We have 1911 guns from S&W and now SIG... What would a 1911 look like from other unlikely gunmakers?
HK, Beretta, FN, Ruger, Bersa, Glock, Freedom Arms, Lazzeroni, Hi-Point, Steyr, Taurus, Walther, or Rossi... Take your pick.
Now, kinda like automakers with grills and front end fascias being similar across the line... you gotta make the 1911 recognizable as family line product.

[MrAcheson]

Ruger would just make it larger, thicker, and clunkier with the same lines. You know, like what they did when they turned the Peacemaker into the Blackhawk. :D

How about a Hi-Point 1911? :D

[Brigrat]

45R: Hey that's not nice, I like the way my Ruger looks!



:D :cuss: :D

[George Hill]

Hi-Point is working on their 1911 design right now:

[MJRW]

I think Glock might come up with something like this:

[George Hill]

Taurus has a 1911:

I wonder if Sig reads THR like they do SigF***m?
If they do I wonder what they are thinking right about now, as we all laugh at there yet to be unveiled hunk-o-rock... er.... I mean Granite gun.

RTFM

[sm]

hksw: the .600 Nitro for primary...but...where is the Lorcin? Gotta have a pocket rocket, don't forget the choice of pastel grips. 'Cause "everybody knows "ladies" can't handle anything but tiny guns and tiny calibers. [yeah right]
:D

LOL you guys are good!

You know if the barrel was at least 12 inchs, that might even be legal in the UK !!!!

I WANT ONE.

[pytron]

Had to do this one...

[Dave R]

Funniest thread since Law Dog files. Keep 'em coming.


'Cept that .600 nitro needs a wider grip. Or is it a single shot?

[VG]

Yeesh. I understand WHY Sig is doing this, mind you, I just think it's silly. I'd like to see more diversity in our handgun selection, not everybody making the same gun.

Barrett and McMillen.....the picture wouldn't fit but they weigh less than 20 lbs.....

[P95Carry]

Small Company .. new to most ... ''LongReach Inc'' ...... have worked on the famous JMB action of the HP and stretched it a tad .... plus rechambering for the .45acp .... to make a lightweight 1911 variant, because so many love the 9mm version.

This is the short tube option ... they are working on the longer version which ensures even better bullet placement ... it contacts the BG.... always! :D

Pytron, that thing is absolutely grotesque!:eek:

How bout a German 1911 with Carbon Fiber. I hope its tacticalacious.

We don't need no stinking Photoshop!

[Frohickey]

I don't think SigArms reads SigForum.com.

If they did, they would have made a 10mm Sig already!!! :mad:

[SnWnMe]

This just in:

AP News-"Against mounting pressure from consumers about the present model's recall and the threat of a new 1911 model from European gunmaker SigArms, Smith and Wesson releases what it hopes to be the most reliable and accurate 1911 in the market. The unimaginatively named 1911-1"

George, you're looking for the fat fingered model...

Ok, last one.

The "Purse 45" Loaded 1911 by S/A.
When ultimate concealability of a 45 is required.

[W Turner]

Top Notch- Whats sad is my first thought when I saw the Pocket Rocket was .......ya' know, that just might work. But there is no way in heck it could be reliable.

Would be sweet though. It would be called the Springfield Morgan as opposed to the Colt Mustang. Short, stout and strong.

Mino

[George Hill]

Sure it would... it's just a single shot, single action derringer.
:D

[Erich]

TopNotch, you have this SA Micro-Compact owner grinning pretty big.

Shoot, that's pretty much how it appeared to me when I first saw my Micro in the case. I don't know how i ever got around to liking it!

[PCRCCW]

ROTFLMFAO! :D :D :D

Shootwell.....................ba ha ha ha ha

[gbelleh]

Here's the Lorcin 1911 you've all been waiting for!!!

I can't host images, so you'll have to click the link...

[Correia]

YES! The Lorcin is AWESOME! :D That is the gun I must own!

[J.Bourne]

What about a Raven, or higher quality Seecamp 1911?

[gbelleh]

I'm not sure who makes this new 1911...

What do you think??? :confused: :uhoh: :confused:

[gbelleh]

One more...

This is Smith & Wesson's new long slide 1911 with improved roll mark...

[pytron]

Looks like the Lorcin grip was carved out of a block of soap! :D

[hksw]

haha. That Lorcin one looked like the frame was carved out of chocolate.

