Owners of the American Precision Firearms Second Century typically approach it as a full-size .45 ACP pistol with traditional aesthetics. The wood grip panels are a consistent talking point; most owners appreciate the look and feel, though a few prefer synthetic for wet-weather use.

The 5-inch barrel gives good sight radius and manageable recoil for a .45 ACP. The Second Century name hints at a heritage-inspired design, which appeals to buyers who want a classic-looking .45 without a plain-Jane appearance. Trigger quality gets mixed feedback, with some owners finding it competitive out of the box and others replacing it early.

Capacity varies between listed configurations, which causes some buyer confusion. Owners who prioritize round count tend to go with the 14-round variant; those who prefer a single-stack feel opt for the 7-round. Aftermarket support is reasonable given the .45 ACP platform, but parts availability specific to this model requires some research.
