Staccato look alike
MSRP $1500

Springfield Armory has a promo/raffle on Sep3. Sign up at their website. You’ll get a unique number combo to open the safe. If it opens the safe, the package is yours. Includes the vault, belt, holster, light, and pistol. No affiliation.

Going to Mcbrides this Saturday to try my luck. Going to pick up an HKP30SK anyway, might as well.

Good luck, hope you win big.

Nice, but not sure how it is much different than the XDM Competition Series I have...

Looks like a plastic frame (seams on front strap) and there’s somethings not quite right on the (proprietary) U-shaped, single screw gripzone. Kind of looks like closed cell foam on a mockup, really.

I’m wondering where this sits on the scale from mockup to production final gun.

XDM- striker fired .45acp
Prodigy- 1911 single-action-only in 9mm.

Looks to be a 2011 design (2 piece frame) instead of 1911 (one piece with grip panels). A Staccato clone.

Maybe 3D printed mockup of the final?

AT $1500 MSRP I'm sure it'll draw folks in, but the SA35 has had some bugs they're working out - I wonder how reliable this 2011 is going to be? Are they going to use the same mags as Staccato, or a proprietary Springfield design?

As it's only 9mm (didn't know that!), if anything, I'd get a SA-35...

seeing on some other sites that they believe it will run some sort of SA proprietary magazine, which is kind of a bummer. Would have been nice to have Staccato compatability

Not to mention, if Springfield mags are cheaper, as reliable, and compatable - it'd be a boon for Staccato owners likewise.

The more I look at the photos, the more I agree. If they’re going for a race gun competitor, this sure is a strange way to get there. At least it appears the slide is cut for optics and the tall sights are in the optics plate that gets removed for the red dot.

Im excited

 

[jmohme]

Oh good. Yet another knock off 19/2011.

Choice is always a good thing, but geez, how many different makers of the same thing are there?

 

[Ibock]

Not a bunch of double stack 1911 9mm out there

Actually there are a few, most being in the upper price range but Rock Island makes one. I have the Wilson Combat Experior compact X9 double stack. I can't figure I would be interested in the SA 2011. Saw the add the other day that Nighthawk has one now as well.

Not seeing any old salts getting in on this one.
So, here goes….
They need to remove the 19 part of the model
As it does a disservice to 1911s.
$1500? My SAI 1911A1 National Match that went through the custom shop at SAI was $1500 10 years ago. That my friends is a 1911.
Here’s a pic. Nothing against a pseudo 1911 in
9mm. I’ve got a Colt Combat Commander single stack in 9mm.
But that should be strictly A 2011…..
Thanks for listening to a old man bitch! Ha!
Or just pointing out the obvious…

and I'm assuming an M1A is in the cradle above the Springfield?

I’m shamelessly stealing someone else’s description. A double stack 1911 is just a fat 1911 a la Para Ordnance. A 2011 is a modular gun; the grip and frame rails are separate pieces a la STI’s design patent.

 

[Riksors]

It seems like the sti patent expired.

I believe SA had their mags made by duramag or mec-gar for this platform. A gun store employee tried to fit his staccato mag but has not run it yet.

I never got a 2011 and this price point sounds promising. Double stack 1911, 17+1 of 9mm, with a great trigger, optic ready? I feel like this is a great deal. I wish they released this in 45acp or 10mm though, my only small complaint.
