One year has gone and my first ever 1911 project needed some "upgrades"... I have orderd a new slide, slidestop, barrel, reverse springplug and extractor (all Sti), all new parts have arrived and are handfitted to my Sti frame. Maybe a picture of new parts: First thing was barrel...

Sight install!! New years day i started to mill down my Norinco slide for the Sti sights, first i "flatmilled" rear end of the slide: Next i milled out the cuts for the blade and adjustment screw: And then i got busy and forgot to take pictures of my work so now the rear sight is...

Long range??? Of course i will test the long range accuracy, be starting the slidemilling for the new sights tomorrow but sandbags and laying on the ground will be aprox. 5 months away (summer!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I think that mainspringhousingpin, mag. release and trigger are the only things that are wider on 2011 frames (should only be the parts that are mounted in the grip)...

Testing my gun First i would like to thank some people who convinced me NOT to build a "roof" over the hood and as they said it will disturb the funcion of the gun.. And today i took some "freetime" and went to testfire the gun, shoot aprox. 20 rounds trought it and no problem just hammers a...

Parts @ home!!!!! Today i got my package with gunparts and all was fine until i open the package ..... a can of sight black did nor survive the trip and EVERYTHING was covered with sight black but i started cleaning everthing and started to assembly my gun. Sear and hammer needed a little...

Merry Christmas to all of you out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More barrelbushing Today i grinded some clearance on the bottom rear of the bushing to allow the barrel to tip down a little more and i also grinded the inside of the slide to stop the barrel from "hooking" the top of the slide (just a little smothening out). After that the gun does not jam...

New barrelbushing One thing thats been on my mind is the poorfitted Norinco barrelbushing but i have not found a barrelbushing "that speaks to me", i kind of like the melted look but i would like a unique bushing that´s "one of a kind", sooooooo time to fabricate, i revved my lathe, got hold of...

More Info Yes i´m one of the lonely "trail ´n error" gunbuilders in Sweden but why not try ???? Norinco´s POS barrel will be replaced later on but will be the "testbarrel", my plan includes a new barrel (kart or bar-sto) and a new slide, i bought the less expensive slide ´n barrel i could find...

After one year of competition shooting it was time for my first "big bore" semiautomatic pistol (i´ve been shooting hämmerli sp20 for half a year), but big question what to buy (glock, colt, cz, taurus, etc...). After alot of thinking i fell for the idea to build my own gun and after locating a...
