A company named MKS Supply has introduced a 1911 -22 at a rretail price of $299.00.

A New .22 Rimfire 1911 Semi-Auto for $299!

1911-22 with black finish
MKS Supply, Inc., Dayton, OH, – Yes you read right, a full .22 caliber 1911 .45ACP clone for under $300!
For a price under most .22 conversion units MKS Supply, Inc., is making available a fantastic buy for gun owners across the country. “We feel this affordable, accurate, reliable pistol will be exceptionally received by those who want a 1911 ACP clone in the popular, affordable and fun .22 LR rimfire round.”

Details: This is a full size clone of the standard 1911 .45 ACP. The weight is less because both the slide and the frame are constructed of aluminum alloy. The lighter slide in particular also allows for reliable functioning it has much less mass for the recoil action of the diminutive .22LR round to function.
The internal components of the 1911-22 are all steel of course. The steel barrel insert is fixed to the slide to provide better accuracy. The fixed barrel also eliminates some not necessary parts found in the original .45 which was designed for full disassembly due to battlefield conditions.
The finish on the slide and frame is a flat black oxide finish. MKS Supply is also going to make available olive drab and desert tan models with powder coated slides.
The magazines are made of formed industrial-grade polymer and have been proven in extensive testing to be incredibly reliable as the polymer forming process ensures they are identical thus eliminating steel assembly and fit variances. And yes, MKS Supply will offer extra magazines at a no-gouge price under $20 MSRP.

It felt pretty good in the hand, but at $685 it didn't seem like a great buy compared to a stainless Colt Commander down the aisle at $750. It was light and handy enough, but somehow lacked a lot of appeal. ]]> DaTeacha http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/89614-para-slim-hog.html http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/89613-interesting-hybrid.html Sun, 15 Nov 2009 02:05:53 GMT At a gun show today, I saw a Para/Colt hybrid.

At a gun show today, I saw a Para/Colt hybrid. The frame, trigger, etc. were from Para Ordnance, the short slide and barrel were Colt. The guy said the magazines held 14 rounds plus 1 in the chamber, giving 15 rounds in a package that was much like a Commander, but fatter in the grip. He said Para made them that way for a while, buying the slide and barrel from Colt and combining them with the Para lower assembly. He was asking $650 for it, which seems like a decent enough price if the thing functions reliably. I have questions about how well the magazines might work, or what could be done if they don't, so passed on it. Did you guys ever hear of this factory hybrid? ]]> DaTeacha http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/89613-interesting-hybrid.html http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/88913-speed-performance-hammers.html Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:48:34 GMT I've been poking around the different sites looking at parts and noticed Wilson Combat has some performance and speed hammers for faster lock time and such. How would you even go about replacing one of these things? ]]> Archetype_wyo http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/88913-speed-performance-hammers.html http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/88790-new-grips.html Sun, 01 Nov 2009 03:08:32 GMT I've been eyeballing these grips for months and finally had an excuse to buy them today. Silly, but I went as a devil for Halloween at work and they fit. That was what I needed... a good excuse to drop the money on the grips. LOL! Still keeping those nice maple grips Seven gave me. I plan to switch back and forth as the mood suits. But I really like how these look.

Aside from the weight, it's a nice little gun. Does anyone know anything about it? I kind of liked the fat grip on the thing, but a fully loaded mag in the steel gun would be kind of heavy for carry. Do they make a lightweight version? 12 rounds of .45 will add a lot of weight to any small gun. Oh yeah, it was used, still dirty from firing - they don't clean trade ins - and looked to be in very good shape. They're asking $550. ]]> DaTeacha http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/88400-para-12-45-a.html http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/m1911-clone-pistols/88356-para-gi.html Sat, 24 Oct 2009 23:42:53 GMT What do you guys think of the Para GI? It looks to be the standard 1911 GI but with the mods I think most would have on without going overboard. What do you guys think of the Para GI?
