Love mine. Loaded was at 2k. 5" govt slide, bull barrel, full picatinny dust cover, flat 2.5lb trigger, very agressive prickle grip texture all in FDE with black backfill. And... the cheapest mags in a ds 1911. The gun was a bargain for what you get in comparison. The website and level of customization is second to none. Best ordering experience to date. The gun is a winner and the company absolutely delivers. Good job Stealth Arms.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

This one just turned out really good. And the design of it hit the nail on the head

[@Swampytheroot]

Looking at it, the grip angle seems a bit past the 1911 angle which is optimized to avoid wrist strain. I think it's 17°. That looks to be just enough more an angle (20°?) to actually cause a slight pinch in the wrist. I would guess it would have to be a bit more angular to use the Glock mags which don't emulate the 1911 feed angle. That's an issue for folks with hand nerve issues as it crimps the nerve bundle at the wrist. Nice presentation. Sitting here now with a Sig 1911 and a Glock 41 observing what's comfortable and what numbs my hand, it's only maybe 5 or 6° of angle. With the 1911 my wrist is pretty much straight; the angle is in the way the hand grips it. With the 41, the wrist has to turn down significantly to put sights on target. That angle in the wrist compresses nerves and makes it difficult to use for a range session with numbness and loss of sensation and strength

[@iBlackForce_NRG]

It’s a 1911 grip angle

[@MoH_Dank]

They claim it is a 1911 grip angle but they also don't know how to measure angles properly. It's visibly a wider angle and the pics on there website shows they're not measuring from the right points

Question: I'm likely going to be getting one of these in a 5" with a bull barrel (I really like bull barrels), do you know of a compensator with a couple of large top ports that will fit a threaded bull barrel, it's not like a standard threaded barrel, it has a ledge at the bottom of the threads that doesn't allow the compensator to extend below the threads.

Decisions decisions

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Ahahah well that builder will occupy you for hours

[@soonerfrac4611]

So my real question is would you consider it as your duty gun (possibly the Commander size for CCW) or just a range toy? I’m considering a Prodigy Commander but the sheer amount of options available for this thing is *insane!* And new calibers are set to be added so hopefully they do a 10mm using G20 mags. Side note, they also have a similar gun builder set up for their standard 1911’s. Believe optional calibers are 9, 38 Super, 10mm, & 45. Only big difference I’ve seen is that the 1911 doesn’t have as many color combinations: pick a color and the whole gun is gonna be that shade.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

I think for how it runs its a valid duty carry

[@paulh6101]

The updates are now live on the website, Presidents Day. Had to grab one, the updated grip texture is only upgrade this pistol needs. However i also went with bull barrel for sexy factor. Didnt want to pay one hundred bucks for custom serial number though. This pistol was a straight up laser beam when I rented one.

I will be buying one once they shot show updates are live on their website. I really want to see stealth arms succeed here and set a new standard for the service provided at this price point. It's no knock on staccato, but if stealth arms can make this at this price point, and make it customizable like this, staccato has no excuse to charge what they charge.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

I don't get the why people are so enamored with Staccato. Maybe I am not because I remember how crappy their guns were when they were still sti.

[@dekuthedog]

@@TacticalConsiderations I have a staccato. It's been incredibly reliable and shoots great. But I wouldn't say I love it. I hate how expensive the mags are and I hate I had to send it off to get stippled because they don't offer their x-tac grip for the C2. That said, staccato reliability is well know at this point with many police agencies using them. Stealth arms changes the game though because if it can be as reliable or better, using glock mags, and being customizable at this price point, there's no reason to buy staccato.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

They definitely work better now for sure. But man I saw so many STI's fail which is why I still to this day don't won a staccato, bad memories.

I have a platypus and my biggest regret is choosing the Trident slide style that you see here in this video.

Other than that, the gun is great and really fun to shoot. wish they did have a non function grip safety option that'll sit flush but its not a big deal.

Received my Platypus and overall think it’s pretty sweet. Unfortunately, the ambi safety pinches my right (dominant) hand if I disengage with a full grip. Actually drew blood while I was trying to find a work around. Yes, I could just get a single sided safety, I’m an ambi fanboy.

For me to get a DS 1911 or 2011 a bull barrel is a have to cuz I feel like a bull barrel is what helps make a 2011 shoot great.

[@chrisferguson1911]

It's coming. They had one at Shot Show.👍

[@TacticalConsiderations]

90 days out.

[@AngrySargeG01]

This is a pretty cool variant and one I’ve been waiting on. I can’t wait to see the head to head with the oracle arms. Gonna be a video we all needed that we didn’t know we needed.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Thanks for watching.

[@JCarruth130]

Just curious, haven't seen anyone talk about the internals. I'm assuming at this price point it is like the Prodigy and all MIM parts?

[@TacticalConsiderations]

I don't have the full list of parts that are machines or not. MIM if done right wont make any difference.

[@JCarruth130]

@@TacticalConsiderations For sure...was just curious as I know it plays more of a factor after high round counts...or atleast so they say. Did it come with a 1 piece guide rod? I had to get the Dawson one for my prodigy. I hate having to remember loosening that allen screw!

I believe it says on the website everything is milled in house!

[@tamisthewizard3199]

I really like mine, it's at the gunsmith rn getting a new recoil spring and a compensator

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Awesome

[@djr017]

Which comp are you getting? Looking at comping mine too.

[@tamisthewizard3199]

@@djr017 I got a zrts 1911 comp. The muzzle flip was so minimal when it worked

[@TacticalConsiderations]

a comped version will be sick.

Waiting for the new grip and bull barrel this month

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Thanks for watching.

[@a1ejandr0garza23]

Could u use any other mags on the platypus than Glock mags ? Like does it take staccato mags or something

[@TacticalConsiderations]

No this version is glock mags only.

[@stravvensnest3817]

im curious if they are working with companys to add a comp and other items.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Lets hope.

[@stravvensnest3817]

@@TacticalConsiderations i noticed from a short that the Glock 17 or 19 was able to cycle rounds from a sig mag if you held the mag in. can the platapus do the same and if sig worked what other mags would work. just a thought I had

[@Brandon-ob8ul]

What is the deal with companies not putting front serrations on tri tops. Springfield Emissary is the same way and its so annoying.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

thanks for watching.

[@ThomasSimmons-j9l]

Just a plain jane model with the full dust cover will do it for me. 😊

[@TacticalConsiderations]

Deal!

[@Newdle98]

Now we need you to review the one in 45 that takes G21 mags that they’re releasing this month.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

I do have a lot of G21 mags.

[@Newdle98]

@@TacticalConsiderations I love my G45 and G21. But something about a double stack 45 platypus seems a little too right. I have more 17 than 21 mags but I would love either one. Keep up the good work man this is an amazing channel.

The calming music gets me Randy 🤣

I bet.

Yes.

Can you please tell me which mag extension you are running in the video, thanks!

factr usa and tryant cnc

[@seanmtak7573]

Gorgeous. What colors are those? I really want one or 5 I’ve made over 50 designs on their site I think.

[@TacticalConsiderations]

sniper grey and black.

[@seanmtak7573]

Wow it looks great thank you! I’ll check out the sniper grey. I was using smoke, Springfield grey, concrete, and sig dark grey with Barrett bronze on the configurator and another one with some tans also. I had like 40-50 configured on their site 😂. Just trying to find some online references to the cerakote finishes. I’m not always huge on contrasting frames and slides but it can look great and it would be hard not to with all the cerakote options.
