1911 in 9

[id64]

I love my Rock! In 9mm it's accurate as i can be and with 7.62 conversion barrel it's cheap to shoot on top of that!

 

[Snowboy]

7.62 ??

 

[id64]

7.62 ??

Yes, 7.62x25 TOK

 

[Snowboy]

I thought 7.62 x 39 .. what a recoil !!

 

[smashwagon]

Now please share where we can get these barrels

 

[vince514]

what is this 1911 brand you were talking about???

would like more info : name,price & more pictures please looks interesting!!!

how much does the 7.62x25 ammo cost per box of 50? never heard anything about this caliber.. are they hard to find???

if its cheaper than 13-16$ / 50 rounds then its less expensive than 9mm!

7.62x25 is one of the cheapest non-rimfire calibers around. You can get 2280 rounds for around $350 bucks before taxes and shipping, some places such as Canada Ammo have free shipping.

Canada ammo actually has 40 round boxes for $9.99.

It's a very economical round that packs a heck of a punch.

Cool calibre! Shot a couple of mags through a TT33 Tokarev, got some punch to it! This is cool news, since I was thinking of a 9mm 1911 anyway, and $109 is pretty reasonable from Numrich GunPartsCorporation.

J&G apparently has a kit like this for close to $200...seems a tad steep to me.

to expensive to ship over the border without an export permit so add even more to it

love my 9mm 1911, needs a few mods but i like the soft recoil

 

[Dean_1911]

Might have to get a 1911 with a 762 barrel now..
you got me thinking!

Is there a Canadian friendly source for the 7.62 conversion kit? Some place that won't gouge us on shipping?

Thanks,
Cal.

 

[calvados.boulard]

Anybody?

Thanks,
Cal.

Would also be interested to know if there is a Canadian retailer for a 1911 conversion kit to this caliber.

 

[calvados.boulard]

Agreed. No one has any info on this?

Thanks,
Cal.

 

[id64]

As far as I know, no one sells them in Canada

 

[calvados.boulard]

Any option to import them from the US? Profit River perhaps?

Thanks,
Cal.

 

[Dr.K]

Yes. Dont let this thread die. We need answers. Someone needs to bring the kits in or we should do a group buy. Ill buy an NP-29 just to convert it.

 

[calvados.boulard]

I'd be on on that!

Thanks,
Cal.

I seem to remember talks about getting a 7.62 conversion kit for the 1911 in a thread in the Wolverine Supplies section. I think John said it may be a possiblity of getting conversion kits through Shooter's Arms.

I found the thread: http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum/showthread.php?t=761158 It's a couple of pages in.

It's up for sale. PM me if interested, I am going to put on for sale section soon.
