GSG 1911 tweaking

[skoal]

The other option is dlask (what i have) they are a drop in no fitting I was going to do the same as dilligaf but I lost my ffactory rear at the range and wanted a new one quickly.

Thanks, didnt think of doing that. Ive been ingrained with modify the part not the gun. with a GSG alloy slide, its easier!

GSG is a series 80 style firing pin safety, not a Schwartz style like your vid....different animals.

So that's what all that extra stuff in there is about! Cheers! My understanding of the series 80 pin safety was the Schwartz I guess?

There seems to be some difference of opinion about whether the GSG is series 70 or 80, so I will share:
Here's my GSG slide, made in late 2012:
.

Plunger = series 80

Frame with corresponding lever:

Norinco .45 slide, circa 199? no plunger= series 70

Norinco frame, no lever

The surfaces are nicer than they appear, a little camera shake and lots of oil present.

After 5000+ rounds, the linkage works just as smoothly as the rest of the action, I'm not going to bother removing it now.

Just got the Dlask Rear replacement sight. Installed in seconds, looks great! I am so happy I ordered a second one. By the way they are on sale right now if nobody has already mentioned that.

You can replace the MSH but you need a complete one, the GSG guts are different and contain the mag disconnect. Dlask has decent replacement sights for these...F/O front and adjustable rear.
