It's good to see the 7chan revival being taken seriously. Keep it up, Gray.

Nice choice with the RIA .45.... I only say that because I'm gonna get one next month :3

1911, fuck yeah!

Would I be Called a Newfag for Buying a 1911
from a custom Shop? I mean w/ tritium sights
a mini rail running along the bottom of the frame etc.
I Like 1911s, but Springfeild makes some Nice ones, are those a good buy?
Small pic not related, but Close to what I'd like to purchase.

>>3065
No sir, you would in fact be called smart.

Look in to Springfield Operator

>>3146
To Be honest with you My friend, I was
actually looking at the very same pistol.
Just a little more of a blueish color on the lower frame. Something like this.
Also thanks for the proper name As well.

Not the best pic,but this is my 1911.It's an Essex frame,Auto-Ordnance slide,and Colt barrel.Got it used for $400.

>>2998

Do you like the RIA? I'd like to buy a 1911 style pistol but I don't want to spend $600 for one.

>>3876
I was the above guy to post about the operator from springfield.
Um, the gun that I said that I'd like to get was priced at $1,545 USD in 2004, so it's prolly gone up since then.
But none the less, everything on the weapon is match grade, and I'd say it's worth it.
(Once I get the Money & move away from california That is.)
Also much of the stuff can either be modified by the company, or adjusted to preference by the user/customer.

/w/ - Racism and Paranoia

Someone should start a home made weapons thread. I know you have made one.

>>3967
For anyone who makes a thread regarding building firearms in the future, please state that it is illegal to create SBRs, similar weapons and sound suppressors without registering and paying for a 200 dollar tax stamp before building. Also, be sure to remind people to check their state and local laws. Thanks.

Um, Does an old Hard wood Oak Axe-Handle w/ electrical tape for a handle Count?

>>4253
Learn correct capitalization then we'll answer you.

>>5228
Oshit sorry Greywilde meant to reference this idiot >>5196.

i love that gun and i like paintball guns and penises

>>5228
My apologies.
Correct literary form is often left to the dogs in such circumstances, and I figured that I'd just follow suit.

Will you answer my question now?

>>5254
I was just messin' with you, I don't even get what the fuck you were talking about...

>>2998
test

who makes the best 1911 clone in your opinion? want to get one soon but don't know what to get.

>>6310

Kimber makes fantastic ones. I've been hearing better and better things about Taurus' semi-auto pistols though as time goes on, so I'd check their stuff out. You might come out with a much better price/quality ratio.

>>6330

Yeah, that's true, but the Taurus 1911 looks so shitty that I find myself very amenable to the idea of paying a premium, if only for a lighter finish and a bit of wood grain.

>>6428

'Tis not hard to replace the grips, dear sir.

>>6671

Yeah, I suppose you're right; that would certainly help...

Put Deltas On it Like I got.
Only difference in pic is My gun's a Stainless Gov't model.

Thompson makes a good 1911

shoot a 22 until you can pluck off a flower petal at 30 yards, then feel the flower's pain... now you are ronin... go for mod

i am a very eccentric individual, i love oddities. i want a 1911 something fierce, but i dont want something everyones seen before. what do you suggest?

>>8399
Double stack 1911's aren't real common, or very practical. They have cons but its not something everyone's seen before. Or a custom built race gun. Thats about as odd as you're going to get with a 1911.

recent episode of handguns on the sportsman channel spoke of coating the rails of the slide and the frame with carbide to eliminate gauling, has anyone else herd of this and is it cost effective?
also pic is Mech Tech CCU on the Charles Daly 1911 .45 ACP Weaver Rail, Red Dot Scope, High Polish Grips and Vertical Foregrip in 45 deg. back position. dose it still fit in this thred?

fuck islam, go jump in a sulfur pit and churn slowly so you disappear.

>>8514
Wtf are you replying too?

I would like a pistol that could last long with proper support and maintaining. Could anyone hook me up?

with proper support and maintaining? anything new and most things old. hook you up? no.

long slide is long
