Was able to get a Colt 1911 Government yesterday, any suggestions for mods? :)

Hi Jawel, yup, its a .45, i plan to use to same ammo ng revo ko para minimal logistics. regarding the firing pin, pag sa revo, i dont believe in using extended firing pins for ultralightened setups, ni compute na namin ni ans yan at experienced it first hand. most people dont believe me until they test my 6.5lb trigger pull :supergrin:

BILIS! May isa pa frame natira! :rofl:

Problema ba yon????? :upeyes:

Tumawag na ako sa Armscor, ni reserve na kita. :supergrin: Nag down na pala ako, next time mo na ako bayaran. Pinalakad na daw ni Maj. Tuliao yung license, it should be out before Christmas. Just bring 2pcs 2x2 pics chaka isang 1x1 pic. Hanapin mo nalang si Major Tuliao, sa kanya ko na binilin. :cool:

.....oh, di nawala na inggit mo :cool:

For a very simple, yet practical modification for carry, I would suggest a set of King Tappan sights, Videcki trigger, a reliability package, and Wilson mags (either seven or eight rounders).

BI to the next level!!!

since colt yan, dont do anything irreversible para ma preserve yung value. keep the original parts in case you want to sell the unit.

just buy sight that would drop in. a hammer set that would give you a nice trigger pull and wilson mags or cmc power mags

let me introduce DR.BIA

yung BI na-BI :tongueout::supergrin:

Makoy! Ganda ng frame! Chaka 2 pcs nalang daw ang natira. When I was there, may isang guy tinitingnan din, pero hinde pa naman binili. Ano? Kuha na din kita? Para dalawa kayo ni mtho.:supergrin: Baka may discount sa gunsmith pag dalawang gun sabay ipabubuo. Just let me know. I think mtho has copies of your pics naman diba? :rofl: Sabay na natin! Tamang tama may welcome home gift ka pag balik mo sa Pinas :supergrin:

nyeyeye ayaw :tongueout:

mga BI :supergrin:

:laughabove: Ayaw daw pero nag PM kung magkano daw pag kasama licence :rofl:
Ano Makoy? Just let me know, ganon lang ka dali:supergrin:

the works na yan zen hehe. keep us posted. yung mga magbubuo pa na iba go lang ng go hehe

Thanks guys...going to be getting some new springs for the unit, and then check out the internals na din. Will update this thread when I proceed with the modifications...

norc?

Yup Sir Mark.

If you don't mind me asking, did you replace the barrel bushing on the Commander? If yes, what brand and how much?

NICE!!! Planning to do a similar build - Norc commander but I believe wala na GI na commander for sale.

ganyan din lettering nung akin, pero iba ata yung nakasulat kaya pinabura ko

edtf, what are you waiting for! let's go! antagal naman....

hahahah.. that made my day :rofl::rofl:

One more thing...I noticed that the front sight on my 1911 is the original old style (pinned) and there is rusting beneath it. I cleaned it out well with some WD40 and brushes (and floss to reach under the sight)...

Although I like the classic look of the pistol, I think that I might have a front sight dovetailed na lang.

masyado mainit pa with the wife dapat lumamig lamig muna then I shall strike :D

Ganda ng mga builts dito.

I need your inputs, Meron bang drop-in beavertail grip safety for the colt series 70 frame, so as to keep the frame in its original configuration (just in case you want to restore it to its original set-up?)

What's the advantage of the Koenig hammer?

Another thing, do you change your firing pin stop to the square-edged type(as against the usual radiused/round-edged one?

Thanks.
