flateric41 Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Hey Flat, would you say that the finish on that Protector is more like Tanaka's Midnight blue, or more like KSC CZ-75 First Version? Photography can be bit different from the real sight... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The finish is more like the CZ75 - Looks a little bit strange first, but special (Protector) Grtz, Flat.

garry Posted March 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Flat's, You have some real nice 1911's there. I've got the WA Tactical Special. My box looks just like the one you have. ( the nicely coloured box with pics - not the brown ones )........ Snowman kindly reveiwed it recently on his site. Seems you have some strange WA's too?. Link to post Share on other sites
evilhippy Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 haha. I had it tucked in because I was wearing a shoulder holster so it would have looked goofier with the thing strapped to my belt with my shirt untucked. I'm glad I didn't get the one with the red grips too. Mine looks sexier. hahaha. That would be funny. Or committing crimes with guns with pearled handles. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, well. I didn't actually ask the chap (Tree) I bought it from what colour the handle was until I `shook hands` on the deal, still it's damn cool, and with the extended mags fom the gigant it is rather psychotically cool Link to post Share on other sites
-=Bazza=- Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 Hi all, Working on a little eye-candy upgrade for my WA Government Mark IV Series 70, let me know what you think............ Yours B Link to post Share on other sites
evilhippy Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 Now there's a thing, everytime I cruise through HK sites for the best WA 1911 the series 70 always look wrong, but whenever I see a photo from `reality` (outside the showroom) they look spot on, for the frame shape/size etc. I can never pick the best WA 1911 but that looks excellent man, those grips look slightly odd to me still, what are they made from?

Marcus Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Wasn't going to post pics of this until I had its twin built and the AlumaGrips engraved, but here you go: Second one coming up shortly Guide rods also being swapped out for LaserMaxes. Anyone have any ideas how to engrave the grips? M. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I've got a link somewhere for a company that can supply custom engraved grips. I'll see if I can dig it out for you later, got to go out for a few hours know. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Didn't have to go out after all, don't know if this is what your after but have a look anyway. Gun Grips Link to post Share on other sites
Marcus Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Cheers, I've used GunGrips once or twice, I don't like laser engraving on black aluminium, the shallowness tends to look like it's silkscreened on, you know. I was more thinking decorative etchings in the old-school "grapevine" style, around the base and curling around the bottom screw hole, and something similar up top... But I'm not sure I may end up swapping out the AlumaGrips for Crimson Traces, I've heard lots of bad things about the LaserMaxes M. Link to post Share on other sites

BigAl Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Marcus, where is that compensated barrel from? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thats a ported barrel not a compensator and and a hybrid slide there from Shooters.
