phoenix360mute Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 lovely grips, mine should come in a few days, and i will officially own the best 1911 ever lolz Link to post Share on other sites
Lithium Jack Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 (edited) Nice Gigascythe. Are they the real deal, or replica? Also, I've just realised how easy it would be to mod my FBI trial into the MGS3 M1911-A1... just needs a dual tone slide, silver controls, a suppressor, and it's good to go... everything else is more or less dead on. Awesome... I'm tempted to start building this soon-ish, actually, it'll be cheaper than I anticipated. And now for the noooooob question... will my wilson sights fit into the Kimber slide (cf Phoenix's 1911)? Edit: Damn... Edited September 6, 2006 by Lithium Jack Link to post Share on other sites

phoenix360mute Posted September 7, 2006 Report Share Posted September 7, 2006 (edited) you would be surprised, stupid *albatross* parcelforce, poweredge had the total value of the item, + shipping, so they charged me the customs charge for an item worth $100ish which is where i got screwed, and then they have their £13 handling feel aswell EDIT, not parcel force, UPS, i think Edited September 7, 2006 by phoenix360mute Link to post Share on other sites
