1911 pics
Almost done, just waiting to get some engraving done. And if anyone knows what Recoil Spring Guide will fit a WE1911, that would be helpful.

very nice!!
|
what did you do for the finish? Looks very good....
|
That is THE single most sexy peice of metal and wood i have EVER seen!
|
It looks awesome. What did ya do to it to get it to shine like that?
|
Thanks.
The finsh was done with 180 grit sandpaper and a wire brush with a dremel tool to remove the paint. then I wet sand it with 320 and 600 grit sandpaper, and polish with number 6 cleaning & polishing compound from canadian tire. |
Nice job!
As for the recoil spring guide it just sits in there loosely, so there's a few options. I managed to use a WA and RS part, and Marui ones should work too (as long they aren't the full length variants). Personally I kept the stock one, chopped off ~3-5mm from the tip and rounded it off with a dremel (grinder), sanded, polished; keeps the guide from breaking the recoil spring plug and bushing. |
how is the finish holding up? I imagine that is some sort of pot-metal which will tarnish over time?
|
yes It does tarnish pretty quick.
when it does I clean it with bluemagic metal polish. |
shiney :)
|
you inspired yourself from Krame's? Very nice mate
|
What's that trigger?
|
Well done man, the chrome sexes it up.
|
Very nice, congrats man.
|
Beautiful gun.

It's a nova trigger from redwolf airsoft, but I had to mod it a bit to make it fit.
|
That is hot. Wowwww
|
Very nice gun guys, I also got one 1911, I think it's not totally same with yours, but... just for fun, :D

Just from the angle, or because the knife is there, that 1911 looks small to me.

an amaising gun dude. i now want to remove the paint off my WE1911.
i had a box of random KJW P14 parts, and i actualy replaced the recoil spring and guide with the KJW one. it makes it look alot better when the slide is locked back. pm me if you want pictures |
I like it very much. I also got one 1911
|
due to a few people messaging me about it. here is the pics. sorry for the shitty webcam pics.

oh, very nice replacement, maybe I try with my 1911 later.

@Crocket74: thanks for posting pics and your polishing methods: it's made my pair of 1911's far brighter than I'd originally done. |
Man, that looks sweet. If I still had mine, I'd do it. Makes a nice show pistol.
|
Nice! Always wanted to know if these grips would fit well on a airsoft 1911.
|
Thats very nice. I personally prefer 1911s without rails, but whatever! That looks awesome!
