Of course!Don't forget a pics and range report in 8 weeks!
Honestly, I didn't open this thread until now because of platypus being in the title, but then someone mentioned the gun and it being at NRAAM in another thread. If I'd seen this before I went to NRAAM I might have had to check them out. I happened to check out a Prodigy at the conference and thought that felt good enough that I just stayed away from the Stacatto booth as those have to be even better otherwise I might be sleeping on the couch.I'm afraid I have no meaningful contributuon - but did anybody else open this thread simply because it said platypus and they were curious?
They designed the gun around the magazine..They claim it's a 1911 grip angle and it feels like one to me but I don't know how they worked that out
Hate to say it but yes it has gone up it now says 8-10 weeks. One is for sure in my future as wellThey designed the gun around the magazine..
I have a distinct feeling a Platypus is in my future.. Hope the lead time hasn't gotten too long since the convention.
I agree. I also checked out the Stealth Arms over the weekend. I also messed around with the Staccato line. Wow. Big difference to me. I will wait until I can afford the Staccato.Sage advice: Don't be a beta-tester.
That said - since the Prodigy is, unsurprisingly, a turd (so far)... I do welcome other less expensive producers of the 2011 platform.
But if a $1700 gun is going to require $2-500 in potential work from a 'smith to get it to work correctly, ala Prodigy, then may as well just go ahead and buy a Staccato.
If I'm to invest one day, optics ready and w/ a threaded barrel is a must. Wet work and all that.
I'm going to second that. Lol maybe now they have the dagger, they can make the swordI need palmetto state to make a 2011 so I can afford one lol
What is better with the Staccato then the Stealth?I agree. I also checked out the Stealth Arms over the weekend. I also messed around with the Staccato line. Wow. Big difference to me. I will wait until I can afford the Staccato.
I handled one last week at a local dealer that was in for transfer.. Felt just as good as the guns I handled at the convention.So classic firearms just put them in the day three part one video. The lead time is probably gonna jump. I have shot Staccato and the prodigy and they are both nice but when I handled this at the convention it felt just as smooth as both in my opinion. It may have just been the fact that the gun was a display and was smoothed out by all the racking and was probably one of there better pieces. But also it's still almost half the price of the Staccato. Just my two cents.
Thats good cause the two I handled at the convention where smooth as glass and they where very nice.I handled one last week at a local dealer that was in for transfer.. Felt just as good as the guns I handled at the convention.
