oh wow..... i'm 3 clicks away from buying a 1911

RacingManiac August 13th, 2008 21:17

I am just gonna post these here....

Nothing changed on my 1911, though I have the MEU mags coming and a pair of rosewood stippled grip made for a 1911 with magwell. If that works out I might just sell the Pachmayr....

I did get delivery of a KSC USP .45, with Creation slide and barrel(bought used on Arnie's). The quality of the slide+barrel is very good, I never had the pleasure of using SD's kit outside of Hi-Capa, so I can't compare with those, but my old USP Compact had Zeke slide+barrel and those were about on par with the Creation.

So my MEU mags showed up....they are made with different feeling material to the normal 1911 mags, and the finish is like a brushed metal finish....I bought them mainly because I don't want to use the glue on Wilson Combat bumper, and I like silver mags, especially sanded regular TM 1911 mag does not work out to look nicely....

My god, man. That is just sexy.

how are the MEU mags gas wise, can they hold more then regular 1911 mags?

Lakonian August 15th, 2008 18:49

couldn't tell you, I have yet to grab my AI propane adaptor from home...lol

My guess its not likely, since its not that much bigger in any case....the bumper seems rather like a new cap on the old mag, so I am guessing the capacity doesn't change much, though TM is rating the new mag to carry 28bbs instead of 26...

R1Style August 15th, 2008 19:22

you're 1911 looks amazing.

Question... did you actually order stuff off http://www.x-fire.org ???? Did you have any problems ordering stuff and having it shipped?

RacingManiac August 15th, 2008 19:29

I ordered the comp and hammer off x-fire.org, since none of those are restricted items I'd imagine US and Canada are the same deal. I didn't have any problem with them...

R1Style August 15th, 2008 19:54

thanks man.
I was at the check out page and everything was in japanese... I wanted to make sure it was ok before i went ahead and bought something.
:D

One last question... what did they charge you for shipping? There are no shipping charges.... :confused:

RacingManiac August 15th, 2008 20:19

did you go to their english(engrish?) page?

Its Paypal, I think they send you an invoice first then you paypal them the money...

R1Style August 16th, 2008 09:23

ya i went to the engrish page and started to fill it out but then i gave up...
I'll probably make the order later on next week.

Andres August 16th, 2008 11:22

So hot D;

The Nova MSH with integrated magwell was something I was looking into myself. It somehow doesn't look just quite the way I thought it would. Maybe it's just the mismatch in colour like you said.

Either way, very nice guns, I'm glad I found this post while putting together my 1911 project. I guess I'll re-evaluate my plans for the 7th time and hopefully get it going sometime soon.

RacingManiac August 17th, 2008 20:09

it's also the grips I think. Most 1911 grip you can buy are not made for magwell, meaning they have a chamfered bottom edge. For magwell you need to find grips that are made for that. They have a straight cut along the bottom edge so theoretically the grip and the magwell will fit flush, and no gap inbetween like mine....

As I've said I am waiting for a new pair of grips to show up...when they do I'll post pics.....
