Horsem4n Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) lol, is that an EBB? i have been hoping for a long time that TM would release a full GBB version of that 1911. Edited May 4, 2013 by Horsem4n Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alfer Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 Yea, it is. I was surprised at the weight of it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
volante Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I think that's name is probably 'Centimeter Master'. I saw it on airsoft shop in my country when i was middle school student lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
k30dxedle Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yep, it's the Marui "Centimeter Master." Incidentally, does anyone know if the parts exist to make it based off a TM 1911-pattern full GBB? I've always liked the look of it after seeing it in a TM catalog eons ago. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Pretty much except for the parts with "10mm Auto" markings on them. The biggest nose bleeder would be that frame with a squared off trigger guard: http://www.redwolfairsoft.com/redwolf/airsoft/Accessories_Metal_Bodies_Slides_GBB_Airsoft_Surgeon_Limted_Single_Stack_TM_1911_Frame_Squre_Trigger_Guard_Silver.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I recall playing around with an old NBB one of those. It was awful but a design that really TM should do in GBB, like that old Hardballer model they did. Now to finally get back in my office, get my phone cable and put my pics up.

PureSilver Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Anyone see what I have done? Neglected to seek help? Switched the slides on the Detonics...s? (What is the plural of Detonics?) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) Neglected to seek help? Switched the slides on the Detonics...s? (What is the plural of Detonics?) Detonics', but pronunced Detonics-es (as in the plural of James and such words that already end in an 's' that don't have an 'i' ending plural) . Seek help, why oh why would I do that . I clearly don't have enough classic looking 1911s or pistols in general for that matter . 'FireKnife' Edited May 8, 2013 by FireKnife Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 That stainless Detonics, I can hear it calling out to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 It is, get one . Though it is stock TM and the finish looks good but quite flat. Wish it was shinier but can't have everything. 'FireKnife' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aitch Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Mr Cripps received my Nova Springfield V12 kit today, I'm looking forward to getting this one in my hands, I just need to decide on what grips it needs, I got a nice set of POW-MIA grips from a nice ebay vendor this week when I got in my 'bone' springfield grips for my operator LDC, it looks rather nice, pics shall follow Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steinarsen44 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 So many awesome pistols!Here is my TM MEU. Its holding up like a champ! I took the rail off after i took that picture. Did not like it at ALL. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aitch Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Much more to my liking tomorrow (11th) or Monday for my V12 :0 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Very nice, though never been a fan of railed 1911s myself. Hows the kit work on it, well or needs work? 'FireKnife' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kenxin Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 It's a nova so it should be....fairly good.....ok, excellent. Not a fan of those grips, I prefer the wood SFAs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aitch Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 What he said, V12 with free grips it marks so easily, it's nice like, a worthy addition. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureSilver Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Why the Nova, rather than the Shooters Design? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aitch Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Why not? anyway I've seen SD slides and outer barrels but never full kits, having been lazy and getting Mike Cripps to build it for me, thank god as Nova have changed their kits a bit and it was more work than previous models, "bit of a pig" was his his wording, but I wont go into it as I don't do reviews Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 The new Nova kits look lovely, especially the Series 70. Fake sprung firing pins e.t.c. Tempting me from WA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aitch Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 I'm waiting to grab a S70 kit if one appears, too poor at the moment but fake the firing pin looks great but Mike had to cut back and reprofile the BBU to do the build, so a bt more faff with thease, the barrel paint is pish too, it's wearing through after a mag.

Squad 701 Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 The new Nova kits look lovely, especially the Series 70. Fake sprung firing pins e.t.c. Tempting me from WA. Yes, considering what was being charged back in the day for a Prime 'Series 70' kit for WA with blued finish, another trip to the bank-manager was needed. The new Nova Series 70 for TM is very good value, I was really surprised at the quality of the finish for the price. No major problems building the kit, just one of the prongs at the rear of the BBU need to be cut-off and filed, as the space is needed for a small bar that holds the fake firing-pin in, this in turn is held in place by the extractor which is tightened in with a tiny hollow hex-screw.

I have no clue as to why they did it like that. Hurricane has a separate extractor and the design doesn't need any adjustments to the BBU.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hurricane has a separate extractor and the design doesn't need any adjustments to the BBU.... The main difference here being that when you install a fake firing-pin, you use the hex-screw that also tightens the BBU, but on the Nova the fake firing-pin is not held in by the hex-screw, it is held in by the extractors pressure on a small-bar on the fake firing-pin plate. This may be a good thing as many of you people out there who custom-build there own 1911s know that sometimes you have to loosen the hex-screw on the BBU for fine-tunng.
