X”, the useful work is to connect “open-knowledge reference entry” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q139801079. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
