  1. In fact a huge room for improvements as some parts do not match the RS prototypes, but I'm working on it. By the way one of the presented pistols (black Warrior) is made of spare parts from ARMY R28 ($80) and there is almost no difference with stainless Warrior from PGC (about $300)

  2. Who sells Raptor kits? I've seen it on Boomarms, but they usually have a mash with stock availability.

     

    Are they drop-fit or need some mods? Never had WA pistol - made several projects with TM and not sure if it worth to start with WA

  3. So, in fact they charge $850 for a $100 KJ gun and kit? which consist of steel frame, steel slide, slide stop? what about barrel bushing, guide rod plug and outer barrel?

     

    I think this product would be more demanded as a kit of Marui for $400 as a fair price... anyway even without CO2 power - you're not going to skirmish with $850 gun in a field where you can easily lose it :)

     

    Adding NOVA parts will make this gun $1200 I suppose

  4. Yeah, I know, but it seems they do not produce it in chrome\silver version - so Nova is the only choice I have. Anyway it's feasible to file down frame edges where needed - just don't want to bother before new parts arrive.

     

    I have a concern regarding brass bushing which are to be installed into frame (come with PGC kit) - they are too loose and grips wobble when shaking the gun - should I super-glue these bushings or there is another way?

  5. I have just started my new project - this is PGC metal kit. Bought it for about $300 and in general it worth these money. It's almost a straight fit kit - the only problem I faced with is grip safety - the frame doesn't work neither with NOVA Kimber one nor with standard MEU grip safety. I managed to align it with 1911A1 grip safety, but in this case it limits the hammer motion and hammer blocks the BBH. Yeah, and outer barrel which comes with the kit is a ###### - it's made of cheap diecast alloy with no glaze and feels like plastic.

     

    As Kimber has never produced Warriors in stainless steel there is no real steel prototype to copy, so I'm thinking about making a "custom shop" gun with magwell and all external furniture in silver.

     

    And again many thanks to LaZoucheCustomshop channel :)

  6. Thanks! Didn't think about it. For me it seems to be caused by the actuator and BBH left running bar, as when I push the actuator in a jam position by a needle it releases the slide easily. I'll try to swap NOVA brass hop-up with original one and will see if the problem will vanish

  7. Here are the parts I've used to build it

     

    Hurricane Kimber Tactical Entry II Conversion Kit

    Nine Ball Wide Use Air Seal Hop Up Rubber Chamber for Marui Handguns

    Nova Grip Safety for Marui 1911A1 / 5.1 - Kimber style - Steel Black

    Nova Housing for Marui 1911A1 - Type 2 (Checkered) – Steel

    Nova Barrel Bushing for Marui 1911A1 - Type 3 - Steel Black

    Nova Recoil Spring Plug - Type 3 - for Marui 1911A1 (Stainless)

    Nova Recoil Spring Guide for Marui 1911A1 (Stainless)

    MAG Replacement Springs for Marui 1911

    Airsoft Surgeon Super Light Sear Spring for Marui Hi CAPA and 1911 Series GBB

    Raven (PDI) 01 Inner Barrel (Marui MEU / 112mm)

    NOVA TM 1911A1 Kimber type Thumb Safety (Steel / Black)

    NOVA Brass Hop Up Base Chamber for Marui 1911 / MEU

    Nova Hammer for Tokyo Marui 1911A1 (Kimber Type) – Stainless

     

    Still have to install the following:

     

    Nova Grip Housing for Marui 1911A1 - with Lanyard Ring (Checkered) (Steel Black)

    Nova Ambi Safety Lock For Marui 1911A1 ( Kimber - Steel Black ) - cannot find it at the moment

    Nova Steel Hammer Set For Marui 1911/ MEU (Kimber, 2 Tone)

     

    After that starting another project. The kit is ordered and it's bloody expensive...

  8. Yes, it's a BladeTech holster designed for Kimber Warrior. I bought it on RW for $112 I think. The only modification I had to do with it to fit the gun properly was to boil the bottom (muzzle) side in a hot water for 10 seconds. But I don't particularly like the fact that you have to carry the gun with a hammer cocked to lock the upper strap, but it seems to be designed so as if you put the gun in with thumb safety off the slide moves back a bit.

  9. Here is my ongoing project of Kimber Tactical Enty II based on TM and Hurricane kit. A lot of NOVA parts installed, but still have to change thumb safety for an ambi, main spring housing for one with holes for magwell and maybe the hammer to achieve 100% authentic look
