Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Compact double-stack 1911s have gotten popular fast, and the Alpha Foxtrot AF1911 Attila is one of the more thoughtful takes on the idea. Instead of hanging a comp off the muzzle, Alpha Foxtrot machined it right into the 3.5 inch bull ramped barrel so it sits flush with the front of the dustcover. You get real muzzle flip reduction without adding length, which matters a lot on a short-barreled 9mm. The frame is lightweight aluminum with an extended beavertail, rounded mainspring housing, and a Picatinny rail up front for a light, and the whole gun wears a DLC black finish that holds up to sweat and holster wear far better than traditional bluing.
Here is the clever part. The Attila feeds from Shield Arms S15 style magazines, the metal-bodied double-stack mags built for Glock 43X and 48 pattern pistols. That keeps the grip slim enough to conceal while still giving you a hammer-fired single action trigger, and spare mags are easy to find. This configuration ships with one 10-round magazine for a 10+1 capacity, and the flat-faced skeletonized trigger breaks at roughly 4 pounds, right where a working 1911 trigger should be. Controls are fully ambidextrous, and the traditional grip safety and thumb safety are both here, just like John Browning intended.
The SUS416 stainless slide gets deep front and rear serrations plus anti-glare cuts along the top, and it comes cut for optics with an RMR footprint plate in the box. The rear sight is machined into the plate itself, so you keep a usable sight picture whether you mount a dot or run irons, and the front post carries a tritium insert for low light. For anyone who has wanted 1911 ergonomics and trigger feel in a pistol sized for everyday carry, the Attila makes a strong case without asking you to give up modern features to get there.
The Attila is built around Shield Arms S15 style magazines, the metal-bodied double-stack mags designed for Glock 43X and 48 pattern pistols. This model ships with one 10-round magazine, and higher capacity S15 mags will run in it as well. It keeps the grip slim for carry and makes spare magazines easy to track down.
The slide uses an adapter plate system and includes an RMR footprint plate in the box, with plates for other footprints like RMSc available from Alpha Foxtrot. A nice touch is that the rear sight is machined into the plate itself, so you keep backup irons whether or not you have a dot mounted.
No, and that is one of the best design choices on this gun. The compensator is machined into the 3.5 inch bull barrel and sits flush with the front of the dustcover, so the overall footprint stays the same as a non-comped pistol of this size. You get reduced muzzle flip without a bulkier holster setup.
In all the ways that matter, yes. It is a single action, hammer-fired pistol with a grip safety and a manual thumb safety, and the thumb safety is fully ambidextrous. The main departure from tradition is the double-stack Glock-pattern magazine, which trades the single-stack mag for more capacity in a slimmer grip than most 2011-style guns.
