Masterpiece arms are very nice, IMHO much nicer than Staccato...

You may already know this, but check out Modern Warriors in Utah- they are the #1 Wilson dealer, and always have a lot of them in stock ready to ship. They also constantly offer sales- was able to get my EDC X9 from them for 15% off, and was shipped out same day, really good service. Also, because I am a lefty, it really limited my options. When I contacted them it was right when all the crap was really hitting the fan with 114, and so i didnt want to wait and miss out, however at the time they did not have a model with the specific features I wanted showing in stock on their website. I contacted them, and ended up corresponding with their primary guy who is their main buyer for Wilson. He was able to show me not only what they had in stock, but what was COMING- what they had on order from Wilson, and what was in the pipeline to arrive, including estimated timeline for their arrival. Meaning able to see 'behind the curtain' as to what would be coming in stock. He was VERY helpful, and was able to get what i wanted options wise with the EDCX9, which might have sold out if I hadnt done that. Cant recommend them enough.^ I'm a Wilson fan. If I could order one without the fear of ip114 coming back to haunt, I'd totally do it.

I hate me too- ;-) now that i have the EDC X9, i now want the SFX. My 'problem' is the ambi safety- for some reason Wilson continues to only put them on as an option for a very limited number of guns they build, so it really hinders me. However if you dont have that problem like me of being raised by witches, then there are many in stock right now, and more roll in every week. I REALLy want a SFX with the 3" barrel, light rail, optic cut. They have one in stock right now, with all the features I want, except no ambi safety. I know it can be added but I hate shipping guns/worry about it getting lost/stolen, and then being without the guns for months.I hate you.

Not to make things worse for you- but they are currently offering a $750 gift card promotion- buy a Wilson over $3k, and you get a $750 gift card to anything on their site. So basically you could buy a Wilson, get a 'free' $750 pistol with it, of your choice. ;-)

EXACTLY! Funny you say that- after I bought my EDC X9 from them back about 4-5 months ago, same as you I started ordering mags, as I like to keep a minimum of 10 for each gun. For 2011s that sucks money wise ;-) . I actually needed to order something straight from Wilson, and so placed an order for the parts as well as some EDC X9 mags. At the time, Wilson refused to ship the mags!!! Stating that they couldnt as it was against the law now for Oregon. I tried to educate them, but at the time they wouldn't do it. That may have changed now. I found it funny that i was telling them that I had just received the gun and mags from their #1 dealer, but they were still saying they couldnt do it. So of course I just went and placed an order for the extra mags with Moderns Warriors, and they shipped out right away, no questions asked. Nice thing about the EDC X9 mags is that they are the same as the SFX line, so if you decide like me to eventually get another one, it is the same mags.I was looking at $750 worth of 18 round magazines
Only ten each? Weak.EXACTLY! Funny you say that- after I bought my EDC X9 from them back about 4-5 months ago, same as you I started ordering mags, as I like to keep a minimum of 10 for each gun.

That is actually one of the reasons I bought a Staccato C2 rather than the new CS, as it takes the new 'slimmer' mags, and I already had a pretty good stock of regular Staccato/2011 mags. Oh i guess that would be another plus for Staccato/2011 style guns, is that guns like Atlas/Staccato all take the same/similar pattern mags . . .
Freaking 2011s- going to make me homeless. But I will be homeless with some kick bubblegum pistols!! ;-)
i see someone has been spending time rummaging through Modern Warriors listings . . . ;-). Experior line is great if you want to keep the traditional 1911 upper, but go double stack. Should fit in any 1911 holsters you currently have. For me unless it is going to be purely a range piece or collectors item, I have to have a light rail, as any gun I have that may be used in home/self defense has a light on it. And then no red dot cut, which for some that may not matter. For me I wouldn't buy that one as mentioned because like many Wilsons it doesnt come with an ambi safety ;-(. In other words, it isnt for me, but TOTALLY for you ! ;-)WILSON COMBAT EXPERIOR DBL STACK (9MM) 5' BRL BLACK SLIDE/BLACK FRAME NON-LIGHT RAIL FRAME

Buy this so I don't have to.
Lol. I think I don't need it purely on having a bunch of standard capacity Langdon Tactical Beretta 92s and like 40 magazines. I may need an Alchemy Prime Elite if it comes up though.i see someone has been spending time rummaging through Modern Warriors listings . . . ;-).

How much is "a bunch" of Langdon Berettas exactly??Lol. I think I don't need it purely on having a bunch of standard capacity Langdon Tactical Beretta 92s and like 40 magazines. I may need an Alchemy Prime Elite if it comes up though.
LTT Elite Full Size & Compact, M9a4 with Langdon Trigger job and a 92x Performance. The compact is my alternate carry gun to the Wilson CQB Compact in Turnbull blue.How much is "a bunch" of Langdon Berettas exactly??
I have one- Langdon Beretta 92 elite with all the options- np3, optic cut, trigger job. It is BY FAR my favorite trigger, and probably one of my favorite handguns out of all of my collection, which includes the Wilson, multiple Legions, Staccato XC etc- the Langdon Beretta really is that good! I would take it over any of the lower tier 2011 options being talked about on this thread. Yes different trigger in DA/SA vs 1911 SA, but man the reset on it is just amazing and so smooth. Langdon knows what he is doing with those triggers, and for $1799 or less, really an incredible value. . .
Awesome! Oh man i bet that Wilson looks great- I have seen photos of that finish, and it just looks incredible! I think they also offer a case hardened version, saw some pics on their site where they had the blued upper with case hardened lower. Man jealous of that one!LTT Elite Full Size & Compact, M9a4 with Langdon Trigger job and a 92x Performance. The compact is my alternate carry gun to the Wilson CQB Compact in Turnbull blue.
I had the full size out yesterday, and oh boy, even the DA trigger is fantastic.
