slu Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 RM: Â That's awesome. I really love your newest SVI build. I personally like silver 2011s better, especially with these new aluminum grips, but the black and gold are nice together. Â When I first saw those aluminum grips on the SVI website a few years back, I thought it would be nice if we had them for airsoft 2011s. When Prime finally turned up with them, I liked everything except the price! I really hate the plastic 2011 grips, the aluminum grips make the 2011s so much classier. I really would've liked to build an IED Hybrid SVI on one of these frames, but too many projects going on at once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 15, 2011 Report Share Posted October 15, 2011 Yes, and IED SVI is definitely something I want to build at some point.... Â I was going for a block cut 4.3 size gun, but didn't see any suitable kit, and the grip I bought just sit there and taunts me when its not built into a gun....

MrManiac Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Beautiful guns you have there 'RacingManiac' simply beautiful  Well here's my now rebuilt and refurbished replica of the Federal Ordnance PSP-07 pistol as used by Steven Segal in his film 'Marked for Death'.    Based on the TM 5.1 but with no aftermarket kits, just totally custom built.

Mobius Strip Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Well here's my now rebuilt and refurbished replica of the Federal Ordnance PSP-07 pistol as used by Steven Segal in his film 'Marked for Death'. Â Excellent work Mr Maniac, I've liked this gun and fancied building a replica myself for some time but it keeps going on the 'back burner'. Â Once again, good job Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrManiac Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 Thanks guys  The compensator is the front half of a 5.1 slide with a 5.1 /MEU night warrior hybrid barrel glued and pinned into it. The front of the comp has a muzzle made from a section of 4.3 barrel again glued and pinned. The guide rod is a custom made one, with the plug sleeved with a small section of copper pipe so the rod doesn't rattle around. The hardest part was getting it all to line up and not have the slide front hit the back of the comp. The slide has also had custom serrations added along with external extractors (fake obviously). Eventually I want to get the correct 'Pachmayr' style grips fitted, or custom make the standard ones to look like them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted October 27, 2011 Report Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) Maybe consider the TK Grip for Hi-Capa? They have that Pachmayr look to them...and they also have round trigger guard. Edited October 27, 2011 by RacingManiac Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Â Yeah ive got a set of those grips (good grips BTW) but they have to have the squared trigger guard as then it matches the film version. Thanks for the thought though 'RacingManiac'. Â Â Â My workhorse. Shame the thumb safety broke off... Â Â Now thats what I like to see. Not a 'safe queen' to quote RS parlence but a workhorse. Battered but unbeaten, nice one 'Zmarre'.

Smart pistol 'Jimmypie' Â Thanks MrManiac, that means alot from someone who produces "true customs", its my first Hi-Capa build, but not my last, ive already got a brand new TM5.1 in Black waiting in the wings, thinking of doing the the same build but in reverse two tone, but im unsure, theres so many parts to choose from, im really not a fan of "race guns",but i like them to shoot like one.

MrManiac Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks 'Jimmypie' for the compliment. Â Yeah, like you, im not a fan of the '2011 brigade' myself but some of the designs within this thread deserve a nod of appreciation from time to time for the work and love thats gone into them. For your first build im impressed. Â Sounds to me like you have caught the customizing bug if you already have another one on the go lol. Good luck my friend and when its finished we want to see the evidence Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RacingManiac Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Â Changed the front sight, the original ProG4 one is too low, the gun is shooting high even at the maximum compensation that rear sight can adjust to.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CplHicks Posted November 15, 2011 Report Share Posted November 15, 2011 My Nightwarrior parts have been posted so my Hicapa build is going on to the next level   Ive got a Nightwarrior slide and hammer coming, just need to find a suitable trigger.  I've also rounded and stippled the trigger guard so its more like a 1911. I didnt use a TK grip as I didnt like it. As the grip was stippled by the previous owner i'd grown attached to it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrManiac Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Nice choice of slide there 'Jimmypie'. I was tempted recently in getting a SFA V12 ported slide but other projects got in the way ...sigh! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Â Thanks, im pleased with the look, fitting however was a royal PITA, mainly getting the outer barrel running smoothly through it, just kept binding up, but its done and shoots nicely Quote Link to post Share on other sites
