Armorer's Forge AF1911 Romulus 9mm 4.25" MOS

The AF1911 Romulus: A Modern Take on a Classic Design

The Armorer's Forge AF1911 Romulus represents a thoughtful evolution of the 1911 platform, engineered for shooters who demand both tradition and contemporary performance.

Construction and Materials

Built from precision-machined SUS416 stainless steel, the Romulus features a durable DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) black finish on both frame and slide. This combination provides excellent corrosion resistance and a professional appearance. The frame incorporates front and rear slide serrations with anti-glare top serrations for reliable manipulation in any lighting condition.

Barrel and Accuracy

The 4.25" bull ramped barrel is threaded and fitted with a compensator to help manage recoil and muzzle rise. This configuration makes the Romulus an excellent choice for shooters seeking improved control and faster follow-up shots, whether at the range or in competition.

Optics Ready

The MOS (Modular Optic System) optic cut allows you to mount a wide variety of modern red dot sights using compatible adapter plates. This makes the Romulus equally at home with iron sights or contemporary optics.

Controls and Ergonomics

• Fully ambidextrous thumb safety and slide release
• Extended beavertail for comfort and safety
• Flared magwell for faster reloads
• Lightweight polymer grip module with textured surface
• Glowing night sights for low-light shooting
• Picatinny rail for mounting lights or lasers

Trigger and Magazines

The Romulus features an approximately 4-pound trigger pull—crisp and predictable. The package includes five 10-round double-stack magazines, providing substantial capacity while maintaining the classic 1911 profile.

The Bottom Line

The AF1911 Romulus bridges the gap between 1911 tradition and modern tactical requirements. It's a serious tool for serious shooters.
