mr eagle Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Also a quick question. In the pic of the frame/slide in the box there is a poly bag in the bottom right hand corner containing the sites and a copper colour square. What is this for?? Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 It clips the blowblack chamber into the slide. Link to post Share on other sites
mr eagle Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Ta for that. Its not needed though is it? Just my Prime MEU does'nt have it installed and still works fine. Would it be advisable to install it or just leave it off as all is well? Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 yeah, I'd like to know too, perhaps it is essential to compacts. Neither the Kimber nor the Springfield which I took apart had any parts holding the blowback mech in. cheers. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hey fellow 1911 fan's, I need a bit of advice. Does anyone make a CNC'd from billet ally frame for a 1911, not cast then CNC'd. It needs to be ally welded for what I have in mind. A high quality blank slide would also come in handy, come to think of it the frame needs to be blank as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Would it be advisable to install it or just leave it off as all is well? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well my Prime MEU has it installed. There should be no reason not to have installed, unless you plan on removing the blowback chamber from the slide at some point in the future, as it's pretty difficult to pop out the chamber over the clip. You may aswell install it IMO. I have a Shooters Design slide which has a loose blowback chamber and it works fine, so you can carry on using without the clip if you really want and it doesn't bother you. yeah, I'd like to know too, perhaps it is essential to compacts. Neither the Kimber nor the Springfield which I took apart had any parts holding the blowback mech in. cheers. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The copper clip is only present in Prime kits to my knowledge.

A high quality blank slide would also come in handy, come to think of it the frame needs to be blank as well. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I would have thought all the top manufacturers like PGC, Prime and Shooters Design would be completely milled. For blank slides and frames you may get lucky with a Sheriff one if you can find one. I think there are others but only in Japan. Guarder have their blank TM 1911 kit, but its most likely cast. Your not thinking of doing something like this are you ? I went to an engravers just last week trying to guage the cost. Link to post Share on other sites

jordan2139 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 hey mathub, i'm purchasing a pgc marsoc kit for my kimber. i was wondering is the pgc kit hard to install? would it work with a scw3 gun? and i'm buying the kit and a shooters design steel marsoc chamber for 300 USD is that a good deal? thanks for all the help. Link to post Share on other sites
Mathub Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Well, PGC kits are pretty easy to fit. Like prime's. Hitman, did you get the one piece steel barrle with your kit ? I've got some funds, so I think I'm gonna get an ultra compact. And sell my old metal slide and frame. Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) not before me you don't Mathub, you've got the GSR and Wilson Professional Silver with metal kits right? Are they as nice as they look in pictures? how do they shoot? cheers. edit - actually while I'm here, can you tell me how the V10 performs? I'd assume similar to the Defender, snappy recoil and fps around 240 on 134a.. can you give me a little rundown ? there's a +1 in it for all your hard work Edited December 10, 2006 by hardboiledcop Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hitman, did you get the one piece steel barrle with your kit ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I certainly did, its inside the slide in my pic. Link to post Share on other sites
Mathub Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) Well, I don't have a wilson pro in metal. My gsr runs nice and performs like any scw2. The V10 has a good recoil but lacks some range and fps due to small barrel. Hitman, how is your prime front sight ? Like any other 1911 front sigth, or does it screw onto the slide ?

hardboiledcop Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 cheers mate.. i hated the gsr at first but its definately growing on me.. and itll good to have one railed 1911.. since i think the kimbers are too pretty without rails to get a railed one Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) Mathub, for the V10? I don't appear to have a front sight ######. I didn't even notice until you just brought it up. Boom Arms picture it with one, but WGC doesn't. I just sent Boom Arms an e-mail and ask for a replacement. Although after looking at the front sight on the Boom Arms kit, its a dovetailed one, whereas the hole in the slide is for a stake on one. Oh well, maybe you just use the one from the donor gun?

Mathub Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Well, that's why I asked. Because I saw a dovetail one in the kit of boomarms or wgc, don't remember. But, I have a V10 as a donor, so no problem for me. Link to post Share on other sites
mr eagle Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hmm ta for the advice hitman. I think i may keep it out of the slide for now as i occasionally have to tighten my sights though when i replace them next year i may use the tab then. Going along the lines of someone a few posts ago will the GSR SCW v3 fit into the prime frame?? Hardboiledcop-the GSRs are very nice, i hate two tone guns (due to glocks) and could'nt stop myself from buying it with the intention of adding a flashlight to it. Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) never mind, got the wrong end of the stick.. they obviously just shoved a dovetail sight in the pic for some reason. hbc. Edited December 10, 2006 by hardboiledcop Link to post Share on other sites

Rix Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Does somebody of you guys know whether the TM M1911 A1's (in standard/stock condition) have the same dimensions (length/width/height) as the original real steel M1911 A1's? because I couldn't find the width and height of the TM standard M1911 A1. thanks in advance, greets rick Link to post Share on other sites
