    Stealth Arms Platypus

    Will the roster go away please so I can order a Stealth Arms Platypus? A Hi-Cap 1911 that accepts Glock Mags... It's fascinating, I wants to try it.

        The all black one looks just fine, the others are truly hideous. I'd be in for one. Could have a great trio with a G17 and a PC Carbine all using same mags.

              You can make them look better.

              Try:

              Style: Tactical
              Trigger Guard: Square
              Size: Government
              Dust Cover: Full Length/Extended
              Side Grip: Chainlink
              Slide Style: Trident
              Trigger Hole: Skeleton
              Barrel: Standard
              Mag Funnel: Funnel

              Frame color: H341
              Barrel: Raw Steel

              It looks damn good that way. I'll have to see what the reviews are like. If the reviews are excellent, I might have to figure out a way to get one.

                The samples I saw at SHOT were very good. Great trigger and slide to frame fit. Also, since it's without grip panels, the grip is very slim. It doesn't feel much wider, if at all, than a standard 1911 grip. At the price its being offered, I'd take one of these over the Springfield Prodigy.

                  If Ms. Glock and Mr. Colt had a baby...
                  The grip angle is the thing I dislike about the Glock, so this would be a no-go for me.

                    It's a 1911 grip angle.

                      So does this mean that if you owned Freedom Week G17 17 round mags you'd have a double stack 1911 that holds 17 + 1 rounds? Albeit with a thick, non 1911 grip but a 1911 grip angle?

                        Wouldn’t that give feed problems from the Glock magazines?

                              It's only a few degrees off. There's plenty of room in the grip to accomodate the difference so the feed lips are level.
