A few years ago, the extraterrestrial Laugo Arms Alien invaded the U.S. with its bizarre yet innovative design and the lowest bore axis in the world on a pistol. Four years later, the Alien is evolving and set for an episode of The X-Files. Laugos Arms is proud to show off their newest pistol: The Alien Creator Limited Optics. This Creator is a limited edition run for the U.S. market designed from the ground up for the Limited Optics Division of USPSA.

The Alien Creator features a new look and the same DNA that made the original Alien pistol, featuring its insanely low world-class bore axis allowing for quick and rapid follow-up shots. Next, an interchangeable top rail allows for the ability to switch between iron sights or an optic. Also, featuring the delayed gas blowback system that reduces cycling time to allow for swift cadences while remaining locked in on your target.

The team over at Laugo Arms listened to the most commonly requested design features and took on the task of making those elements become a reality. The engineering team at Laugo Arms developed a new modular grip design, changed the grip angle to the iconic 1911 grip angle allowing for a more natural point of aim with the pistol. The Alien Creator also features deeper front and rear slide serrations, single screw takedown to reconfigure the top rail, and a lower profile on the magazine base pads for easier stacking on a shooter’s belt.

Below are the product description, features, and specs to see what the Alien Creator has to offer.
