This may be a bit off topic... but I'm pretty impressed with the shop I ordered the Raider from so far. I never heard of them but googled them and they had good reviews. I called around 1040am to make sure it was actually in stock. They said it was but they only had a few left and offered to take the order over the phone. But I wanted to do it online since I had to move money first. I checked the status history after I got the shipping email last night.
I ordered at 1047am, shipping label was created at 1152am, and it was with UPS at 542pm. I wish all shops shipped like that! Again, I have no affiliation with this place. And I'll update when I get it... but so far, like I said, I'm impressed. The shop is Florida Gun Exchange anyone ever deal with them? |

OK hive, serious question, I have 1911 pattern guns but I need to know if these would make a good host for a 460 Roland barrel?
Second question, can these be converted to 10 mm? Thanks! |

FINALLY got my Raider in. My dealer called me from the distributor show asking me which one of the Tisas models I was looking for. After telling him, he got it ordered and... it STILL took forever. Alas... it's here. I have oiled her down and put 200 rds through it. I can say, that other than the right side grip panel coming lose, it has ran perfect... Accuracy is amazing, hanging in there with my Sig Emperor Scorpion. I could be more happy. The only thing I changed out was the recoil spring. I moved up to a 18.5 # spring due to loading and shooting some warmer loads. My cost for the pistol was $600 out the door. I don't think I did too bad.

Said to hell with it and ordered both the JSOC and Raider last week.
Picked them up yesterday. Very impressed with fit and finish on both pistols. Both are very solid. No perceptible wobble in the slide and frame fit. Triggers are a bit heavy. I'll put them on the scale Saturday. Both triggers have a plastic face. I prefer Videcki's so that will eventually get changed. Haven't gotten to live either yet. Will report when I do. |

These have been unfired by me. The carbon and brass seen would be from factory test firing.

Picked up mine today.
    I posted a ic with my WWII style 9MM Tisas. The finish is very good. The fit is tight. My 9MM WWII Tisas came with matching cerakoted Meggars. The Raider comes with 2 magazines that are blued, with just a "9MM" marked on the magazine body. No brand name is seen. It has a removable floor plate for easier cleaning similar to a Wilson style magazine. I just wiped it down with Otis CLP. Hoping to shoot it this weekend.

They absolutely look fantastic for the money. I do wonder what percentage of Tisas require clean up to fully function reliably? I have read some people have had to disassemble them and remove burrs, etc., to get them functioning flawlessly.

Given how tight the fit feels to me, it wouldn`t surprise me if it needs a break in period. |

Finished up my clone Colt M45A1 made from a Tisas Raider. Now it’s not 100% correct but the best we could do with the engraver!!! My COLT and USMC should have been a hair bigger and slightly slanted but I can live with it. The cool thing is the Q code is actually one that when scanned will bring up USMC M45A1 on the internet as a search !!! 😃
I gonna add one more coat on the right frame engravings to get them darker and filled better.
