The OA 2311 isn’t a 1911/2011. It never had a grip safety.

Atlas doesn’t use a polymer grip.

Grip safeties are not necessary on competition guns and most of the top brands pin it.

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...

No thumb safety on the original

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.

Fits in well with my other X Series...

Love mine…

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...
