Title: 1500fps from a 1911
Post by: spc on January 01, 2010, 10:42:56 PM
Yessir, I just ordered the .460 Rowland conversion kit for my Combat Commander.   Dirty Harry wished he had a gun like a .460 1911 :cool:

Its a project gun.   I put 300 rounds through it yesterday without a problem. Cosmetically, its a little rough but mechanically its perfect. Wilson bulletproof everything from the extractor to extended ejector. I have to duracoat it but am waiting until I get the conversion kit so I can make the compensator match. The only thing I really need to figure out is whether I'm going to get rid of the series 80 firing pin block or not.

Careful about saying wilson bullet proof everything. Wilsons has a couple of different price ranges on parts and the lower priced line is manufactured using metal injection molding and they have hard parts failure issues. I wouldn't worry about the series 80 safety,

I wanna see pictures of the finished 1911!

I wouldn't carry or trust a keltec with my life . . . there's small good quality 9mm's out there, especially if you live in a free state. get a sig sauer p250 subcompact :2guns:

Still no sign of the conversion, but the gun is completely stripped and I'll probably duracoat it tomorrow. I've got a spring and pin kit from ed brown to put in too.
