Bul Armory Trophy 1911

- Apparently there's a new kid on the block for 1911 and 2011s. Bul Armory has been becoming more and more popular in the competition 1911/2011 space. The Trophy is a single stack IPSC classic division gun. This one is chambered in 9mm, and features an ambidextrous safety, oversized adjustable mag release, front and rear cocking serrations, magwell, etc... And for the price point, I think it's a hidden gem of a deal.

I got one in 45 ACP. I'm really happy with mine. I'm going to buy a light to go on it. I will be using mine as EDC. This pistol shoots really well.
I always enjoy your videos especially when it comes to the 1911 platform. I am a lefty as well and it nice to see when a company takes us into consideration. Keep the videos coming!!
We matter damnit
I had been waiting for this video all week lol. 1911s , humor, the beat, and Belgian mallinua.
Thank god for editors making my BS halfway presentable
Bought a 1911 Bul SAS Gov today from it being one of my favorite handguns to use in video games. . After watching your review, it solidified my decision on it and I love it.
Awesome man congrats on the purchase!
How does the channel not have more subs?? Great info, humor, and delivery. Keep up the great work!
Riiight he'll be famous soon.
Haha, I hear ya, thanks. First gun reviews started going up 6 months ago and it's been nice steady growth since then
I find the videos tedious. Takes him way too long to get to the point.
Beautiful firearm...absolutely.
Great review of this gun! Been waiting for this kind of review, all juice and goodness..Lefty’s ‘round here! Cheers man
Juice
Fellow lefty here. In all my Bul 1911s I turned the mag release button up to the 12 o'clock position to move it away from my middle finger. Still use the distal knuckle of the middle finger to press it for reloads.
I own 2 Kimber Polymer .45s in full size (for competition) and commander (carry) which I believe are actually Bul frames. They have been totally reliable and originally sold at a price point much less than the well-known 2011 brands.
My ☠️🖤☠️ for the illustrious 1911 Platform landed me on your channel.
Your Honest Opinion on the niche this 1911 fills, personal changes and MOST IMPORTANTLY, your continuous and appreciated advocation for LEFTIES during this review; SUBSCRIBED!😎
THIS video is the FIRST I've watched, actually mentioning LEFTIES being Afterthoughts to a lot of manufacturers.👍🏼
I'm looking forward to checking out the rest of your channel content.
Semper Fi! ⚡💪🏽
👍🏻welcome to the show
My starter 1911 was a Para Ordance Expert 14.45, and I still love it. Got it used and I've only had a issue with one of the orginal mags that came with it (pretty beat up mag).
My Desert Eagle 1911 ( made by Bul ) has served me well for years. Slide is smooth as buttered glass, trigger is fantastic. You're absolutely right: Bul makes a better than average 1911 for a very mainstream price.
I call it my anti-progressive trifecta: military styled, hi-capacity mag ( 8 instead of the original 7 ), and made in Israel.
So its true, bul armory supplies 1911s to magnum research ( desert eagle) I bought the undercover light weight. It does say bul ltd on the frame, that's fantastic.
@@BLACKWOLF-1911 I've wanted the 3" model in 9mm for years. Either that or a Bul SAS.
@@JaronActual I have the SAS II UL and it's a fantasic little and light gun!
Great review. Fun to watch. Keep it up.
Thanks a ton!
From the point this video was made it looks like you have doubled your subscribers. Keep on keepin on!
We did indeed, we got some traction now!
" Lefty's lives matter", Love it. Ice review on what seems like a great guy, Thanks for posting. Always enjoy a lefty perspective on a 1911. Southpaws need to stick together..
We matter. Kinda
Another lefty here 🤚appreciate the review POV
@@wervenom3513 Gotcha covered
I'm right handed, but shoot handguns lefty... always looking for info with a lefty perspective!
Man the opening music sounded like something out of Samurai Champloo by Nujabes. Also, really enjoyed the humor and review. Subbed.
Welcome my man!
