    I am impressed with the number of positive reviews, particularly considering the combination of price point and "Glockteen-eleven" nature of the gun.

    The full-rail aluminum Commander is just about exactly what I would be looking for in a 9mm 1911. We are suffering an embarrassment of riches in today's world. I let myself fall down the OZ9 rabbit hole, and LTT is offering dots for USPs and all the 92 variants, annnd now this thing arrives and appears well-reviewed.

    If anyone gets one, please post pics so that this member of the peanut gallery can sigh wistfully.
    Per the PF Code of Conduct, I have a commercial interest in the StreakTM product as sold by Ammo, Inc.

    Not sure how I feel about Cerakote being the only finish option. I’m holding out for a PVD/DLC option.
    I like my rifles like my women - short, light, fast, brown, and suppressed.

    Very favorable review of the Platypus. However he notes that the lack of a polymer grip makes it transfer more shock to the hand compared to polymer gripped 2011's.

    9mm hand shock. Clearly, people are getting softer as the years pass.

    Pity, I sold my Glock and its several magazines.
    Guess I will have to just shoot my STI.

    Some old farts around here are all excited by the gun. I asked why because we are a 10 round state. They said it had a great trigger. That's a lot of money for a trigger.

    If someone likes all the things a Platypus brings to the market and wants to carry it, rock on. I just want people to have a reliable, accurate sidearm, that is well maintained, with good training under their belt. In a 10 round state, I would be more drawn to a single stack 1911 with a 10 round mag but to each their own.
