Alpha Foxtrot has added a new product to their product line: The Romulus.
It is a double-stacked 1911, patterned specifically around the 2011, and has a polymer grip module.
It is chambered in 9mm and utilizes a bull barrel. It is being sold as either a 5″ or 4.25″ gun.
The gun is optics-ready, utilizing the RMSc footprint. When using an optic on this gun, you retain your rear iron sight.
The gun uses Staccato-patterned mags. I’m not sure how many mags it’ll come with, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it came with only one.
I’m also sure it’ll have some MIM internals, which isn’t a huge deal (MIM parts can always be replaced with tool steel parts).
The gun is priced at $1620, which is actually a pretty good price.
The only real con is that it is only backed by a 1-year limited warranty.
They started selling the Romulus on 8/1/2024, but I’ve seen NO marketing other than Alpha Foxtrot posting Instagram photos. There’s one Youtube video but it’s just a quick 10 sec video of the Romulus being rotated.
Approximately 80% of the information within this post came from their Instagram posts and not their Youtube or website content, which is a bit crazy. They REALLY need to step up their marketing game. I’m not surprised that I’ve not seen any Youtube reviews yet, and I’m not sure when I’ll see the first one, but when I do, I’ll post it on the blog.
