.45 Longslide. Do you want it with laser sighting?
I would try a WTB ad in the EE. Reliable had one a while back that was going for around $500, not sure if it was the LS though.
Good luck on your search.

I had an AMT Hardballer Long Slide exactly like the one in the first Terminator movie... Cool looking but not that reliable...

Hardballers are known gall pretty badly and simply won't last if you intend to shoot it.
Think of it this way, every time you shoot it, small chunks of the slide rails and slide are eroding off.
Unless you're strictly a collector, you can't simply "overlook these problems".

The LONG slide 7" pop up from time to time, not all that common. The Javelina seems to be more common (10mm version) but still hard to find. There was a 7" Hardballer with the factory comp (8" total barrel length!!!) that popped up last year back east. They are not common guns but the Javelina's I dealt with were well made and ran great YMMV

well like i said i agree on the reliability aspect of the amt its more of a novelty piece to me...for a primary 1911 i probably go with a springfield TRP or a wilson combat

Try Olympic Arms.They have pistol and 6" long slide top ends.

if you want a reliable and dead-on accurate longslide 1911, take a look at the STI Trojan 6 or the Target Master. Both great guns.
