Lance Jackass Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Would it be possible to make a De Lisle Carbine? Im thinking TM colt.45 springer mags, original SMLE wood work, custom metal bolt and custom front end. How ould you make a bolt for it? Because the aps and vsr one dont look anything like it.

Antagon Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 www.securityarms.com/20010315/ galleryfiles/2300/2336.htm Shouldn't be TOO hard, the pistol mag would have to be a dummy mag though. Link to post Share on other sites
Lance Jackass Posted December 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 why a dummy mag? Link to post Share on other sites
Antagon Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 Cause theres no way you'll make it feed from that mag, look at the bolt action rifles out now, they all have the mag ALL the way up front...even the CAW M24 isnt close enough to the trigger guard for your purpose.

Catchv22 Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Or you could just custom build it from a Springer 1911. They don't need too much force to cock, but then again, they don't boast much power either. You're going to have to do a lot of custom work though. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Try Shoot and Skoot, they make Lee Enfields, which is what the De Lisle was based on. Link to post Share on other sites
Krazy L Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 My dad owns a real de lisle and man it is so sweet. you can only hear the bullet hit down range like a thud noise. After close examination you might try an aps2 modified to take 1911 mags and a custom wood stock. it would take a while but it is very possible. If you want a link to some modern makers of the de lisle try here. http://www.valkyriearms.com/delisle.htm Link to post Share on other sites
doc_newstead Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Never played 'No-One Lives...', but I first saw the De Lisle in a gun magazine a friend bought back from NYC (I asked him to get me something 'American' ), and loved it. As far as the article could tell me, it would be a real Hollywood weapon; sneak around in the dark, taking out the bad guys without a sound There's reason to believe that the SAS were using them as late as the Falklands as well. A cool gun. Krazy L: do you know what De Lisle your old man has? There were a small number of originals, but a lot of other spy shops built their own, and a British company still makes some now!

bullzebub Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 The easyest way is probably to make it a NBB ... using colt.45 (?) mags as reservoir ... Link to post Share on other sites
Catchv22 Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 I still say get a springer M1911, use the magazine and small cocking system on it and rig a bolt around that. If I had any parts I'd try the same as it seems like a nice simple project. Link to post Share on other sites
Lance Jackass Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Resurrecting the idea: So a TM colt .45 mag....custom bolt, front end and stock. The silencer doesnt need to actually silence though does it? Bearing in mind that actual silenced guns are about as loud as airsofts anyways. I reckon i could use the tm mag, just need to change the way it fits in the mag well. Surely the mag can be near the trigger guard if springer parts are used? I mean the bolt pull shouldnt be too hard right? cheers Lj Link to post Share on other sites
Catchv22 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Well depends on how far you'd want the barrel to go. Honestly, spring guns aren't that loud and foam can only muffle it. I'd tackle this project but I'm short on funds (like always). I'd take a super 9 (or perhaps rig up your own bolt) and build it around a Springer M1911 piston. You'd have to custom modify the springer's hop or build your own. Silencers are pretty easy to make, but you'd have to find an appropriate stock. Link to post Share on other sites
WMH Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 The pistol mag could be faked. Take a Tanaka Kar, M700 (or whatever) and cut it down. Stick part of a pistol mag on the bottom of the tanaka mag. Make custom wood furniture. Some aluminum tube (with or without baffles and or foam) for the front part. Custom bits would be needed for front and back of suppressor thing. Sights and sling mounts could possibly be sourced from existing parts. Those metal straps from sheet aluminum.. ?

Lance Jackass Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 I want this thing to feed through the mag though So if i got a TM colt .45, whacked in a 1 Joule spring and made all the parts metal it should take it? Link to post Share on other sites
Catchv22 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 If you made all the parts of reasonable quality metal, probably. However, that comes with a price... I'm guessing you could easily use some good quality springer internals (TM seems like the best) to make it shoot around 1J. Tightbore barrels and the like could be modified to fit as well. You've made me want to try my hand at this as well... Link to post Share on other sites
Lance Jackass Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Lol cheers. Im getting a tight bore made. Using a KWA hop up unit if i can source a glock one. The internals will be custom, along with the bolt parts. Woodwork will be original with original buttplate etc and the front end will be custom made tubing. Pictures are really hard to find though. Theres only 2 decent books with a de lisle in. One i own but the other is out of print and had some great pics in. Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 You might be able to find some pics on a real steel sites, as some company has recently started making copies of the DeLisle. Link to post Share on other sites
Lance Jackass Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Yeah ive seen that one kicking about. Im after some decent line drawings though. Il have to track down that book..... Link to post Share on other sites

joeking27 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 Ew. Okay so the original was ugly too, but it was still classy. Wood stock, iron sights. Link to post Share on other sites
ColSanders Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 Looking at this maybe an NBB would be best.. if you don't mind the mag being off a TM Mk23 would be good and instead of double action make it so the pulling the bolt back would just cock the hammer?

BigAl Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 Ew. Okay so the original was ugly too, but it was still classy. Wood stock, iron sights. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah but this is the obvious genesis of the design. It is after all mainly designed for sneaky stuff, so it needs to be compact and quiet. Might of been nice to of used a Sterling stock though as it was originally a British weapon. Link to post Share on other sites