I was trying to find a 9 mm 1911, have or have owned six 45 acp versions. For about 18 months, was looking locally for a Bul, magnum research, or Springfield emissary. Ended up being enticed to purchase a Alpha Foxtrot, the parts fit and finish were outstanding but after the first three rounds touching each other on the target it failed its first 100 round range test (fail to eject many times). Just got back from the manufacturer in Georgia yesterday in very good turn around time, but have not retested yet.
I have this gun in comander and it is a laser beam I got it new 2 years ago for 700 and I have guns that cost 3 times more and don’t shoot as well! One of the top 3 guns in my very extensive arsenal! Bull armory is no joke guns made by people who literally depend on guns like this to survive! Pound for pound one of the best guns made end of story!
Love the attitude!
Haha
I first heard about bul on a edc 2011 bul makes on talon sai channel a year ago. Also in a article on the bul armory SPIKE 1911 that was cool , no review on that one .
This is the best 1911 youll find under 2k still. Dan Wesson makes some that are close with maybe a tighter fit (overrated tbh) but even those have tags at or over 2k and the action on the Trophy is still one of the best ive come across in any price range. They really know how to fit slides to frames and lap their rails properly because this gun is just smoother than ice sliding down melted butter on a taut nutsack. Theyve updated it a bit since this too, better serrations on the slide, extended mag release and a better looking trigger. Bul makes some of the best production 1911s out there even though theyve started to make a name for themselves theyre still underrated as hell.
That’s exactly the model I’m looking for, and no dealer in the US has them in stock. I was told by a dealer they are unable to order them that BUL Armory sends them different models from time to time. They really need to get their game together!
What about their online store ?
To be fair, I have reached out and they have said by keeping prices down and quality up, they have to have lower production rates. Imo it's worth it, because bul armory makes insane guns for the price, by any standard. Probably some of the best full-production line 1911s in existence.
I have one I love it, its a beautifully made piece, 2600 dollars here in Oz not a cheap 1911 but unfortunately mine wont load 10 rounds, 9 clicks in fine but 10 rounds in a mag and I have to literally SLAM it into the gun, and that broke the ejector off which I had to replace. So when I use it for IPSC I'm at a one round less disadvantage. I contacted Bul and they are yet to get back to me but promise they will. Great review btw 😉
Interesting. Maybe it just needs some different mags? I've been running a lot of single stack 9 lately with 10 rounds in the mags no prob. Not on a Bul gun however
1911 Syndicate yes I found Wilston Combat mags work well in it... bloody expensive magazines though.
Verygood i love .bul.
FYI, BUL markets a less-expensive version called the Classic 1911 selling for about $850 in stainless steel. Available in both .45 and 9I'm and an equally impressive firearm.
Very cool
It's an IDPA/ plinking fun gun!
Just picked up the standard bul government 1911. Pretty damn amazing for 700 bucks. My mind is kind of blown actually. Great look at the trophy
🤙🏻
Where did you buy it?
Really great video!
I'm a lefty too and I own the BUL SAS II UL and I wish it had a lefty mag release button (I can add an ambi safety if I want, which is nice).
There is a limitation on how the 1911 platform design that doesn't allow for a lefty mag release button?
In a 1911 review, where all the guns fit the same form factor, its helpful to get deeper into component details. For example, Dan Wesson, which others have mentioned as the primary price-point competitor at approx. $1700 uses all bar stock small parts, whereas something like a Springfield TRP - also a nice gun in the $1400-ish range uses a good amount of MIM. When a newcoming to the market, like BULL comes along, we want to know whats IN the gun, and how they're making them. Without that you're just kinda saying, "Well, it's a 1911, alright!" Thanks Brother!
I read somewhere they have made some parts for kimber in the past, besides that Idk anything too
William Sack , I pretty new/uneducated on 1911s what’s the difference in the bar stock small parts and the MIM?