[BlkHawk73]

Some of you guys have WAAAY too much time on yor hands!:uhoh: :scrutiny:

[Andrew Wyatt]

what i found in a local gunshop. With HK's typical sense of scale, it's twice the width of any other 1911.http://www.thehighroad.org/attachment.php?s=&postid=589136

[New_comer]

HK 1911... <major drool>


I LUV IT!!!:evil: :cool:

[gbelleh]

I couldn't resist one more! :evil:

Here's a WWII Mil Spec 1911 of a slightly different type!! :neener:

[P95Carry]

gbelleh --------- I'm gonna give you top prize (so far) for that one ..... excellent! The Lorcin ''bar of soap'' was good but this one ...

Great!!

[George Hill]

Nice.... :D The HK and the Liberator... sweeetness.

The Lawyer Roll Marks... that's too close to the truth to be funny! :what:

[Bowlcut]

dang it....im laughing too hard.....must type....then go to bed....

LOL
ROFL
ROFLMAO

[Kor]

C'mon, guys...howzabout that Kel-Tec "P1911"? Or the Bond Arms "1911 Defender"? Or even the Uberti 1911? Maybe the Walther P1911A1?

Hey, I know - the Victorinox "Swiss Army 1911," with red grip panels and 7 different blades/tools that fold into the mainspring housing... :rolleyes:

Jeez, it's a good thing I don't have Photoshop... :o

[Andrew Wyatt]

kor: get the GIMP (gnu image manipulation program) http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/ has the windows version.


that's what i used.

Ruger 1911 Lefty

I like mine, but that's one Fuggly Ruger. But that's the point of this whole excercise, isn't it?:)

[Top_Notch]

I can NOT believe you guys havn't done this one yet. So, by default I have to take this upon myself to create one. (And the comment about having too much time...I'm at work....what better things do I have to do?)

I have one for you... Stoeger's 1911 (They make Lugers)

Any Mauser 1911's out there?
What about a Thompson Center 1911?

[Top_Notch]

George,
I really liked SnWnMe's Smith and Wesson (http://www.southbaybikes.com/1911625ps.jpg), but gbelleh's Lorcin (http://www.thehighroad.org/attachment.php?s=&postid=588674) is the sign of a true madman. The liberator was awesome as well.

I really like this thread.

[TheeBadOne]

This is a great thread! :D

[GM7RQK]

I have to stop reading this thread, I keep looking at some of these pictures and thinking ......



I WANT ONE :cool:

Great stuff guys, wish I had your talent.

Since everyone and their dog is making a 1911 now, why not Microsoft

All those "Critical Updates" ,Propietary code, and Access (I'm not the only person on this forum that hates Access).

I'll wait for the Linux version, less expensive, more stable, open source code ( meaning I can adjust to my needs), NO crashes...and if done right the penguin might appear as a crest/ makers mark. No front serrations and a clean looking slide...:D

[BevrFevr]

http://www.bedford.net/design/shoot/linux_1911.jpg

ROTFLMAO! I like this one !
This one will run, one an get parts if need from various sources ( not propietary) and sell for a whole less for a better product.

Seriously, I like this plain jane, no fin, no night sight, gun.
Of course I'm biased, very biased. Gimme a real USGI 1911 and everybody else can goop up all they.

:D

[Stickjockey]

must...get...photoshop...

Anyone do a Jeeptm 1911?

[hksw]

That Microsoft one should be entered as a 'smart gun'. If it locks up on you when you did nothing wrong, just hit the C+A+D. It'll take a little while to reboot though.

[Gewehr98]

Somebody thought a Contender crossed with a 1911 would be a good thing, so they made a bunch. I bought one:



http://www.mauser98.com/wichitarightplonk.jpg

[George Hill]

Gewehr98 - Yeah, but it's not funny.

[Caliburn]

Here's my original Linux 1911 model from five years ago. It came just as you see it below. Almost everything was included, and what wasn't, you just machined yourself - nothing could be easier. Best of all, it was free!



:D

[George Hill]

So your missing the slide and half of the rest of the parts... and only one grip?
Must be Mandrake Linux...

[Gewehr98]

Gewehr98 - Yeah, but it's not funny.

You're telling me!

Only gun in my inventory where a shooting glove is a must-have. :(

[Greg Bell]

Bah, I prefer my P7 Longslide!!

Apparently Bersa gave the 1911 a go .... using old slide components for a prototype ...
