Guarder Buttpad. Airsoft Artisan Flash hider and suppressor. Begadi DIS Spare barrel and frontsight chopped by Jim at LCs Engineering outpost. Have kept the originals should I ever wish to change it all back. USGI 'silent sling' Also a big thanks to AlphaBear for talking me out of selling this last year! I know my MWS is gucci'd up but I do love the classic look. My WE M4 basically looked like that the 2 or so years I used it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post frontsight Posted March 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 5, 2022 (edited) Any 1911 fans out there? Here's the latest build that I tried. It won't be replacing my glock for skirmishes anytime soon, but a cool build nonetheless.. Did you know people do bowling with 1911's? Apparently it's called "pin shooting" and there are specific styles of 1911's catered to that. Here's the post that inspired this build -> https://www.thearmorylife.com/bowling-with-a-pistol-a-guide-to-pin-shooting/ Wanted to get a short compensator like the real-steel examples in the article, but couldn't find any similar so I went with a 45" muzzle chamfer instead. With the looser tolerances of airsoft it doesn't look as blended to the bushing as RS, but I think I like it. I had to learn the hard way that stainless takes a lot longer than you think to grind out using hand tools...😅 In certain angles it makes the bore of the outer barrel look bigger than it actually is some real-steel examples that I referenced: Edited March 5, 2022 by frontsight Pinovic, Tactical Pith Helmet, johnnyj and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might get some extra mags and try it out as well.. tbh I wish companies made aftermarket steel inner frames for the 1911 like they do for marui glocks; even with the aluminum kit and stainless parts it's ~.8 kg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The base gun was a TM MEU. I used the frame of a springfield MEU kit from Guarder, and the slide is a hi capa 5.1 slide also from Guarder. I wanted to have the adjustable hi capa sights on a 1911 frame, along with rear-only slide serrations like a SA range officer. Rest of the parts are a mix of AM, Guarder, and Nova Edited March 5, 2022 by frontsight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PopRocket123 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Just thought I'd dress it up with bits I've already got. It needs a bigger scope, a more solid bipod and to get rid of the red paint. Then I think I just need a stronger spring and a couple of spare mags and it's ready to go to a game. frontsight, RostokMcSpoons, Skullchewer and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But concentrating on replacing some fittings and sorting the wood colour first. The 303 was the first gun I handled, shot and learned to field strip at school, but ours were more of a mid oak sort of colour so aiming for that. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224650458459?hash=item344e35f55b:g:To0AAOSwm3ZgAXP1 Thats the unissued Brit ones.

Oh don't get me wrong, I've bought dozens of Rifs over the years, I just don't collect them. I'll get something new and sell the old one. Most I've had at any one time (nit including pistols) is maybe 4. That being said, I'm sorely tempted to get an M41a 😍 EDcase 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
