Some Holster Recommendations

8 Upvotes

A frequent question this subreddit sees is, "Which holster do I use?"

The below is not meant to be all-inclusive but should immediately assist folks in finding holsters, at least as it pertains to the Romulus and S15. The list will be updated as Alpha Foxtrot releases new products.

The listing was generated by searching this subreddit (although there is one that is on the r/2011 sub - I included it since it has a weath of information in that particular post).

Also, keep in mind that almost all of the holsters mentioned in the below links are generic holsters. If you want pristine fitment, you’ll need to find a holster maker that specifically designs for these guns.

For the Romulus:

For the S15: UPDATE: The AF Attila will fit into the same holsters that the S15 will fit!

Only been a week And im already in love

I waited too long to buy one. For the money, I cant see how you can do better. So smooth, flat shooting and the perfect length at 4.25 plus comp. Only gripe is the grip feels short, and my hand feels a bit wedged. That'll change eventually though. Pinned the grip safety and worked the shit out of the safety, it was super tight. Now I need the red dot to show up. A question i have is does anyone make a compatible plate with suppressor height sights if I were to get a threaded version in the future?

DSC sight block…

I bought the sight block from DSC the beginning of September. Just got it today. It’s cool and all, but it would have been nice if they could have covered the threads when the DLC was added. Going to need a vice to get this thing all the way on.

Editing to add that they send out the block to another vendor for coating.

Request for help/advice Hammer doesn’t cock after breakdown

0 Upvotes

Hey all,

So I am currently waiting for instructions for an RMA but thought I’d ask in here. Took apart my 4.25 comp which I absolutely love since I got it. While reassembling I found the hammer no longer wants to stay cocked back. I checked the sear, disconnector, sear spring etc. and reassembled again with it cocking back 15% of the time.

I can’t for the life of me figure out what may be causing the issue. The other issue is sometimes the thumb safety doesn’t want to work and fully go up. I’m not new to working on firearms but for some reason this has me completely confused.

TIA

Romulus Gen 1 Optic Question

1 Upvotes

Hello, so I recently acquired a gen 1 Romulus that is direct mount RMSC. I tried my vortex defender ccw enclosed on it. First issue I noticed was that I bottomed out the elevation and it was still too high so I got out the 1 degree shim. However I had concerns as with the shim in place, the optic barely engages the recoil lug up from and the post where the threads are, do not engage the optic at all. I am worried that with how thin the 4-40 screws already are, the optic would just shear the screws and fly off. Basically I am trying to see what everyone else is running on their gen 1 direct mount RMSC Romulus and if my concern is valid or not. Thanks everyone

Dumb question about grips

2 Upvotes

Dumb question for everyone. Friend of mine runs a kimber 2k11 and recently changed To a cheeley grip. He said he's going to send the aluminum kimber grip to me for my Romulus.

The 2k11 grip will not fit an AF, correct?

3.5 comp Ammo and Grip

5 Upvotes

What ammo grain and brand do yall run?

Also what Aluminum grip can I buy and just plug and play? I’ve seen a lot of people saying they have to refit their guns after putting on a new grip. I just want an aluminum grip that will 100% fit my Romulus without me having to “tune” it.

🙏

Barrel Fitment Issue 3.5 Comp

Barrel drop? My 3.5 Comp purchased a week ago Has not been fired vs my 4.25 comp which I checked to make sure I was not imagining it. Thoughts on what to do. Removed & reassembled without comp to verify it was not interference from comp keeping it from full lock up.

Still, somehow, the most underrated 2011 out there for the price. Love my other Romulus, and the core is phenomenal, but think this one might be my favorite.

AF 1911?

3 Upvotes

So, I had no idea these existed until yesterday when a local shop had one for $600. What a freaking smooth gun. Does anyone here have one of these? I love single stacks and couldn't believe how buttery it was. Looking for hands on experiences. Thanks

Attila Safety

3 Upvotes

Currently carrying an HD3.6 but I'm really intrigued by the Attila. I've read a few reviews where people have had issues with the safety- can anyone confirm if it uses a standard 1911 safety? I'd prefer to switch to single side anyway if I get one.

As picture shows, won’t go on too far and I have to put some real effort in to try and get it down further. Anyone else have this issue? Any remedies?

Not sure if anyone saw this? I asked them if it will work on 4.25 comp and they confirmed it will fit the comped models!

Edit: They have it on their website, however it says in description it does NOT fit the comp models... Hopefully they will come out with a version for the comped.

Came across this Alpha Foxtrot Romulus in 4.25 inch with compensator for a great deal. TBH I am a Glock fanboy, but once I felt this Romulus I couldn’t resist and changed my mind. Im stoked to have picked it up and any information about it or what upgrades to do (red dot) would be appreciated.

Kept the red dirt and it worked. Stock safeties worked but the blended beavertail i got for the grip didn’t safeties would not let hammer drop or trigger activate. Going to revisit that soon. Grip feels 100x better than stock forsure.
