Alpha Foxtrot Romulus 4.25” w/ Integrated Comp
My new pick up, I’ve got a few attachments s added to it already and i have a few performance upgrades coming in too-
Currently sporting:
• OSIGHT X multi reticle
• OLIGHT Baldr Pro/RL
Performance Mods: [Ordered but not installed yet confirming fitment]
• EGW 1911/2011 Ignition kit (opted to keep the stock trigger for now currently firing at sub 3Lbs trigger weight)
EGW set up:
- Carbon Steel Lightened Hammer
- Hard Sear
- HD Ball Head Long Disconnector
- 17Lbs ISMI 1911 Mainspring
- Lightened Leaf Spring
• DSC Spin-On Brick System
- DLC (BLACK) Single Port Comp Brick
THOUGHTS:
- Fires VERY flat, Recoil is very manageable and very easy to get back on target for a follow through
- The comp has a V port in the very front which does help however I am considering more ports to make an even flatter shot (this however might effect cycling and may require extra tuning)
- The gun itself has great balance overall for the size of it very comfortable grip however I plan on switching to an aluminum grip by Miller Precision
- The slide is incredibly light, not the lightest but the spring upgrade should make an improvement overall for a budget 2011 it has very high performance
- Fitment and Finish are great no wobble points however i’d recommend an upgrade for the ambidextrous thumb safety as it can mechanically lock if the hammer is cocked back when upper is being taken apart as its very tight fitment in the lower
HELP:
- I’m looking for customization options( Grip bushings; Flared Mag Well; Porting suggestions)
Open to recommendations for places to buy from, haven’t found many options for the AF1911 but to my understanding certain products for Springfield Prodigy’s and Staccato’s have good fitment with minor adjustments so send recommendations
