MrManiac Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) My latest project now complete...NightHawk 'Lady hawk'. TM 4.3 slide mated to a TM 1911a1 frame with a few 'tweaks'. The front strap texturing was a pain to do and failed to go as I'd of liked but its as near to RS as I can get. The grips are from the Talon/MEU pistol released by Redwolf recently. All internals are standard TM. The build details are now up on my YouTube site. Edited December 22, 2011 by MrManiac Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hwagan Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 (edited) It wins so, so, so much. The kit is almost perfect - The only thing it lacks is the checkering on the underside of the trigger guard, but I can live without that. All I need to do now is spend far too much money on a Nova Kimber grip safety and it's as close to the R/S as I can possibly make it without checkering the trigger guard somehow! *edit* Should also mention the full length guide rod and correct hammer were added extras - So the kit is bang on, except for the trigger guard checkering, and not including the correct hammer, grip safety or guide rod - But as far as I'm aware none of the other HurricanE kits come with hammers, grip safeties or guide rods, so I knew I'd have to spend extra on those anyway.

hwagan Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 does she shoot as good as she looks? Dont go dremmeling again mate........ Believe me I've learnt the lesson! I've kind of had the same epiphany I had not too long ago with M4's - No matter what I buy, I always go back to an M4... Same has happened with 1911's, and this is about the nicest 1911 I've ever seen! And yep, it shoots like a stock TM on a room temperature mag - I've got meself a Tactical Tailor mini mav to carry mags under a fleece to keep them warm in the winter.

bladerunner168 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 I wants it I was on the Elite site last week, very nearly called Mike and placed the order, but I had just bought a MK14 so another £454 was out of the question. His Kimber Desert Warrior looks pretty tasty too...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Damn you, I was so tempted by this the other day but if I can scrape it with monies after christmas I think I'm going to get an AS Hurricane SIS instead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 The HurricanE kits really are something special - The markings and the detailing are amazing. A friend of mine has the SIS, and it's equally nice. I'd spent a few weeks looking at kits for TM 1911's before this arrived, and I couldn't quite decide - As soon as I saw this get released it was love at first sight Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tarr Posted December 28, 2011 Report Share Posted December 28, 2011 Loving that MEU TeowneD. How do you holster it with the light attached if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sunshine Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Tarr, Safariland used to make a 6004 that will house a weapon with a 310, and 610. I don't remember the exact model number, but I am sure a few of the members do. Also, their are new holsters that can be adjusted to house weapons with various lights. Also, you can make your own with kydex. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Payne06 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Tarr, Safariland used to make a 6004 that will house a weapon with a 310, and 610. I don't remember the exact model number, but I am sure a few of the members do. Also, their are new holsters that can be adjusted to house weapons with various lights. Also, you can make your own with kydex. The models were: 6004-533-121 (black, right hand, 310R) 6004-536-121 (black, right hand, 610R) I also happen to know that 6004-731-121 (fits Beretta M9 with 633R) will also fit a 1911 with a 610R or 310R. I know, because I have 3 of these holsters and 2 Surefires, a 310R and a 610R If you notice, the holster this Marine is wearing is NOT a 6004-536-121. It is actually a 6004-731-121.

TeowneD Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 I only use that 310r repro for pistol only games, so i dont actually have that safariland model, i only have one for a railed 1911 with an M3 light....which wont fit because this is a nonrail 1911; so as of now i run a serpa for it. -brendan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trdsupragt Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 It's taken me a very long time (a few years) to finally get this real 310R going. Kept putting it off but finally finished this MEU project today. I'm quite happy and can't wait to field it again. I recently ordered an LED module to replace that sad little incan bulb that originally came with it. So from the original 60 lumens, I'm now at 300 lumens at the bezel. The last photo is with my Operator with SureFire x200. Hope you guys like the photos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blingblip Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 tm night warrior? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hwagan Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Looks like an Army Kimber Warrior... TM Nightwarrior has a grey frame and 'Nightwarrior custom' on the slide in the same style as the Kimber logo. How is the Army Warrior anyway sunburnt? For $70 it's pretty tempting...

harborne blue Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 It's a Kimber like mine. Very nice gun for the money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yoggi Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Not as beautiful as the other posted. But since mine runs on CO2 it is impossible to add the magwell 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mrcheetos Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Details on it? I have a KJW 1911, and I've been looking to replace the body.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fiddlesticks4220 Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 My question to the Army Kimber owner, if the Army were 150 USD instead of 90, would you still take it over a TM if you had to do it again? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
