When it comes to Triarc<\/a> Systems<\/a>, admittedly I’m a fanboy. I’m mostly familiar with their custom Glocks and I’ve loved every single one I’ve put my hands on. But when it comes to 1911s and even boutique, high-end 2011s….. I’m not going to lie… I’m not a huge fan. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve shot and appreciate STI’s and Wilson Combats as much as the next guy but like most people, the price tag has always dissuaded me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After my first shot, I was blown away by how well the Bluebird managed recoil. I never lost sight of the mounted RMR dot.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The pistol looks gorgeous. Seriously, Triarc does an incredible job and maintains painstaking attention to detail. Every slide cut is smooth. The finish is extraordinary and the grip texture is perfectly balanced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But enough about cosmetics. Man does the Bluebird perform just as good as it looks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
