bradnuts Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 The Talon has a Guarder steel Nowlin type barrel. I removed the black finish and gave it a brushed stainless look. The bushing is a real one made by EGW. It's a set that comes with the recoil spring plug. The Bureau Model has the same Guarder barrel setup. The bushing is a Nova. I can't recall which version. The ICQB has a Shooters Design chamber and barrel with a Nova bushing as well. The Operator has a Guarder chamber with a Shooters Design bull barrel. I did both in armor black Cerakote.

Squad 701 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I eventually got rid of the supplied Nova aluminium barrel that came with the Colt Combat Commander kit, It wasn't designed very well as the barrel bushings ate into the chamber lugs, unless of course you take a couple of millimetres off your barrel bushing. I eventually got Nick Hulme @ Magic 9 to cut a Shooters Design 5" stainless-steel barrel down to size, and matched it up with a Colt 45 Auto SD barrel chamber. I just took a few quick shots, but had to use the flash, so any reflection you see off the barrel or chamber is from a light layer of silicon oil being reflected. Cheers. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Squad 701 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 This INO 'Series 70' has been in the pipeline since 2010, the original plan was for the GM, Series 70 Stainless then Blued. It looks like Redwolf and CRW are putting out teasers for a Stainless Steel version, as far as I know it's harder to get the blued-finish correct on the steel version, and this is probably what most people would be interested in. I think before parting with money you'd have to see some decent HD footage, if you pause the CRW video you'll notice the MSH fit looks similar to their previous release which was a bit sloppy, but it could be an advanced prototype which would explain the wear under the BBU. Either way a true blued steel 'Series 70' if done correctly would be awesome, but INOs previous release left a lot of people disappointed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Desert.Express Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hope the Inokatsu Colt 70 won't be more expensive than 900$, that would be fine for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BigAl Posted May 14, 2014 Report Share Posted May 14, 2014 Anyone know where I could get some Colt M45a1 Grips? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squad 701 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Anyone know where I could get some Colt M45a1 Grips? Hey Big Al, The best you could do is try these VZ Grips, there are options for thumb-notch or super-scoop. There are some variations in detail, they could be brighter or even identical. Remember the Colt version comes with FDE coloured flat-head screws, so if you want to imitate that you may need bushings supplied just in case. https://vzgrips.com/gun-grips/1911/diamond-backs/diamond-back-marsoc-g10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Colouration on them is differant probably the closest i'll get though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Squad 701 Posted May 15, 2014 Report Share Posted May 15, 2014 Colouration on them is differant probably the closest i'll get though. Like I mentioned and they state on the website there is variation in colour, when I got my VZ Grips for a Costa Build I made, the pair I received were exactly what I was hoping for originally, better looking than the ones advertised on the website. Your only other option is to check out what grips are on the 10:8 website by Hilton Yam, they too had a very similar variation a few months back, possibly the same grips OEM'd.

TheFull9 Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 Finally found a very good bloke to machine down the screws for the Hurricane Kimber. Had to go for a work theme given the work VZ did for me. Apparently I'm a massive cabbage... Also really need to break out the duster before the macro lens. That said it'll be getting skirmished and jammed in to a kydex holster plenty from this point forward so it's not going to look pretty again, specially with the paint they use. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PureSilver Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Ah, and they've already sold out of the ones I wanted... Judging by the presentation boxes, I'd say it looks like these, the full-size SVI they're doing and the Inokatsu P229 all came out of the same factory. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Horsem4n Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) i hate it when people normally say stuff like this, but thats a lot for a pistol when you (well, us 'mericans) can get a real one for under half that price. but it must be one hell of a shooter once you also add Volante's Merlin BBU.

wolfgeorge Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Well that's the gun ... And yes these are the same guys tha that make the Ino P229 kit. Horseman.. Try geting a permit for a real gun in EU.. Well in Greece at least! It's a hefty price I know but it's the easier way to obtain one of these. Wolf Quote Link to post Share on other sites
