Wanted: DiscoTechNoir 7 inch barrel 1911

[Dexter Morgan]

How about just a 7" top end designed to fit a standard 1911 lower

Definitely the cheapest/easiest solution.

This turns it from something I would try to get someone else to buy and borrow into something I would buy. I am an idiot and not representative of the overall shooting community though. If it was priced well, I would even get it in 10 mm without checking the price of ammunition.

if $700 is too much, what will be a reasonable price for 7'' stainless, full ambi. with 4 x 8 rounds mag?

If Norinco doesn't want it, this might be a good collaborative project for Can Am and Dlask Arms.

Are handguns like AR's where the lower is the "Gun" and the upper is an accessory? If so, the top slide could be made by anyone and need no approval from RCMP or anything, right?

 

[Deckard]

That's true. We could get 7 inch slide assemblies easily. That way some could have porting, others not.

No news or anything about it?

curious why you want porting

 

[Deckard]

Some longslides have lightened slides. Porting is an add on that is useful for 10mm for example. If they are making a new product is worth discussing variants. It's academic, of course, since we don't warrant a response.

Who knows, maybe one day these will just show up on the Can Am site. I'm dreaming aren't I? A 6" or 7" in 45 would be my choice, plain GI so I could do my own work on it.

So much for "give us the plans and we'll do it." This was the simplest plan. Delete the thread.

I have a stainless Metro Arms .45 1911 Bulls Eye which is a 6'' long slide. Its pretty nice it has a bull barrel, skeletal hammer, checkered front strap as well as adjustable sites. Its pretty sweet.

How many ''preorder'' will start the ''chinese shop'' to make those 7 inch slide?

 

[tjhaile]

Thanks. The Nighthawk Heinie Longslide is 10mm only, and Les Baer has front cocking serrations (and in my personal opinion is way overpriced), so not exactly what I am looking for. I could have a custom built, but we are talking about Norc / Dominion Arms type price points. So, yeah I guess maybe $...not $$$.

Baer will build guns without front cocking serrations. My Custom Carry does not have them because I ordered it that way. For the most part, the semi-custom 1911 builders will build whatever you want; they just catalogue standard models that have popular combinations of features.

Probably a few more than the 200 or so expressing interest via this thread... I'd probably buy a couple though

 

[leflingeur]

depend on the price 4 will fill my needs: 2 single stack and 2 norinco doublestack.

can I get a plasma rifle in the 40 watt range?
