icolater Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Was it easy to instal? I find they jam on my nova kits and I resort to steel barrels and chambers that rattle a bit. How do you fit them without jamming? File the bit that interacts with the hop housing on the right side? Or file the lugs in the slide? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wolfgeorge Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) Well the Nova Raptor was the first "new style" kit ( the ones with the advanced frame and fake firing pin stetup) I got.It's was pretty smooth when I finished but I usually round the edges of the barrel lugs, from my experience the slides are become smoother .The Raptor was fairly good, so does the S70 but both SAI's (commander and 5inch ) required some filling here ans there, nothing hard but you had to pay attention here and there. The silver I got last summer is the worst.. i haven't fixed it yet to be honest! :shutup: Wolf Edited January 31, 2017 by wolfgeorge Quote Link to post Share on other sites
icolater Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 Nice thanks Wolfgeorge ! I'll try smoot out the barrel lugs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gunnman Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 (edited) While I'll never have the money again to build an high end 1911, here's a mock up of my current build of my Colt 38 super. Real EGW Gold Cup trigger required a boat load of fitting . While I'll never have the money again to build an high end 1911 ever again, here's a mock up of my current build of my Colt 38 super.

Gunnman Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 is that a real commander? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quiksilver6184 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Yeah, picked it up a few weeks ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wingman Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Loving the Commander. I mean I love them all, but that Commander is what I've been waiting years for. I'm super envious as I've not been able to find a kit anywhere and is in the top 5 of my favorite pistols. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 You could try and track down a WA. Or a Marushin or MGC model gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wingman Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 I've tried and have had no luck. I also would like to use the TM/KJW format as I've such a ready supply of parts and magazines and I shoot these things a lot (thankfully I have a large back yard that is backed by heavily wooded, non-buildable lot which makes this possible), so I need something that can take the pounding.

quiksilver6184 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Same here, I would love a marui based commander with novaks. Hopefully Nova will maybe release a kit eventually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Commander kit should be due for release shortly, but initial batch will be steel-slide version only. Aluminium kit will follow later... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
