Product Overview
ATLAS NYX v3
v3 series from Atlas Gunworks: These guns “are ours to shape in the image of our highest values and never to give to a lesser standard.”
Recent advances in red dot size and reliability have made them a legitimate alternative to iron sights for everyday carry. Enter The Atlas Gunworks Nyx RDS -- a slide-ride; optic-ready pistol with all the incredible performance characteristics of the original iron-sighted Nyx.
Atlas Gunworks is constantly improving upon functionality; and anything that can be deployed is done so in near real time. Here are the improvements specific to v3:
Slides: All v3 guns use billet slides manufactured in Atlas's Vermont facility.
Optics Plates: The optic plate has been redesigned for a more pleasing aesthetic; and Atlas added two additional mounting holes to improve security. While visually different; the v3 plates are compatible with v2 guns; and vice versa.
Front Sights: Atlas replaced the traditional dovetail sights with an interchangeable Glock-style sight. For shooters who would prefer no front sight; Atlas now offers a simple filler sight as an option on v3 guns. This does not apply to the Erebus (no sight) or the Artemis (retains the dovetail).
Grips: Atlas redesigned the grips; omitting texture in high-pressure spots and creating more space for the dominant hand. The grip panels have been improved and are also cross-compatible between versions.
Barrel: The feed ramp angle was revised to improve feeding and the bore has been adjusted to achieve a higher power factor with the same ammunition.
Grip Bushings: Atlas introduced their new (patent-pending) angled grip bushings; which will prevent over-insertion of magazines. This allows shooters to use premium magazines without worrying about damaging the ejector.
