Gun is garbage. I’ve handled a couple of them now and they are rough.
Feels like a cheap toy in hand and the trigger is absolutely horrendous. 2011’s really need to start with Staccato and go up...

I started a thread several months ago on these over on GT. Ugly, but it kind of appeals to me in some strange way.
I can’t really say one platform, as I enjoy many. The CZ design is outstanding and I love the Swiss Phoenix CZ clones and the CZ Custom A01-LD

They take standard CZ 75 Magazines
Finally picked this up last week. Ordered it back in April. I’m very pleased with the workmanship, balance, aesthetics, and trigger. Haven’t shot it yet, but I love shooting my Combat Master.

Well all I can say is that it’s taking a beating from the same people who put down any of the top end guns. Half of you have zero clue what you’re talking about, but, hey, I guess it feels good to...
Just picked this one up last week.

Different magwell, different backstrap and some lube I believe.
Everything they make is high quality
Here’s mine…

Pretty damn cool
Everything they produce is really high quality
Looks great
I assume you prefer the grip angle over the standard Alien?
They’re pretty cool guns
As soon as I pick up my Creator, I’ll have three myself
Jim,
I personally don’t see the Aliens as major competitors to the top 2011 pistols, but rather a unique design with unique shooting characteristics. Atlas 2011’s are tough to beat as pure shooters.
Actually got word mine is shipping now
Yeah mine also
Did you get a date?
To be fair, it’s a tightly fitted pistol and they are imported in fairly small numbers by American Precision Firearms. All of mine were fairly dry when I got them. I lubed them before shooting. I...
I love my Strike One pistols. I only own the high end all metal variants though…

The Phoenix pistols are awesome as well.

Yeah I have a Creator on the way to add to my other two.
I’m fortunate enough to own dozens of high end 1911’s from a variety of builders, including Wilson, Cabot, SACS, Baer, Nighthawk, Ed Brown, infinity, Guncrafter, etc
My favorite 1911 is the RRA...
Arma Zeka has been in Europe for a short time, but they are just trickling into the States now. My favorite LGS was able to snag me one of the first off the boat, serial #3.
Arma Zeka (or AZ for...
I don’t look at value as the cheapest. I look at value as the best quality for the dollar. You put another $700 into a $1300 Kimber and you have a used gun worth $1000 if you’re lucky. $700 into a...
I have always said, the best Kimbers are the base models.
I’ve owned several myself over the years.
I see Kimber as style over substance. All sorts of crazy slide cuts and color schemes, etc. They’re priced largely in the mid range, but deliver low end products from a quality standpoint.
No...
