SamJacksonFan Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 Uh, very nice shot, pal. That's the way I like it very much. Guess, a KM trigger, Springfield Match Trigger style, very cute, and the Commander hammer on this thing makes me a great fan of yours … you have style. A flat mainspring housing and it is a very nice piece. But Thumb safety doesn't work properly, right? The pin on the right side of the frame … I tried the Hicapa safety on my Marui 1911A1, too And how did you manage to get the edges of the frame worked of so that you can fit the beavertail? Nice craftmanship. Was the KM commander hammer easy to install (it says "minor fitting required") or was it a hassle? And what kind/make of chamber / outer barrel do you use? Metal I guess?

asinapple8805 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) thanks for the compliments guys, everything was a relative drop in fit except for the outer barrel, the trigger (a little), and the beavertail (a lot). i really wanted to get my hands on one of those NOVA frames and slides with the precut rail on the bottom. rails on pistols have always turned me on.

the cleaner Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 jeezuz Edge-Collector! IMO, that takes the cake on this entire 1911 thread. . not only because it's a Tiki. .but you have a metal single stack SVI. . .rarer than a metal SVI IED frame! oh well. . here's my pathetic attempt. . .(not finished) full metal Wilson Combat SDS Stealth Defense System: Sorry. .I haven't found a metal Wilson compact frame yet. .

hkssr20det Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 How do you have the thumb safety on with the slide locked back? Either way it looks good, I always wanted a SDS. Link to post Share on other sites
the cleaner Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 How do you have the thumb safety on with the slide locked back? Either way it looks good, I always wanted a SDS. Good eye HKS. . as I said. . ."not finished" I need to grind away about 1.5mm worth inside the frame where the left side ambi safety lever seats. . .or modify my lever. . .I can get the lever in, but the lever won't rotate because the frame thickness is thicker than the lever's slot.

asinapple8805 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) Nice job. I'm guessing thats a hi-capa beavertail right? I was actually thinking about doing this to my stock frame too but I didnt feel like switching everything out of my delta frame. If you have a hi-capa flat main spring housing you can modify that to work on your 1911 too. I have some pictures of my TM 1911 Delta with a hi-capa msh on it some pages back in this thread. Krame, i did manage to fit that capa housing on the 1911 and it looks pretty good. just sat in front of the computer watching re runs of LOST while i was filing away like a madman. Thanks for the advice although i'm not sure what i'd rather have, the metal stock 1911 one, or the plastic straight capa housing... hmmm decisions decisions. i have the Nineball MSH with the lanyard loop on one of my other capas and i really like it a lot. maybe i'll go with that, but that's $$ that i could use to buy Pizza and Beer (obviously the two best things in the world). also, for the people with experience with the NOVA frames and slide kits, what quality can i expect out of them. I personally hate guarder anything for frames and slides, and i would have gone with PGC however i'm really a sucker for railed frames. I was thinking of getting the NOVA Kimber frame that makes the gun look like the TLE/RL2 lower. any suggestions? Edited March 30, 2008 by asinapple8805 Link to post Share on other sites

the cleaner Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Junior, stock WA SDS metal outer barrel and comp. . it's unique to the SDS so you can't just buy an aftermarket replacement. . .the comp unscrews from the threaded outer barrel kinda like how compensators are keyed & threaded for the fullsize WAs w/ comps. I probably will machine a one-piece outer barrel/comp in the future. . .oh, it has a Guarder steel Wilson breech/chamber to complete the barrel assembly. Link to post Share on other sites
