Alpha Foxtrot Elevates Romulus with Aluminum Grip Upgrade

Dasan USA today announced the Alpha Foxtrot Romulus 1911DS, now featuring a precision-machined aluminum grip engineered to deliver improved control, balance, and shooting performance.

Proudly made in the USA, the Romulus is an all-metal 1911 double-stack platform built for shooters who demand durability, precision, and modern capability. The aluminum grip minimizes flex under recoil, resulting in enhanced stability, faster follow-up shots, and a more connected, consistent shooting experience. Its refined ergonomics offer a secure, confident hold in demanding conditions.

Constructed from SUS416 stainless steel, the Romulus features a bull-ramped, compensated barrel designed to reduce muzzle rise for flatter shooting. A DLC-coated forged steel slide ensures long-term durability and resistance to wear.

Engineered for speed and control, the Romulus includes:

"The aluminum grip fundamentally changes how the pistol handles under recoil," said Chris Cole, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Dasan USA. "It provides a more stable, responsive feel that serious shooters will immediately recognize."

Available Models:

With the introduction of the aluminum grip, Alpha Foxtrot continues to focus on performance-driven innovation—delivering enhancements that translate directly to improved control, speed, and shooter confidence.
