    I think the magwell add on can be removed. Admittedly I just skimmed the write up

    Bless them for making a non-lightrail version. If someone wanted an improved P35, this would be worth considering.

    If that magwell is removable, I’m in.

    Dang that looks good, in a functional way. The looks I am "meh" about.

    Very interested to see if the grip area on this pistol is indeed slightly larger with the "high swept" beaver tail being any different that the EDC X9. As much as I love my EDC X9 it is no longer my daily carry because drawing the pistol at speed, I have not been able to avoid gripping so high that my admittedly substantial meathook does not regularly ride up the top of the beaver tail and foul my grip (just like with a Glock). I have tried to train around it and even with the large backstrap it is just a little too small.

    A 5" version with a little more real estate in the grip area or a slightly improved beaver tail would be my ideal carry gun.

    It's optional. A dealer on 1911forum says Wilson is coming out with 18rd mags soon.

    Somehow, the front sight of my X9 finds the notch in the rear sight faster than any pistol I've ever tried. Even my favorite 1911 wont index as perfect as the X9. You probably just need to get a full size single stack with the full-size beavertail.
