AMT/IAI Javelina in 10mm Auto - *PICS ADDED*

[Jeff/1911]

Hi Folks,

SEE BELOW A FEW POSTINGS FOR PICS!

I just bought one of these used. Do any of you currently own one, or have you owned one...and if so what do/did you think of it? I'm a 10mm nut from way back, and currently shoot (and reload for) a G20; so I figured "What the Hell?"

Was that the one at P&D?

AMT quality before they went mammories skyward was spotty. The ideas were interesting, but the build quality was often poor. Very gritty slide to frame fit. Bushings that broke, or slides that cracked at the bushing lug.

I don't want to discourage you from enjoying your new toy.

Yes!

I had heard something of this...I figure I may have to give it a little polishing and smoothing here and there. Should be fun!

Thanks Canuck223!

Here it is...

I think it'll be a lot of fun to shoot! - Jeff.

And just where would somebody even find one of those old Surefire lasers these days? An antique store?

Hey, nice longslide!

If a guy could find a nice 1911 shoulderstock you could turn it into a 10mm carbine [or is that car-been ].

Nice pistol, though - give us a range report when you get a chance....

Deckard,

Thanks for the link! No wonder when I first picked it up I had the irresistable urge to say "Whey' is Sara Conna'..."

NAA,

Thanks, good idea! I will post a range report soon.

Kee-rist. That looks like a handful.

 

[Deckard]

Dlask makes a longslide.

Yeah, but do they make a shoulder stock?

 

[Jeff/1911]

I just replaced the stocks with some Hogue flat rubber panels...looks (and feels) nice. I'll post a couple more pictures. Jeff.

Looking good. Should give you some nice velocity. Steel plates at 200 yards...no problem .

 

[Claven2]

Now you need some cool add-one like commander hammer, high-rise BT so when you NEED to choke up your grip you won't get bitten

Hex head grip screws would look good too....

 

[Scarecrow]

Looks like its starting to get rusty. Refinish it in chrome!

Wow, I didn't know they made such a thing. The second set of pics was much nicer.