Keter this is a solid reply and explanation of the difference between MIM and Bar Stock. However I have to disagree on your statement on 1911s only being “art you can shoot”. If that was the case, why do 1911 type handguns virtually dominate all forms of action pistol shooting? Glocks are a fantastic choice for many organizations due to their low cost, ease of operation, and simplicity of repair (Glock parts simply drop in and do not require the fitment a 1911 part would demand). However, when it comes to accuracy, reliability, longevity of the firearm itself, and downright shooting speed, 1911s rock.

A video that I would like to see in a company comparison video of custom 1911's: company hallmarks and idiosyncrasies, industry reputation, etc. Its a topic I have not been able to find elsewhere and would love to receive input from you guys as a dude slowly saving up for a 1911 in that price range.
Hmm interesting. May be able to do that in the coming months. I have a custom 1911 that is about 3 months out. A true custom gun, vs what I would call "off the shelf custom"
@@1911syndicate excellent thank you for the quick reply I'm looking forward to that video
@@wallaceavin7490honestly I'd rather spend my money on this gun than a high end custom. Better deal for what you get and even a hell of a deal at that this is right at that point where you hit diminishing returns and every 1000 dollars spent gets you about as much of an improvement as every 2-300 before this point. Like I said though this gun is amazing and I can't imagine anyone would regret it, I have the updated version from what's shown in the video and this is by far the best 1911 you can get below 2k. Bul offers insane amount of value in this
I feel like Dan Wesson owns this price bracket. Wish there were a few more companies making them in this bracket, with handfit slide/frame/barrel.
Wish I could get a DW for a review, unsuccessful thus far
@@1911syndicate I have a DW Valor, and it compares to my Baer in fitment. Their cirrent lineup seems less classic than my taste.
Trophy beats all DW 1911s under 2k tbh, love this gun
@1911 Syndicate Hey man! I forgot to ask..since you are a lefty how’s the mag release button when you do double tap? I myself is a lefty and been wondering if does give you something to worry like when you shoot it since the mag release button is oversized (good looking).
It can be taken off so it's just a regular size mag release and then it's not an issue
Great Review! Enjoyed the information. I wanted to ask you a question though. Have you ever reviewed Fusion Firearms in Naples, Florida. They have some great 1911's starting i sub $1000.00 range, and up to $3000 +. You can even order a decent custom in the range you described in this video, $1000.00 to $2,000.0 range. Try them out, owner is Bob Serva.
I have not heard of them, open to checking out a gun though if they would be
For those who are not familiar with the Hebrew alphabet, BUL is the 8th letter. It means "produce or out growth." Certainly applies to the land, earth. Where it was once rocks and sand, there is now produce and citrus. Israel is an exporter of many things especially high tech items. My Heavenly Father has truly blessed his favored people.
Thank you Lord.
If a 45 acp is to much for you to shoot enjoyably, instead of just shooting a 115 grain 9mm, you should try 22lr. You’ll really love that then! Just saying. You be you ;)
I just realized you only have 2.5k subs. That's an absolute tragedy.
Haha work in progress, new channel
@@1911syndicate I'm not trying to sound like a fan boy (I mean you're a wronghanded soulless ginger that has a hateable amount of high end toys to play with on a hateable amount of free land) but the production value is super high and your delivery is really, really good. I'm calling it, you'll be one of the "those" gun channels in a couple of years. Good job, and screw you lol.
@@warriorworkstraining This made me laugh out loud really hard lmao 🤣😂
I think a Springfield Range Officer 9mm is about the same range as that and shoots probably similar.
Perhaps, haven't shot it
My 45 acp magnum research bul desert eagle is much more accurate for me than my 45 acp range officer target. I even did a trigger job to the springfield to try to compete with the desert eagle with no luck.
how does this compare to the dan wesson poinmant 9?
Haven’t shot that one
Comparing this to Dan Wesson, which is better? They both are on the same range.
Haven’t gotten hands on a DW yet so not sure
9mm AND 1911.
Mag release can be swapped.
