Norc & STI combo

[Gasanwu]

Anyone try this yet?
Norc frame, Spartan Slide, and a crap load of SS parts, with tungsten guide rod.

Thought about it but I already have a Norc-in-Stein....

Nice job on yours though....

How could you do that to a STI!!

 

[SCDL]

Now, all you need is the mechtech carbine conversion kit.

BTW.... a flat mainspring housing would look nicer....

 

[Gasanwu]

Maybe, but the way my hands are, they do better with the current mainspring housing.

Nice. I like the Norinco frame so much I'm building a Norinco frame / Caspian slide .45 and 9mm twins.

did you find the STI frame unacceptable? i don`t get it but to each his own.

If you're going to start with "parts" to do your own "custom" and buy the STI frame & slide just as the "parts" you might as well start your project with a complete STI Spartan, no?

Here's an example [basic prices but tax & shipping would be extra]:

Complete STI Spartan .45ACP = $789

Spartan frame + beavertail + Spartan slide = $495.

If you compare pricing technically that leaves only $294 to fund all your other internals for the frame, including grips, and then the internals for the slide [barrel, bushing etc].
