I am going to guess ~$1000-$1200.....

Up here the TM 1911 would be roughly 350 to start with... That metal kit would be roughly 350-400... Comp set is roughly 300 too... I don't even know what upgrades you have in there...

I'd guess that gun you've got there would have cost you closer to 2000 in Canada.

On top of that, all his other GBBs and including his sexy TM Hi-Capa! :(

That thing isn't TM anymore...

It's closer to a Airsoft Surgeon custom than it is to a TM lol...

hmm...thats why I don't keep track of the spending....since I DID get the 1911 when I was in Canada($330 from Marksman). $probably closer to $280 US for the kit, $200+ for the controls(combine the shipping for those 2), ~$250 for the comp and the hammer, $100 for outer barrel+ chamber(though they are spare from Hi-Capa), ~$70 for misc parts(Piston, POM kit, springs), $40 for the grips...plus shipping for all the stuff....probably $1400 USD overall....so my guess wasn't that off, in US funds....lol

now the Hi-Capa, thats a mess, since I basically went through twice the cost since 2 guns were built on it....and I just ordered more parts for it(grip, magwell, controls)....I don't think I'll sell it ever since I'll never even come close to recover the cost....

Awesome. My 1911 got stuck through customs in my country (wait! Dont ban me! Im also a Canadian! :D), so gonna go and pick it up tomorrow.

BTW, couldnt reach your Arnie's Gallery, broken link or something?

Arnies is experiencing server issues with their forum and other crap....so I am pretty sure thats related....

Ok. Im always hungry for 1911 airsoft related stuff :P

wait wait wait. you ordered your 1911, from out of the country, into canada? Most likely confiscated, I don't understand what you mean by going to pick it up...

nah man. I live in Turkey. I ordered from ehobbyasia.
I bought the National Match custom.

oOooo, nice pick

Thanks :P

But due to our customs "problems" I couldnt acquire my beloved M1911A1 :(
Will try again on Monday.

I'm hopping that doesn't mean 'im going to order it again'...

No! :D
In Turkey you have to do some paperwork, and actually open the gun up to show them that its a toy(sorry, airsoft) and that it cant fire bullets.
I dont know how its done in Canada tho.

Got mine from customs today. Very solid piece. Worth every penny. I'll start customizing next month or so :D
