The OP said he bought a Titan RDS. That's the v2 gen pistols, and they all come with the Atlas grip.

We had two BULs—an SAS II Standard and a UR Shorty for Open. The Standard is the same as your Saw but without the “saw” design on the slide. Ran them for a season and had very good luck with both. Only thing is their proprietary mags. Worked great but capacity is lower than regular 2011 mags. I’m B class so wasn’t a huge issue. Was impressed with guns overall.

It's a gun I'm considering buying and I can not see it in person. I messaged the seller and am waiting to hear back.

Thank you gentlemen for the guidance. This is helpful.

Thank you. That info is quite helpful. I just read that article this morning and that's what got me thinking about 9x21.

I've found a company that makes it (Underwood), it is expensive though. I've been searching and calling to see if I could get a 9mm barrel fit to it and haven't had luck yet. I have a question--the 356TSW is a 9x21.5mm round. Winchester (and several others) commercially make 9x21 ammo that is much more reasonably priced. Hypothetically, do you think there would be a safety issue in shooting 9x21 out of a 9x21.5 barrel?

I want to buy it because of a combination of the gun's looks, my curiosity in wanting to shoot it, and it is a specific type of gun that I like outside of uspsa/steel--the S&W 3rd generation autos. Also, thank you for the input on whether it's normal wear or not. I can't tell either.

I'm considering buying this gun. I would like input on if the markings I circled are outside of normal wear or not. I'm told the gun has 1300 rounds through it. The 356TSW caliber is approximately similar to 9 major. The gun is a S&W 3566. Thank you--Iliana

thanks, this gives me a good starting point for what to expect with the Lockwood. We don't reload, so it'll probably be the usual game of finding a factory load or two that the gun likes.

Yes, I'm very pleased with it, thank you. My friend recommended to not go all the way up the backstrap with the silicone carbide so as to make it easier to shift my grip when hitting the mag release for reloads and I'm glad I took his recommendation.

Okay thank you--that's encouraging. My friend did a grip job on my TXG that is silicone carbide, has the top shelf on the left shaved off, and has a baby palm swell and it feels incredible. I think it's similar to the Alma Cole grip so I bet you're going to love yours!

Great looking guns! I'm interested in what your comparison yields. I bought a Lockwood top recently and sent the gun to TSA for a trigger job. Someone told me that the Lockwood tops like higher pf loads. I'm hoping to shoot regular 130pf factory stuff. Ranger, what pf do you run in your Lockwood?

That's a bummer. I have a P10f Optics Ready that I got for CO for myself and (not to make you more frustrated, but) I literally shot 1" groups at 25yds off a rest with Freedom Munitions 124gr and 147gr. I was pleasantly surprised at how it shoots. I shot a G45 for awhile and love it and bought a P10f because it was cheap and looked cool and it would be another CO gun. I know the Competition Ready version is slightly different but that sounds like there is something not to spec, and not just some poor mechanical accuracy.

My 9yr old son and 10 yr old daughter have been shooting steel challenge with me for a year now at different clubs here in Michigan so I'd bet your son is good to go.

oh that's a really interesting gun--a 1911-style that uses glock mags. I hadn't heard of Stealth Arms before.
