eel one [COE] Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 After reading 22 pages for an answer I might have overlooked it and only found the question, so here it is again: Will a RS main spring housing fit the TM M1911A1? and Will a RS mag release fit the TM M1911A1? Anyone? I still need an answer. Link to post Share on other sites

Gunnman Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Can I fit an PDI oval hole Detonics hammer on my M1911A1? They look of the same design to me, but I wanted to ask before I just buy it... Link to post Share on other sites
chris u'5 Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 The grip safety on my 1911 isn't working properly in that I can pull the trigger without engaging the grip safety. I know it's usually to do with the 3 leafed prong but I've forgot which one of the prongs I need to 'tweak' Can someone please remind me? Link to post Share on other sites
Sale Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 After taking out the safety and the sear pin underneath as well as two screws at the front (a phillips screw on the inside and a hex screw on the left side), you can lift the "inner frame" up from the actual grip. The trigger should then pretty much fall out of the rear with its own weight, provided that you removed the mag catch as well. You can then remove one phillips screw on the right side of the "inner frame" to access the firing mechanism (sear, hammer...) chris, if the spring isn't pushing the grip safety all the way back, the left part of the spring is what you should adjust in a Marui. Bend it towards the back and it'll engage the grip safety positively. The middle one returns the sear and the right one provides trigger return and disconnector action. -Sale Link to post Share on other sites

gunaholic336 Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 Hi I have a quick question are RS barrel bushings compatible with the TM 1911? Link to post Share on other sites
SamJacksonFan Posted August 17, 2008 Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 To the issue with the mainspring housing. No, real steel housings wouldn't fit on a normal uncustomiced TM 1911. How it is with after market metal kits I can't tell. But I have two main spring houses by NOVA, and they are cut identical to the orgininal Marui one. So I guess for NOVA metal kits real steel main spring houses wouldn't fit eighter. Link to post Share on other sites
eel one [COE] Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 How big is the difference? Will it be possible to modify the RS main spring housing to fit? Link to post Share on other sites
SamJacksonFan Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Well, first of all, I can't tell if the dimensions fit generally. I guess you see it best on the pictures … then decide for yourself … but from the pictures and the ancle of this side guides I'd say they wouldn't fit at all: For Marui 1911 GBB Real Steel main spring housing Link to post Share on other sites
eel one [COE] Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Hmmm... Yes I see, that will require supstancial modifications. Link to post Share on other sites
SamJacksonFan Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Well, I'd say it oversteps substancial modifications, if you look at the ancle of those side railes. The real steel ones go parallel, the Marui one tends towards the checkered back. I think no chance. Sorry. Link to post Share on other sites
RockDog Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 Im currently building a Springfield from a PGC kit. I bought one of these to go on it but its to wide to function. I have tried it on the ABS frame with the same result. http://cgi.ebay.com/KM-M1911A1-HI-CAPA-Air...1713.m153.l1262 Does anyone know where I can get one which is a better make in the same style?

Vercingetorix Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 I'm pretty sue one of the pistol genii on this forum has done a real msh on airsoft.... I think is was, correct me if I am wrong, romulus? It was a delta 1911 IIRC.... Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing is impossible, however I'm not good at eigher welding or soldering so it might be out of my league. But someting with well placed pins should be doable. Anyhow, I'll just have to wait until PDI sees the light and makes some more aftermarked parts for the 1911. Link to post Share on other sites

I think is was, correct me if I am wrong, romulus? It was a delta 1911 IIRC.... I have a modded TM 5.1 MSH of my Delta right now. Judging by the pictures of the RS MSH it doesn't look like it would be worth the trouble. The thing about RS parts is that they usually are a pain to fit. If there is an airsoft version of the part it is almost always better to use it. The reason that I used to many modded RS parts on my Delta was because I built it before all the parts like NOVA, etc. had come out. My only choice was RS. If I were to do it now I wouldn't use anything RS. Link to post Share on other sites
fal Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 my trigger is sticking after installing a nova marsoc kit... where should i sand to make it smooth? thanks guys, and again, sorry for thequestions that have surely been answered before -Joe The trigger sticking with Nova kit is normal especialy with WE and Hicapa trigger. I have had no problems with PDI, Nova and KM trigger. These are 1911/hicapa specific ones. Not just hicapa. Anyway, sand top and bottom of the trigger, granted the trigger bar is properly fitted to trigger and is not bent. No need to sand sides. Just smooth things out a bit. Don't go aggressive.
