TacticalHillBilly Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Hello I am new here! I have a 2011 that I built with a Atlas Slide, Rouge Tactical frame and Fusion parts. The other day I had this Millennium Custom 2011 come in and I couldn’t let it go! I don’t know anything about the maker but I have been reading old posts on here. Anyone have one like this? Is this a specific model? Any info would be appreciated Thanks Ed Edited March 2, 2021 by TacticalHillBilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSAF61 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 That is one of Derek's Steel Challenge models. His major PF guns usually will not have cuts all the way through the slide. Derek build a very good gun. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulm540 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 My brother had his limited gun. It ran like a raped ape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjb45 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) I have had dinner and lunch with Derek a few times. I found him to be a stand up guy. HIs stuff works and is reliable. Bedell/Brazos/MC/EG are all high quality smiths. Edited March 5, 2021 by pjb45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalHillBilly Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 I know nothing about competition shooting. I spent the last few years at a gun shop customizing Glocks and playing with machine guns. I built a 2011 last year for my suppressor and I’m in the process of building a 6” bull barrel 2011. I was wanting to get a Staccato P but this MC fell into my lap and it was too pretty to pass up. I had never heard of the maker and info is super limited. You can read thousands of posts on STI/Staccato and many other makers. I sent a picture to a friend that’s a 2011 competition guy (a member of this forum) and he said he has one built by Derek and it was a quality gun so I bought it.

Yes he did. I owned a few of his originals, and actually had him tune a few open pistols that I had many thousands into (S_I)...and should have been fully tweaked from the company, but he just worked his magic and shipped them back to me after a dismal Nationals showing. Stand up guy, stand up work. I actually look for his work here if they pop up for sale.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Gene Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I have a 6", 40S&W. Probably one of the last ones out of his shop when he was going hot and heavy. Super nice gun. I really need to sell mine as I am no longer shooting competitive pistol stuff. I could spend the money on a new shotgun! Anyway, they are a great pistol and you should have no regrets for picking it up. Several top shooters used them both here in the US and in Europe. Enjoy it! wg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 If that is a 40sw I'd be very leery of shooting major in it. You risk cracking the slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I’m really curious as to why he isn’t building much if any now. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
