While this pistol is fantastic as a race gun, it is fantastic for any type of target shooting. I swept a Precision Pistol match with mine! This gun shoots very tight little groups that equal my SIG P210. Regarding comfort, I prefer this over my 210. The finest 9mm pistol I've ever owned and that includes Les Baer and Brown. Great design, awesome execution.

This gun is the pinochle. I brought it to the range with my friends and we shot the Athena first Everyone said it ruined shooting everything else that day Not sorry lol love being an Atlas owner made in my home state thank you Atlas

The Atlas Gunworks Athena is the ultimate pistol for any shooter. Designed to excel across every aspect of the shooting world, it delivers unmatched performance and reliability. Whether you’re dominating the competition or relying on it for duty use, the Athena performs flawlessly and consistently. With the Athena in your hands, you’ll experience precision, power, and peace of mind like never before. It’s more than a firearm it’s a partner you can count on.

I LOVE my Atlas Athena. I think it is the best all around option for carry, competition, or just a great range day. Pro tip, if you are hesitant about getting one, try to find someone around you that does and ask to shoot it. You will fall in love and need to get one for yourself!

My first of many Atlas’s that I’ve bought & this is the 1 that got me hooked! Besides the flawless craftsmanship & perfect fit and finish on these 2011’s, the performance is even better! I never have issues with my Athena EVER. It eats any ammo I feed it & the return to zero is real! The Athena is the perfect model to start with if you’re undecided, you won’t regret it!
