In both those cases you are are well over $1000. If you want a factory option, you best bet is to get a wide body 40 S&W and have it reamed/replace the barrel, or order something from Fusion.

I am into this gun less than $700 including the cost of the reamer. I just ran all my ammo through the seating die again for a OAL of 1.245" and life was good. Finally figured out it was the OAL of the cartridge. Every other round it would not be in battery completely. Then the issue.It would not feed my handloads with Lee 175 gr SWC I cast. This was standing, two hands at about 20 yards. Please note the small home above the "7" is from a friend shooting something. The really incredible thing is none of these caused a stoppage. This pistol is chambered in 45 ACP with a 5. Like all Rock Island 1911s, this series is built with 4140 Ordnance steel and refined by our carefully managed hand fitting process.
#DOUBLE STACK 1911 FULL#
Bent the extractor just a touch and brass issues went away. The TAC Ultra FS introduces a full tactical rail and is built with a double stack magwell with 14-round capacity. This turned out to be extractor tension related. I also made the following changes to the gun: EGW flat bottom firing pin stop, 25 lb mainspring, 23 lb recoil spring, aluminum trigger (stock is plastic), aluminum mag release (stock is plastic), flat mainspring housing, Ed Brown high ride beavertail grip safety, and I replaced the ambi safety with a plain extended safety.įirst range trip it really mangled some brass:

I picked up one Mec Gar flush magazine, which is in the photo, that holds 15, and three triple K with a slight base plate extension that hold 17. I have bought a reamer and reamed the barrel, then polished the chamber and throat. The latest addition to the high-capper market is Rock Island Armory, which offers numerous double-stack M1911 models with either 4.25', 5' or 6' barrels. It started life as a Para P16-40 stainless.
