Romulus Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 Thanks. I honestly haven't done any research into grip safeties, I was just responding to birchm's comments earlier in the thread. Good to know that there are no easy options though. I may have to see if someone would mod one for me. Shame that you are moving on from your silver 1911. It was one of the big factors that inspired me to go for a silver 1911. Really one extraordinary gun. Link to post Share on other sites

junior Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Oooo. Nice. I assume thats the newer release of the Raptor kits? It's dosent look as shiny HBC's raptor... Very nice indeed.... I wish I could get my hands on a Ultra Raptor kit. Man how I would love one of those... Link to post Share on other sites
hkssr20det Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Looks good, but in the pics it looks more Parkerized than black. Trick of the lighting? Rom - I am fitting a Wilson Combat beaver tail soon, I'll let you know how it turns out. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Yep, it's the new Prime Raptor kit on a SWAT Custom II with some real steel Raptor grips (thanks hardboiledcop) It's definitely black, as you say hkssr20det, it's the lighting. Link to post Share on other sites

Romulus Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Rom - I am fitting a Wilson Combat beaver tail soon, I'll let you know how it turns out. I'll be very interested to see how that turns out. Also, the comped Delta Elite looks pretty awesome. I slapped a PDI comp on mine the other day so I could see how it handled with a 7 inch barrel. I may post up a few pictures later just for fun. Link to post Share on other sites
hkssr20det Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 I'll be very interested to see how that turns out. The Wilson order just shipped so it's gonna be a few. Now I just need to find a stupid PDI Comp outer barrel. The thing costs as much as the comp.... Link to post Share on other sites
RockDog Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Looks like I will be keeping my eyes on this project, good luck Link to post Share on other sites
Romulus Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 It was just too much of a coincidence that hkssr20det posted comped Delta Elite pictures on the same day that I tried out my 7 inch PDI in my Delta Elite. Heres a few pictures, not as nice as hkssr20det's but still doesn't look bad. I was favorably impressed by the casual 10m grouping (from shooting four or five different sets) I happened to pull off while dialing in my hop-up. (as you should be able to see I was slowly turning it down). Defiantly like the 7 inch PDI .01. This picture was a bit of a mess up but I liked the abstract look when I washed it through photo shop... Link to post Share on other sites
the4thpower3 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 HKS - your delta looks sweet! I love the comp. How well does the black finish on th PDI comp match the slide? Romulus - Always trying something new - I like it...but the black comp looks a little strange on the grey/silver finished slide. Link to post Share on other sites
hkssr20det Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 The black is a pretty good match, but the lines don't match up as well as one would hope. It doesn't look bad though. Just heard from Davedawg how much work the beavertail is going to be....not too excited about that. Link to post Share on other sites
Romulus Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 The good new is that this was just a whim, the comp os going back on my Hi-Capa as soon as my new slide/barrel show up. Bummer about the beaver tail. It would be nice if someone would start making affordable airsoft ones. Link to post Share on other sites
davedawg123 Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'll be very interested to see how that turns out. Other than just about everything... like this maybe? Apologies for the poor lighting. No clouds in several weeks. Must learn to rain dance. Link to post Share on other sites
Guinness Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Very very very very nice Dave! ...Did I say very nice? because I meant to say verrry nice! Slainte! Link to post Share on other sites
Clockwork_O Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 WOW Dave I'm glad to see some other 1911 variants and that 70 series is so stunning. My opinion: You definitly have a unique 1911 Greetings Link to post Share on other sites
RockDog Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 very nice dave Link to post Share on other sites
TheLair Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 It looks great as is, but I would love it with more modern sights on it. Beautiful job as always Link to post Share on other sites
