1911 Posted September 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I'll trade it for a full metal m1911....doesn't have to be SCW. hehehe:) Heck i'll even grease it up for you for free..... Link to post Share on other sites
ZenMastaT Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Oh you. An entirely different note, what do you think of the new Colt Delta Elite put out by WA? Or that MEU(SOC) on the horizon? Link to post Share on other sites
skyler8158 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 (edited) I was interested in the MEU SOC....until I realized it DOES NOT come with Pachmyr grips. After that, it's just a Wilson CQB. The Delta Elites do look quite nice, but if(when) I get another WA 1911, it'll be a Premium Edition Series 70.

Catchv22 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I think MEU SOC and Delta Elites come with 6.03 tightbore barrels. Link to post Share on other sites
ZenMastaT Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I think MEU SOC and Delta Elites come with 6.03 tightbore barrels. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I heard the same thing actually, at least for the Colt Delta Elite. To me, the gun looks a little too bland, though I'd be interested to find out what those rubber looking grips feel like. Those MEU(SOC) grips sure do look like Pachymer, at least with that ridge in there and everything. I promised myself I wouldn't buy another single stack 1911 'till after I got the HRT Special. We'll see how well that holds up. In other news, I just noticed DEN Trinity has some metal slides out for those new SCW Infinities WA released not long ago. 6.0 SCW Infinity on green= Hardest kick ever, I'd hope?

skyler8158 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Those MEU(SOC) grips sure do look like Pachymer, at least with that ridge in there and everything. They are indeed advertised with Pachymer wrap around rubber grips, but upon reading the fine print... "Pachymer grip extra" Here is the gun as it will be sold: Link to post Share on other sites

Hope you like them! Edited September 17, 2004 by Russ Link to post Share on other sites
1911 Posted September 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 (edited) Oh you. An entirely different note, what do you think of the new Colt Delta Elite put out by WA? Or that MEU(SOC) on the horizon? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The MEU is the one I laid my eyes on.....Delta elite is too light for a SCW (857g compared to 1,010g-MEU SOC). the 6.03 barrel is nice...but then the problem with WA is that they cycle their model making it all pretty much the same gun...only minor differences with the markings. Any gun I'm getting next would be upgraded to full metal....has to be a single stack....with everything exactly the same as he real thing. Hammer, gripsafety, sights...everything. So MEU might b the next target. But how about this??? Edited September 17, 2004 by 1911 Link to post Share on other sites
MAKKOO Posted September 18, 2004 Report Share Posted September 18, 2004 Well the review is already on-line at RR Overall impressionsA definite must for airsofters who are into USMC impressions and spec ops. If you are hardcore about realistic impressions then WA MEU pistol should rank high in your list. For practical player, there are more long range and accurate gas blowback guns out there. As this is limited edition gun expect it to run out in a month or so, if not faster. At the business end of MEU pistol you can notice the plastic muzzle end. In the disassembly process this is hooked to the disassembly tool’s spikes and turned clockwise to remove it from locking position. Taking apart the WA MEU pistol reveals the body of the beast so to speak. Apart from the muzzle end that also works as a locking part there is recoil spring holder, recoil spring guide with rubber bearing, recoil spring, inner barrel covered with another barrel frame, chamber and hop up unit. The internals appear to been reinforced by the use of recoil spring holder and rubber bearing. Inner barrel is the new WA 6.03mm accuracy standard one. Link to post Share on other sites

Marcus Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 My Infinity Hybrid 1911IED: I apologise for the crappy photos, they were taken with a flash and at low-res. I'll take more pictures once I finish the pistol, I just need to find some grips for it! Any grip suggestions are welcome, I've been thinking about: Carbon Creations black-on-black dbl diamond (or smooth?) magwell cut Black smooth Alumagrips, magwell cut Silver smooth Alumagrips with custom engraving (but what to engrave?) Hakan Pek clear acrylic with back inlaid "something" ($100 bill is too cheesy, but what would be good?) Black VZ Paper Micarta What do you think? Link to post Share on other sites
1911 Posted September 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 Marcus; My suggestion is go to a woodman/carpenter and get them to make you your own custom made wood grip. Get it done without the diamond(or grid), it'll look sleeker. Get cheap or unused wood with lots of vains(??) Link to post Share on other sites
Marcus Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 (edited) 1911, I tried it with Hogue Cocobolo, Diamondwood and Goncalo, they all looked wrong. The Diamondwood looked the best, but not satisfactory I agree on the desire for sleekness, though, that's why I thought of smooth Carbon Creations or Alumagrips I just don't want to spend too much money ($80 for CC's, $55 for VZ's is a bit steep) since I actually don't like this pistol as much as I thought. I'll probably sell it off quite soon, but there's no point in having it look ###### in the meantime! M. Edited September 21, 2004 by Marcus Link to post Share on other sites
Wege Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 You were talking acrylic, why not get something that 'clashes' with the black: like red? OR a bronze (rather than gold) or a 'copper green' effect??.. Link to post Share on other sites
