I was debating between these two about a week ago. I picked the mpa for the slide cuts and it being pvd coated instead of cerakote. Plus it was about 400-500 less than the vudoo.

Thanks for the deep dive one these two and for your point of view, Skip. You not only have the best looking gun wall on KZfaq lol but as a gunsmith you also get a lot of the guns that we all wonder about coming to you to have work done, so thank you for always taking the time to make these kinds of videos. This is the stuff you won’t hear from all the flashy guntubers that get guns for paid reviews all the time. Just curious….are you gonna Genghis cut the priest, and flush cut and crown the barrel? Idk why, it just feels to me like that’s where that gun is going in the future.

Thanks for this comparison video! Both seem to have their pros & cons, mostly on individual tastes. But, I'm a trigger snob, too, so I should be good either way. 👍👍
@samglasgow56136 ай бұрын
Thank you for the review! I wonder if this one is over SR# 300 or so - they made many improvements around that point. The LOC is the hybrid with additional fitting, steel grip, shielded DAA safeties and a nitro fin. The trigger comes in at 2# and breaks in a bit lower

Yeah mine has the blue on the small parts and the guide rod and reverse plug and had same issue with the guide rod starting having bad marks very quickly and when I spoke with them they said that yeah they are not happy with it either and will not be doing much longer. Which they don't offer the barrel any longer from my understanding of what they told me.

I’ve owned 2011 for racing since 96. I have never looked at the grip meeting the frame at the top. Better technique on the trigger versus the trigger pushing your finger forward has been going on for years. Guys that come from Glock style like the push forward off the trigger.

I think that high-end 2011s are all very good. The nuances of each manufacturer and their pistol will not please everyone. I have a number o of these pistols. I simply fell in love with my Hayes, Cobra. I don't know how they do it. There is no recoil., it is as accurate as you are. It fits my hand like it was built in. I have the Titan, the DS9, and the TRS Comp. Skip fixed my trigger on the DS9. Their QC seems to be a bit dicey. I sent it to Skip because MPA did not seem to be very responsive. However, for $3000 it is a great gun. For $3500, the Priest is a dream. I simply feel fortunate to be able to own these. Skip has gone crazy on my Hayes RIA and I cannot wait to shoot it. Mrs. Skips chose the slide color and she has very good taste. I believe it will be a taste of what Skip's 2011 will be. The DNA of the gunsmith lives in every gun he builds or works on.
@MCFCTheMadHatterАй бұрын
I just bought the DS9 and didn’t really notice the lack of pushback when the trigger resets until I watched this video, and then read your comment. Was it a quick fix that he did on your DS9 or did you have other work done to it? If so, what? Just curious. Mine is all blacked out including the barrel, but have been thinking of adding a thumb rest and really like the way the bronze color in matte finish he does looks great especially when contrasted with the black grip etc he did on the Priest. In any case, I’m pretty new to all this and feel like I’m just starting on a journey down the rabbit hole lol. Look fwd to your reply if you get a chance 👍
@timothygarrity51816 ай бұрын
Hi Skip i hav e left a couple comments over the last few days about vudoo and mpa.I may be leaning towards vudoo after this video.I have a couple ? 1st is which grip has the larger circumference? As in wider pretty much and can you put an extended slide stop on the vudoo?. Triggers are close but i like the idea of the trigger pushing your finger forward.I had an issue with one of my guns triggers not pushing your finger forward and resulted in trigger freeze basically. I always shoot really fast and short stroke the trigger sometimes. I had a spring put in it that pushed your finger forward a little and actually like it.I think i shoot faster with the trigger pushing back against my finger.With the vudoo also do you activate safety by accident when you don't want causing the trigger not to fire? I have heard that with mpa. They are both nice and about equal.Trigger pull weights seem the same also.

And I just have to say that I love both but the MPA is the one im keeping. Edit: the mpa is the one I’m keeping because I can sell the vudoo faster due to demand, if there was no demand I’d sell the MPA

Excellent Comparison that I greatly appreciate you bringing to fruition… these are two pistols that I have been considering for Optics Limited… I was leaning towards the Vudoo Priest due to hearing about a lot more issue’s with the MPA DS9. I do really like the Slide cuts on the DS9 Slide myself over the simple serrations on the Priest but prefer everything else about the Vudoo Priest. If I order an Priest through your dealership Scott, am I able to request a Full length dust cover Priest in DLC with Silver Parts, 2.5lb Trigger, Flush and Crown barrel, Competition Blend, E2 Cheely grip with hybrid texture , wide shielded ambi-safeties and RMR cut? I am also wondering if I would still be able to use the Vudoo layaway program they offer through your dealer, with those custom options ?

Thank you both for the information.@@SkipsGunz so to clarify, I would just basically do the order through you (meaning there is no need to order from Vudoo directly), you would order/receive the pistol, make any adjustments we discuss, then send to my FFL? Then would all the payments be made to SkipsGuns? I appreciate the info on this process, I’ve never done a purchase this way before
