First Look: VKTR Industries VKP Pro Double Stack 1911

VKTR Industries has just announced the VKP Pro, a new double-stack 1911 9mm pistol.

It seems that every week these days a new company comes out with a 2011-style pistol, but that’s a good thing given the massive demand. The more options that exist, the more features and price points shooters have to choose from, and the latest to be announced is VKTR Industries’ VKP Pro.

Made entirely in the U.S. using American-made parts, the VKP Pro is designed for personal defense, duty use and even competition shooting. It features a 4.4-inch bull barrel, a DLC ArmorLube coating and a hefty weight of 3.5 pounds thanks to the durable 416 stainless steel frame. Chambered for 9mm, it has a capacity of 16 rounds with flush-fit mags and 20 rounds with extended mags, and two of each are included with each pistol. Also included with each purchase is a set of 3 adaptor plates (Aimpoint Acro, Trijicon RMR and Leupold DPP) as the VKP Pro is optics-ready as well. It ships with XS Sights iron sights installed, and other features include a Combat Match Trigger with a ~3.5-pound break, fully machined steel controls and a reinforced polymer grip.

Dave Rybacki, owner of VKTR Industries, said this about his company’s new 2011-style pistol:

We are extremely excited for this new lineup … The VKP Pro is our flagship model, and we are working to expand the line. End users can be sure that this handgun will be manufactured to the highest standards and tolerances.

MSRP for the VKP Pro is $4,000 and they’re shipping to dealers now.
