Our Most Requested Gun Review of 2023 - Type A EG11

Yeah, it's amazing what content creaters can do with an actual budget. Perhaps you can steal some of James Reeves hair, make up and booty surgery budget, like even just 1% of that would be a cool million dollars. That's like TWO Sony cameras.

[@cchadnelson]

[@ArtistryBranson]

As a never-miss-an-episode fan of channels like Demolition Ranch, KY Ballistics and the like, not to mention the quality production and scientific value of the Slow-Mo Guys and Ballistic High Speed, i gotta say it. I have a new favorite KZbin channel. Not just Gun-Tube. Crispy is a brilliant talent and the chemistry shows through on camera and in the editing and overall production. I pray my audio quality is half this good. Thanks for your dedication to the craft and the 2A Community!

[@xFrust]

I was just about to say, production is on a whole different level. Construction of the video, information was beautifully presented and the visuals uses of the pistol in the montage was awesome. The dynamic between you guys is infectious in the video too. It makes the learning about the pistol that much more enjoyable. Definitely earned a sub

High Dollar 1911/2011's are like Corvettes, my brother had to keep his under 55/60 mph's for just over 500 miles before he could let loose, and after 500 miles he had to have an oil change first.....Everything needs broke in. Smart marketing on the package set up! Great video, nice pistol!

[@smith8124]

🤦🏼‍♂️ You absolutely do not need to do this with any modern vehicles. Don’t go bouncing it off the freaking rev limiter, don’t do a bunch of greater than 2/3 throttle accelerations, and you’re fine. The rings ar gonna mate to the cylinder walls and the transmission gears are gonna wear to each other in a couple hundred miles.

Done.

[@awdobsession717]

@@smith8124Im not a Chevy engineer, like I said the manual tells you about the proper break in period. The dealer recommended break in follows that. While I agree with you that it’s just another engine, it doesn’t change what the manufacturer states about their own engine.

At that price i wouldnt be interested. I own a Staccato XC, but if i was going to spend even more then what i spent on my XC it would be going to an Atlas Athena or Nighthawk Sandhawk. Great review, thanks for showing it!

[@drpoomanchu]

How is your XC and how do you feel about the XC for the price ? Thnx

[@Rye_-kq3jn]

@@drpoomanchu take it from someone whose owned the whole staccato lineup. The P DPO model is the best bang for your buck. I bought the XC and it was not worth the $2k markup over the P model. Just my honest opinion. The XC is cool but not worth the premium.

[@justinmoore4088]

@1911 Syndicate I just watched this video today, and frankly, I don't understand how this video got by me when you initially released it... Type A guns are top tier, and I had the same concerns you did about this gun. So glad it's such a solid blaster! I'm hoping to be able to order a double stack soon... now I have to choose between this gun, the Fowler and Chambers Customs. With that being said...I'm hoping a Chambers double stack review will be in the channel's future!!!

[@butchjones1486]

A great company makes a great product. But these custom guns can be finicky. With: 1. Special break in periods 2. Certain Ammo loads 3. Frequent Cleaning to keep it running smooth 4. Not necessarily a SHTF GUN But maybe that's not its purpose.

[@barnacanbull]

all i’m gonna say is…. 👏🏼1911 Syndicate!! First with the Nighthawk BDS9 and now first to this.

[@1911syndicate]

Glad you enjoyed

[@mitchelperkins6723]

Impressive first release from a Badazz rifle company! I really like the slide treatment, checkering vs: "Nomal" serrations. And the grip side checkering is a nice addition with the aggressive feont and rear treatment. I recently built my own DS1911 on a JEM Guns frame, Fusion monolithic commander slide and a single port comp.of my design. Overall top end is 5" Gov. Model length ( pseudo Staccato XC) Very pleased with it after over 1000 trouble free rounds. Would love to own this version, amd may sell off several of my 1911 pistols i built here.. Love your channel, the reviews and production quality. Pretty sure ill get through viewing all the videos soon. Keep up the great work, looking forward to many more entertaining and informative videos. Cheers( toasting with a glass of Gentleman Jack)!

[@1911syndicate]

Cheers mate

[@Johnblaze678]

And you guys did it again. Top notch content, review, production, relatability. I watch a lot of KZbinrs, but you guys easily are my favorite channel. I do have a con....I was pretty sure I was going to take Jakes advice and progress slowly through the various tiers of 2011s. I have a Staccato P with Monsoon chunk port and some other customizations. I was pretty sold on going Fowler next, but now this entered the ring. I also caught wind of two new 2011s releasing that have piqued my interest. Vulcan Machineworks is releasing the 3L3V3N 2011. And I'm sure you know Pew View who does all the trick shots. He's partnering with Watchtower Firearms to release the "Apache" 2011. It's a XC esque ported 2011 coming in at only $3,599. So many options 😫

[@1911syndicate]

Appreciate it bro

You guys have great production quality as stated by many. That being said you are my defacto 1911 / 2011 people to watch.

[@TaterGrabbinBass]

I love Type A rifles, I have 2 of them and they’re from my home town in Grand Rapids so I wanted to support them. I’ve been super interested in the EG11 more for a “range toy” or a competition pistol because it’s too big for EDC, I wish instead of the RMR they would have either put the RMR HD or the SRO on the package pistol at the price point they have it at. I hope they come out with a commander length version and possibly down the line an EDC similar to the Staccato CS 3.5”. I don’t think I’d get this 5” version because of the length making it “less versatile” for me but it is still a great introduction to the “1911/2011” pistol game and I hope they stick with it and continue to open up the line more. I’m also waiting for Type A to make a .30 cal piston driven rifle option and I’ve spoken with “BG” about that because I asked them to make me a 14.5” 6.5 creedmoor Contractor (piston driven) and I cannot wait for them to roll out the .30 cal piston rifles! TYPE A FTW! 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

[@hendrikhammerling1476]

Wow…just wow. Great video guys.

[@EmpTy-kf2rq]

If the package was with the new HD RMR and a Surefire Turbo, then the package would be more enticing, to me.

Traded a staccato P for a 13.7 contractor. Love that rifle. Have been looking to get another 2011 and have been curious about this one. Literally have the exact same QVO holster, down to the color, and was wondering the whole time if the eg11 would fit 😂.

So im ready for the next level in double stack 1911s. Im a lefty BTW, shout out to Papa Jake. I'm gonna follow your advice and take my time before going to Atlas and ultimately Infinity. Should I go Vanta 9 or EG11?

[@1911syndicate]

They’re very competitive with each other so honestly I would pick based on which has better availability at the moment

[@Johnblaze678]

Thanks, that is super helpful. I actually think I just answered my question. The Fowler owner posted a video a few months ago saying they would be pausing all work so they can scale up. So EG11 it is.
