Really nice looking gun. I am currently in the market for a double stack 1911/2011. Those grips look like they don't taper in the thumb-forefinger area; do they taper at all? And, is there a generous trigger guard undercut? I have felt the Springfield Prodigy. It felt very comfortable because of those two features. You have a good amount of time on the Prodigy. I would like to hear your comparison of ergonomics.
Ria tac fs hc 9mm, just got it this week very surprised with the quality for sub $800 Bul armory is one of my favorite 2011s . Havent touch a prodigy yet but i hear their very decent now. Platypus 19111 ds - take glock mags Alpha foxtrot s15- glock mags Live free armory apollo 11- sub $900 Girsan witness 2311 -sub$900 Honestly the market is growing. You cant go wrong with anyone
Yeah, don't buy that junk the video. Dom beat me to it... RIA Tac Ultra FS 9mm is one of the best inexpensive guns there are. RIA's PH plant built the chassis that many popular US gun companies used long ago, before stateside CNC was cheaper. After you get used to the gun, send it to Hayes Gunworks for a full workover, and you'll get back a staccato level gun for half or less.
@@m4rvinmartian highly recommend. Im going the dsc gunworks route with the island port conversion😎. I find i pefer double stack 1911s over 2011s. Im big guy , so weight is not an issue. Looking to purchsde another ria tac ultra fs hc next week.
Needs a lighter in design hammer, improved beveling on that magwell, and, a little more blending under the trigger-guard/magazine release. If they run an LE program I would be interested. I like it.
Hey there, you made a video on the Hard Head Veterans Helmet you got. Would be nice to see a long term use review after the 2+ years the video has been up, aswell as maybe see you in "action" with it on.
Thank you for your video! Did you have any issues with the grip being too small or slippery? Did you try shooting in wet conditions? How did the TWC9 compare to the Staccato P? If there is one negative on You Tube about this pistol, it is the smooth grip. What are your thoughts? Thank you. JP
The grip isnt actually smooth. Ive seen lots of comments about that. It feels like some kind of micro texture almost like 3000 grit sandpaper. Its very grippy.
I was hoping so, when I left LE the goal was to be doing this full time. Around a year ago I was pulled in to another role that needed my main attention so sadly G&T had to take a step back. Hoping to get back to some more regular content, might not be as in depth as I am used to or would like but I think that will be ok.
the front profile is mean looking.. wow nice unit. please tell them to do grip panels like some do.. right side palm swell, flat on the other or swell pushed forward a bit.
Can't do grip panels without increasing the size of the grip. One of the special things about the TWC is that even as a double stack, even in all-metal, it maintains the original 1911 GI grip dimensions.
Dave I found as I fire myTWC-9. The backstrap or Thumb safeties hurt my hand. I not sure if its the if my grip is the problem or what. I do have a high grip and don't want to change it. This is my first impression . I dont have any problem with the texture of the grip. At this time i only have 50 rounds thur it.
Gonna have to agree on the texturing. Best feeling gun grip I’ve ever felt was 25LPI front & back with the Railscales Agent 2 grips on a single stack. Next level and nothing has come close. Fun looks different enough at least. Definitely going to wait for an update to that frame texture though.
As a builder and custom 1911 smith, these guys are the real deal! Aerospace engineers, all parts are perfectly fit and machined, flawless workmanship and absolutely no hiccups while sending close to 1000 rounds down range on my personal gun. On par with my Staccato P and c2.
It looks cheap, from the front/rear serrations to the grip. They should of left the front end/full dust rail and slide alone, no ball cut. Better simple old school 1911 Colt front/rear serrations style, that grip looks very cheap and the lack of side texture is just dumb. Not worth the $2500.