Dan wesson is at that price point
Been trying to get one
@@1911syndicate They are hard to come by. I have a Dan Wesson commander 45acp and that was hard to get
Where can i buy one of these?
Honestly no clue, my understanding is Bul just changed their dynamics with distributors and dealers
Is this where Magnum Research gets their 1911s from? Magnum Research’s customer support said they get their 1911s from Israel.
Maybe, but considering that Bul Armory 1911s are close to $800 msrp I doubt thay it would be economically viable for Magnum Research to buy from these guys, make their modifications, and then sell in the U.S. for an msrp of $850-950. I think Magnum Research has their own manufacturing plant in Israel.
yes bul armory makes all the magnum research 1911 line of pistols.
Jeff is correct. My DE1911 is stamped Bul and "Made in Israel" and I've had it for years.
Dude!!! How about Dan Wesson!! Their 1911s are in this exact price point!! What do you think of their 1911s, btw?!
Honestly never shot one
1911 Syndicate 😱.... Me neither!!! 😂 But every single review I saw/read claims it’s the best production 1911 on the market!! You have to review one!!! I think you are going to like the Specialist... I really like the work you are doing! I’m a 1911 fan, but only have one (SW 1911 E) because of cost... but I spend hour in the high end guys website admiring the pistols.... Cheers
i own a dan wesson silverback.DW gives you a great gun for the price.they run from about 1300 to 2000 k.all metal no mim parts and hand fitted.
@@danve65 Right on, gonna try to get one for a couple weeks
Specialist...thank me later
Did you just flip me off?
Nahhhh
Brother you need to get ahold of CZ Dan Wesson get a Specialist in 9mm since you're a 9mm guy. DW is THE BEST 1911 under 2K. Been switching between my Specialist and Nighthawk Enforcer on duty and carry a DW Valor off duty. Been a Nighthawk shooter for years decided to give DW a try for the last year and im very impressed. All bar stock no cast or mim semi custom hand fit guns. Pretty much on par with Les Baer at a lower price point give em a try you won't be disappointed. Only thing I don't care for is the guns are a bit under sprung which can easily be changed.
Good tip, I'm going to reach out to them soon and see if they'll send me something shoot for a week or two
I HONESTLY THINK THESE ARE JUST DESSERT EAGLES FIXED UP A LIL BIT..LOL BECAUSE THEY SURE FAVOR
That's not a bad thing. Bul makes DE 1911s ( which I'm guessing you know ) and a lot of people consider them one of the best "lower cost" 1911 to buy.
I'm NOT a fan of left handed controls, sorry lefty's. I've carried a gun for my entire adult life for work, not just take it to the range to target shoot. Ambi safety have a way of getting caught up on everything when worn in a holster, and can actually take the gun off safe during the course of the day. Sorry lefty's but that's just not acceptable, any gun I've owned that came ambi I flipped to right hand only.
FYInfi. my Kimber piece of Shit also. Frame cracked offered new one at reduced price. $1,200.00 = $900.00. So I could buy 2 pieces of S---. How about replacing "YOUR" broken frame?? Went up 3 levels of management same answer. I own NO Kiber's!!!!!
Damnnnn that’s a bummer
This guys web name is '1911 Syndicate' yet he doesn't even know 1911 terminology for the parts? Wow! No credibility.
Oh no? The clip holds 10 bullets. Look who’s spouting facts now
1st video from this guy I've ever watched and he decided to review a competition gun without even trying to get a clue of what the rules of the competition this gun is designed for. Come on, 5 min of research on google would have clared up that personal ignorance!
The rest of the "review" is pretty much Mr. Tacticool trying to explain why a beachball is a substandard hockey puck. (no rail for my rocket launcher kind of shit). Get your crap together man, at least acknowledge that you are reviewing a power tool and not a spanner. Geez...
Nope
Come on dude!he said he doesn’t do competition why would he google it?great review!
And Jan if you would have googled how to spell cleared you would have spelled it right
