Century Arms Experience/Satisfaction with Rival Issues
chowellacsbd replied to hermes_actual's topic in Canik
My rival darkside has been flawless and is one of my most reliable and most accurate striker fired guns I’ve owned. No issues at all. -
How do you know atlas doesn’t hand fit their guns? For $6k they better be hand fit.

Haven’t used them but Mod 1 Firearms will do it and have it back to you with cerakote in less than a week. I’ve had multiple guns done by Pike.

Thanks! It's simpy a govt slide chopped down to 4.25 to run on a standard full size frame instead of a dedicated commander length frame. -

Need Insight on New 2011 9mm Minor Build

So a 4.5 / 4.6 build is not going to happen mainly due to nobody having the parts (slide/barrel) to work with. So it's either a slide mounted RDS in commander or govt, or a dedicated racer (frame mounted). Whats the word enos-verse... -

@zzt So, accordig to Atlas, their Commander slides are cut down govt slides so they retain the full govt stroke, not the shorter commander stroke. Does this at all make a difference to what you were saying previously? -

I think that sums it up then Thanks for all that info, much appreciated. Thanks to everyone who added as well. Lots of great minds on this forum that've helped every time I've had a question. -

Update: Spoke to Atlas 4.6in KKM barrels are pretty impossible to find right now due to supply chain issues. They dont recommend cutting 5in bull to 4.6. 4.6 precut slides with atlas rds cut are out of stock. not sure when more will available. So, the question now is, 5in or 4.25 commander...? -

More importanly though, whats everyones thoughts on frame-mounted versus slide mounted? Most likely be running an RMR (1 or 3.5 moa). Cheely tacrail as well. -

Thats what I was thinking too. Downside to that is Im left with an Open-only gun, versus having a sight system I can swap back to irons if I needed. -

For a 4.6 build, I'd be cutting down a 5in bull correct? Commander or Govt recoil spring? -
I'm having another gun built and would like insight on the following two (mockups) ideas. A few things to note: Only for local steel matches, no USPSA, IPSC 2011 only as I have plenty of mags and enjoy the weight of the gun Shooting factory (minor pf) rounds only Using SS cheely grip Using atlas slide for either style (open/atlas optic system) 5in govt slide w/kkm bull barrel NO comp as my limited gun using the same parts barely moves during recoil DLC for final finish Any and all thoughts or recommendations are much appreciated. First option is a 5in atlas slide milled for their optic plate system, tritopped, and panel cuts Second option is a 5in atlas slide with rear swoop cut, panel cuts and atlas frame mount for RDS
