Romulus Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 amateurstuntman - Each of those guns is impressive on its own. Together they are quite amazing. Very nice work. It would be fun to see a size comparison picture like r.ocelot mentioned. Link to post Share on other sites
PxRxSxRx Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Some pictures of my WE M1911 with another I'm working on... I mixed and matched all of the parts for a couple of two toned pistols, now I think I'm going to paint some of my parts when I'm finished working on the other guys gun. I'm thinking I might paint the slide and controls black again, or perhaps gunmetal or something and leave the frame bare... any suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites
Mobius Strip Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Mobius, How do you find the Caspian parts? Do they compare to the newer gen of Prime kits, like the Hardballer? They are indeed of the previous generation without the nice-ities (stems instead of slots on plunger tube, radius had to be filed on the back of the slide for the hammer etc), but fit and finish was good and I certainly didn't experience any out of spec parts on this kit, which is always the big worry).

amateurstuntman Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 There you go: 4013 with the Detonics. A "compact" 9mm made to look fat and ungainly by a .45... Detonics with the MK23 The MK23 is just ridiculous, yes it has a bigger mag capacity but good god. It's huge. Detonics porn: Prime Browning MKIII in the background Arm and a leg? Yes, I'm frightened to work it out but I have 6 mags for them so we are looking at about 900 quid so far, once they are finished the pair of them would go in the now dead 1K club. eeesh. Detonics combat masters SD: classic upper classic lower classic barrel Hammer Nine ball Recoil rods PDI: Plug Sear 6.01 barrel Guarder recoil spring Polished original grip safety thing and plunger tube Need: Stainless Steel safety Stainless Steel Slide stop Black steel MSH Hammer spring Black steel rear sight None of those are out yet Stainless RS mag release RS pachmayr classic grips On back order. No messing, I have been waiting to be able to build these since I got into airsoft. These are my absolute favourite RS weapons, no exceptions. They will be built with love.

BigAl Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 4013 with the Detonics. A "compact" 9mm made to look fat and ungainly by a .45... How aye man 4013, the clue's in the name .40 S & W not 9mm. Lovely guns, you need to get a twin horizontal shoulder rig for them. HOw much did they cost you? Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Well, .40 is 10 and a bit and the frame is the same size as the 9mm frame. But yes, I made a boo boo. Cost, well I'm sacred but about £900 for both. I might get the double alessi on the go, in a while when the guns are finished. It will look the dog's danglies. Link to post Share on other sites
r.ocelot Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Stunt, Thanks for the comparison pics. Since both of them are FM, which do you think kicks harder? The TSW or the shorty .45? Mobius, Do you know if the kit is hard anodized, or does it have the weird finish like their TSW and older Raptor kits. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 The WA kicks a bit harder for now since I have tinkered with the hammer spring. I will probably run the Detonics on red gas if the piston head can cope with it, that'll sort it out. Link to post Share on other sites
happy.al Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Hi Stunt, Gotta say that you pistol looks great, just about the best 1911 I've seen. Looks to be well worth the cash you've spent on it Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Will definately have to have a couple when work picks up. Link to post Share on other sites
Mobius Strip Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 Mobius, Do you know if the kit is hard anodized, or does it have the weird finish like their TSW and older Raptor kits. It's anodised, but I must say I have never seen a TSW or 1st generation Raptor kit in the flesh so cannot compare it directly with those. Link to post Share on other sites
hkssr20det Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I will probably run the Detonics on red gas if the piston head can cope with it, that'll sort it out. They absolutely love the stuff. I can actually empty a mag on red. If I wasn't so worried about breaking a piston that I can't replace yet, I would only shoot mine on red.
