Mike_West Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Hell's Bells. EG723 (front) and EG720 with EG724 kit (back) with swapped barrels (I put the black one from 724 kit on my more often used 723 as it looks better, well, apart from the "BARSTO .45" markings). Hogue grips on 724 are real-deal, a hand-me-down from my dad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Foxhound Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) Beautiful 1911, Jonny. You photo skills are phenomenal aswell! BUT, Those Kimber grips have to go. You should get the Springfield Logo wood ones. Would fit much better with a Springfield 191. Are they Kimber logo grips? Hard to read.

ruchik Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Oddly enough, those grips actually come with that gun. My roommate bought one, and it comes with the faux Pachmayrs that are identical to the Marui MEU ones and a pair of those wooden grips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonny Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 These wood grips say 'Kmeu' on them as they are just knock off Kimber wood grips. I'm going to leave them on until I can replace them with a more rich reddish brown grip panel. It contrasts nicely with the dazzling finish and black controls. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ERTrifleman Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Still just a stock SOCOM GEAR 1911 Desert MEU. I've been wanting to get some new grips for it but I really can't decide what. I've been looking for some replica Gunner grips stateside with no luck. Any recommendations on grips that don't cost half the price of the pistol itself would be great. Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't look like that's going to happen though, but I can't persuade myself to order $12 grips from Hong Kong and pay double, maybe triple the shipping to get here. . Maybe I can scrounge up some team mates to order with me though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SamJacksonFan Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 (edited) After finally putting together my Custom Marui/Koba TRP I picked up the newly released WETTI 1911 Knighthawk: Edited December 26, 2009 by SamJacksonFan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alston251 Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Looks nice. How does it perform? I'd rather they released a kit for Marui though. Would be a nice collector gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
halofanatic333 Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 My two WE 1911's The two-tone is a MEU I got in a trade. Switched barrels to make on all black, also used the wrap grip. The MEU has real wood grips. Sorry for the fuzziness, the camera blows. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SamJacksonFan Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 The Knighthawk performs suprisingly nice for a WE, I have to say. And I'm normally a WA- and Marui kind of guy, looking for details. I'm not convinced about details, here it is just a WE, but the finish is outstanding. Not that kind of paint that falls off just from looking at it. Hard anodized finish, really solid. But that's the benefit of WETTI, they are to WE what SCW is for WA in principle. Finish and rear sight are very good, rest isn't that outstanding, but performance is good due to this optimized high flow system and an out of box precission inner barrel. Very good bang for the buck. But I'll stick to customized Maruis and nice WAs, if I have a chance to get my hands on some models. But for gamers I guess a real serious option, if one likes the look of this golf ball thing. Fits the PDW GBB well that will come out soon. Kind a like the FN P90 with the Fiveseven.

alston251 Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Thanks, does it take Marui mags? I never really paid much attention to WE guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SamJacksonFan Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 Haven't tested it myself yet. But a friend of mine said, Maruis wouldn't fit. I'll give feedback when I've tested with 1911A1 mags and the mags from the Marui MEU. And yes, this is an unsusual WE. Hope, WETTI will do some more here. I think they already launched a copy of the Marui 4.3 Desert Warrior. It has this new high flow gas system but I can't say if the finish is robust WETTI style or standard WE and easy to scratch.

How well does the shell ejecting feature perform for you? -Piano Edited December 28, 2009 by PianoBlack Quote Link to post Share on other sites
