I added it, but I can't remember who makes it. Surprisingly it does have great traction on it for being so small as stated by Sarge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry my question was not clear, I assume the MPA stock mag release is threaded for the addition of the Brazos button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just received mine a few weeks ago, its one awesome pistol. Like any other firearm, they all need to be tuned a bit more. After having my competitive friend who happens to be also a gunsmith. He tuned the action a bit more, also tuned the trigger and a few other things. From factory, it's a great pistol. However, it could always be a lot better... But overall, she's awesome! For the money, it can't be beat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglee25 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Awesome. When you say 'tune' what have you done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In December I was told that parts were 2-3 weeks out. 22 weeks after the order, they still say that they are having problems with parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestPat Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 THIS IS MY FIRST NEW “custom” pistol. All tolerances are super tight, and I am interested to see what it settles out to once I get up past 1000 rounds. My SN is over 1000. I will say that the fit finish and feel is so much better than any other pistol in that price range. My FFL carries an 8’ case of 2K-4K pistols and the DS9 was the best overall. I hope they have success going forward, and that they set a new precedent for the quality you should get at that price point. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David I think they will be discovered fairly soon and their price will climb to the 4-5k level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jhorizon1 Posted March 16, 2023 Share Posted March 16, 2023 Can any ds9 hybrid owners give me some details on the optics cut? Breechface to the center of the fwd most hole and center of firing pin hole to top of the optics cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaddHatter Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Just wanted to see if someone already had one or the other on their ds9 to make sure there wasn't issues before I ordered one for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Any questions about MPA products - just call them. They are easy to talk to.

I am on the fence between a Ds9 or possibly spending 2x the $$ on an Atlas. I would rather spend $6k on an Atlas then to drop $3500 on a pistol I am not completely happy with. That said I have a MPA rifle that I am very satisfied with, so I do have a high degree of faith in the company/products. I did see what I believe to be newer images on MPA’s Facebook page that appear to show improved blending and fitting on recent production pistols. Does anyone know how the trigger play is on these pistols in regard to vertical/horizontal play. I will get an Atlas, while the DS9 Hybrid is a nice firearm the Atlas is better built! But that's just me. MPA does make some nice firearms priced nice but remember that you get what you paid for~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a nitro fin on my DS9, took a little bit of fitting but Nathan at SSI was able to let me know what to file to fit. DS9 frames have a little bit different cut than a normal 2011 so takes a little extra filing, mine has worked great now that I got it fit and installed. Its the same fitting he shows on the website for the Staccato. Edited March 28, 2023 by jrloman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not much difference. They are not the same and there’s a big difference between the two. As a builder who has handled both guns the MPA is not in the same league.
