Zephyranthes Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 The externals are still basically stock, but all the internals have been improved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is it custom or come in black? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Touchette Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Isn't it just the KJW Tactical Grip, or some name like that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davedawg123 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 I think you are correct. Fiddlesticks, did the grip require any mods? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Nope, It slipped on like a charm. Yes its the KJW Tactical thingamajig. (For anyone interested, I have an extra one BNIB for sale) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrManiac Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 (edited) My Taurus PT1911 project is now done...... Slide is a TM 1911a1 with custom cocking serrations added (not brilliant but they'll do). Lowered and flared ejection port. Custom rear sight (TM VSR cut and shaped to suit) and custom made fore sight added, resembling the straight eight Heinie real steel sights. Tanio Koba tactical grip added. TM 'Desert Warrior' black trigger (holes are wrong but its close to the real thing) and KM ring hole hammer. Guarder black FLR and custom made guide rod plug added (TM 1911a1 drilled through to suit FLR). The beavertail grip safety is a TM 5.1 with the beavertail cut both sides and the palm bump smothed out, all to resemble the Taurus real steel one. TM MEU barrel fitted (may spray silver in time to match real steel). All internals are standard TM parts. This was purely done as a 'spares box' project....

Marui MEU ABS barrel sprayed silver. Nova ambi-thumb safety, slide lock. Anvil beavertail grip safety. Guarder trigger. The slide has been filled and re-engraved. Grip has been sanded smooth and spray painted to resemble 'Faux Ivory'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ratboy44 Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Anyone got any hints/tips on how to do a project 2011? donor pistols parts etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrManiac Posted June 12, 2010 Report Share Posted June 12, 2010 Anyone got any hints/tips on how to do a project 2011? donor pistols parts etc? If you want a reliable, robust and skirmishable donor gun, go for either the TM 5.1 or maybe, if your stuck for cash, the WE 5.1 series. Yes the WA guy's will say their guns are better but WA's pistol purchases will empty your wallet faster than your girlfriend on a shopping trip! All the previous gun platforms have an enormous range of add on parts to choose from. Manufactures like Shooters Design, Davidson Custom, Nineball, Guarder, Nova, LCT, 5KU and Anvil are some of the better ones, or if you have the cash ( and lots of it!) try Prog4. Basically set your budget and go from there, you can make a suprisingly good weapon from some of the cheaper manufacturers. Or do what i do, convert and modify standard parts etc to suit what 'look' your after. Hope that helps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrManiac Posted June 13, 2010 Report Share Posted June 13, 2010 Hawt. Nice work. Thank you for the compliment It took a bit of work to mask off the rest of the grip and sand down/fill the markings but i think its worth it in the end, adds that bit of distinction.

Another question is, how much machining is required? if any as i dont have access (or know how) on lathes, milling etc etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Another question is, how much machining is required? if any as i dont have access (or know how) on lathes, milling etc etc. Machining isnt really required unless your doing some real heavy modification work. I usually only use a hacksaw, heavy metal file and needle files oh and a 'Dremel' or equivalent. Most add on after market parts should be a straight fit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saila Cilbup Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) This is my baby. The only real alterations I've made are the 6.01mm Palsonite inner barrel, and a slightly different outer barrel, I had to order the version that comes in the guns sold in Taiwan, because the barrel that comes in these guns sold in america is just a little too long and the precision inner barrel wouldn't work. I saw a picture of the KP06 "Gunner Grip" in white (or very light gray) and I would kill for it, but I can't actually find it. Apart from that grip I plan to replace the slide catch and safeties with shiny silver ones, and maybe a new trigger, as well as one of thise nineball skeleton style magwells. I really wish there were 6" threaded barrels out there. Anyone know of a holster that could hold this thing with the laser attached? I love how my rail-mounted laser has... its own rail. I might have to throw a flashlight on there just to be ridiculous. Edited June 15, 2010 by Saila Cilbup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrManiac Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Thats a nice bit of kit there but I don't like the extended dust cover design, should be flush, mmm now that would look nice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
