NYMac74 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 What are the decent steel frame double stacks out there in the 3 to 5k range appropriate for Limited shooting? I love my 1911s but have yet to find a double stack. I've handled a couple SVI Infinitys and see listings for Atlas, but really have no idea what's good. Also I prefer grips with a narrower profile which I know is difficult in double stack. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwilmot Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Prob the best gun for the money. if your shooting limited you’ll want a .40 for major scoring. https://masterpiecearms.com/shop/mpa-ds40-tt-comp-pistol/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakerjd Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 D2 Customs can build you one. MPA are nice from what I've heard. Brazos semi Customs guns are really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bwilmot Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Don’t forget carne customs , akai customs guns ,and atlas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Personally, I would not go with Masterpiece Arms. If first quality semi custom is where you want to be, the Brazos first https://www.brazoscustom.com/sc-limited and Warwick tactical second https://warwicktactical.com/products/outlaw-limited. Both have smaller than normal poly grips. The Warwick is smaller and more aggressively textured. Both are essentially full custom quality guns that you cannot alter the looks of. I have Brazos stuff and swear by it. My buddy bought a Warwick Limited and it is superb. Atlas is way overpriced. Akai charges too much for what you get, IMO, but they are great guns. If you are looking for something custom in the looks department, start with a Brazos short block with Unique slide. Then you can send it off to whoever does the custom engraving you like.

Kilrb Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Can't beat Brazos, I have one of his builds and it just runs and is dependable as well as affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlantic Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Another vote for Brazos. Have two if his short block kits. Both great, 9 and .40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
