| Something a little different......
Just finished this slide. It's a new top end in 40 for an existing 45. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Quite innovative. VERY nice!!! Nothing quite like a good mill and 1911s! |

I like the diagonal "racing stripes" leading from the forward cocking serrations to the ejection port! Ray |

Where did you get a slide with that shape?

Guessing here...but that looks like an STI slide that had cocking serrations and sight cuts in it. You then cut the 45deg flats and cut the racing stripes in the sides. Used a ball mill to put the channel down the length of the factory curved top. Am I at least getting warm?? :-) Looks fantastic. Nice job!! |
