Overview

The Stealth Arms 1911 Platypus is a made-to-order double-stack 1911 where the buyer chooses between Glock G17 and SIG P320 magazine compatibility at the order configurator. Stealth Arms machines every Platypus in-house, and the platform's headline feature is the online builder: customers select frame, slide, and small-parts Cerakote colors with a real-time preview, then submit the order. Stealth Arms quotes 10 to 12 weeks for solid-color configurations and 16 to 18 weeks for multi-color builds; stock presets (Flash Carry, Integrated Comp, Crowd Pleaser V1/V2, Perry the Platypus, Titanium, Cotton Candy) ship in 1 to 2 business days when available.

The magazine ecosystem choice is the load-bearing technical decision. Picking Glock G17 puts the Platypus in the same magazine envelope as the Staccato HD P4 and HD P4.5: standard G17 mags at any gun store. Picking SIG P320 puts it in the same envelope as the SIG P211 series: M17/M18 and X-Carry magazines feed directly. The two configurations are not interchangeable on the same pistol because the magwell is cut for one pattern or the other. Stealth Arms ships each pistol with two magazines in the selected pattern and a fabric range bag.

The Platypus is sold in 5-inch Government, 4.25-inch Commander, and 3.9-inch compact barrel configurations. Slides are cut for the RMR optic footprint, and Stealth Arms lists the Government model at 17+1 capacity with a Glock G17 magazine. Pricing is configuration-dependent through the online builder rather than a single MSRP; secondary-market and dealer listings for in-stock Government models track in the $1,500 to $1,850 range.
