"High-capactiy" 1911 magazines (Wilson Combat style)

[marcwhite]

count me in for 1 or 2.

[SwampSlayer]

any new details?

I am also interested in these.

I would love to see a set of these. But instead of making them high capacity just use the TM standard of 28 of just a slight upgrade to like 30 or 31 as that is still alot to shoot and the extended capacity would be used as a gas resevoir and then firing all 28 rds can be shot in quick sucession.

A kit would be fine for me either way its made I'd be done for 3.

[HaloSix4]

I would take a few.

For those interested:

Initial machining looks good. The guys I use are top-notch, and care about their work, which REALLY makes a huge difference.

I haven't had much time to put into R&D however, my top priority has been the WETTI AWSS trigger group for SCAR and M4/4168.

I've been trying to find ways of making the kit seal better than it currently is - I've had some leaking problems, which just won't do. The idea here is to increase gas capacity, so it's got to be dead-simple to install without leaking. And right now, that isn't the case.

I'm also delayed on finding someone to do the plastic/nylon molds for the base-plate. Yes, people can use the standard-capacity base-plate, but it's not authentic to the look of the extended mag - and is part of what I think makes the mags look dead-sexy.

That's about it, really. I've been trying to keep people updated via http://6mm-mag.com/ - but again - priority is with the WETTI AWSS trigger group.

any updates on this?

[diamond_SEA]

Looks like he chose the right machining company.

[Conker]

Nah, that's AAC, not his. Just a trick to get your attention (it's written on the caption)

Marui will try to take your business....40 round TM long mag for 1911 is coming soon....

[lokisama]

Still.. I don't know about you guys but CNC machined magazines sound pretty sweet... lol
Marui one is also a little lacking in the realism department

I just hope you're still going to have this thing made.

:>

A valve-key for the fill-valve may be included in the "upgrade kit", or sold separately (more likely to be sold separately - I've been toying with the idea of making a valve-key that is essentially a bit for a bit-swappable screwdriver - feel free to comment on that if you like).

This sounds like a fantastic idea regardless of these magazines reaching production.

[talon]

just curious about any updates?

[Pivot]

If they're KJW compatible, YAY. It's just a matter of time before I look like Travis Haley with more Wilson hi-capacity mags than AR mags.

Still only loaded to real capacity...

Is the KJW 1911 a clone of the Marui?

The 1911 I believe is a direct marui clone, but the MEU varies slightly on the KJW (mags are fatter) but beyond that all the internals are the same.

[RacingManiac]

Yes, at least the version they are selling now is.

Although they have a CO2 version now that has those fat magazines now...

Still waiting for TM to come out with their extended mag as they've shown a few months back...
