now understand if YOU build this, the learning curve wil be very high, the probability of FTF and FTE will be HIGH, and there will be no warranties expressed implied from anyjuan. and ya better have a machine shop to back ya.
why do i bother with this? because i have seen time after time and so has nelson, ford on .45's "the TINKERER" as we have all seen countless times with other mfg items.
nelsons normal day includes righting the wrongs of the "TINKERERS". now in my book and anyjuan else who has bean around firearms the first thing ya need to be a gunsmith is a GUNSMITH DEGREE. next ya better get a fair amount of experience on a mill and a lathe. and i dont mean drilling a 3/8 hole by "wallering " and a lil more experience than "hawging" out some alum.
now the "worlds most interesting man" on here mentioned that "he only loads one round at a time and then increases it to 2 then 3 then 4 rds so they dont go full auto" WTF IS THAT ALL ABOUT?????????? now thats a closet "TINKERER" and for that to occur...............well something is just DAMN WRONG on those builds.
my suggestion(butt WTF do i know???) instead of salivating over the brownells catalog and coming up with a host of untested goodie parts and becoming a "TINKERER"....................
is to buy a PROVEN model with PROVEN PARTS whatever yer wallet can afford and sit down with a real live GUNSMITH that KNOWS WHAT THE HELLS HES DOING for your vision of the "perfect .45", because yer about to embark on a very very long journey down a very bad road and its gonna get wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
SPENDY before YOU achieve yer GOAL of an accurate RELIABLE .45.
now think about this: YOU are redesigning a 1911 proven firearm with 2010 items.
now if YOU were a GUNSMITH with a MACHINING BACKGROUND and MACHINE TOOLS with a BETTER MOUSETRAP DESIGN...................why are YOU NOT SELLING THIS BRILLIANT CONCEPT to REAL FIREARM MFGS??????
now the SAFEST .45 EVER BUILT...........the HK USP .45. has a DECOCKER which all guns should have in some form or another because thats where AD's occur majority of the time.
want the baddest ass HK .45? go to GREY GUNS and check out his work.
HK's concept on the USP was to make a SAFER .45 design which they have carried thru all the calibers with the USP and USPC calibers. when ya think about it, carrying a .45 locked and cocked,hammer back,safety up,maybe a strap keeping hammer from falling on firing pin, its NOT the "perfect design" its acceptable, it does work with practice, but it still leaves alot of room for error and time and time and time again people either shoot their foot or right down thru the knee grabbing them out of holsters playing "QWEEKS DRAW MCGRAW".
HK started the concept with their HK P9S design. once again a decocker. but their design entailed dropping lever on side of trigger, and THEN PULLING THE TRIGGER to decock. if done in the wrong sequence..........KABOOM! this was not met with good applause because as always STOOPID PEOPLE!
next attempt at this decocker design was on the USP and on other mfgs like beretta. this has caught on as the "HAPPY PLACE" for gun people because if ya have round in chamber and yer ready to fire, and decide not to fire for whatever reason, you can safely DECOCK veapon unlike grabbing the grips front/rear on a 1911 design, pulling the trigger and riding the hammer back down safely. ALWAYS A TREAT I ASSURE YOU! and ya better have yer barrel pointed in safe direction each and everytime.
so your dealing with a complicated design. are you gonna "race this gun"? or are you gonna daily carry? are ya gonna bet yer life on it?
we have seen countless multi mega buck 1911's take a GIANT CRAP and a lil old cheap ass USGI mil spec parkerized model spin circles around the "UBER TINKERERS" pistol and GO BANG EVERYTIME!
have fun and send pics. we LOVE PICS!
