And now for a different 1911....

Post by rm9792 »

Just finished the build. 7" engraved AMT slide on a Para widebody .45acp. Factory AMT frame was junk so decided to do a HiCap.

Holy cow!

I would need a scope just to see the front sight.

Sure is nice looking! :thumbs2:

Good Lord! Where do you attach the bipod on that thing? Did the slide come engraved like that, or did you have it done?

The first pic didn't show up, I refreshed and then it worked. This one works fine too.


I saw a 7" at a gunshow a few weeks ago but didn't have the money to get one. It'd be a great ankle gun.
