Real Firearms / Problem child 1911
« on: May 25, 2005, 08:49:16 PM »
I have a firestorm 45. which is a clone of the colt 1911a1. Now before I get too far in to this I don't want to hear any lip about buying a knock-off of a good U.S. gun that was copied and made in Spain, this gun was cheap and easily upgraded w/ Colt parts so I went for it.

The problem that I'm having with this gun seems to be with the ramp into the chamber. I know these guns don't like hallow points, but this one has problems even with ball. The slide jams the nose of the round into the slide, but is quickly re-chambered with a 1/4 inch pull back and release of the slide. Is there anything I can do to this gun like decreasing the slope of the ramp into the chamber, I hate to mill on the body of this gun since I have only one. However I do have access to a milling machine. Also, I know that if I mill the body that I will have to mill the ramp on the barrel(shiver). Will this make the barrel prone to fractures or would it still be safe.

I'm not a rich man, so any thing that cheap/free please let me know. Also, let me know anything else that may cause this problem.

Untill then I will pratice cold bore shot and then throwing at close range.

General Airsoft Discussion / New Field?
« on: August 01, 2003, 07:43:49 AM »
I was just out on my weekly 4x4 trip and came across a place that I thought might be a great field. At first I thought it would be stupid but with safety in mind, it might be cool.

In the White Tank Foothills, Approx 2 miles from Miller and I-10 (west valley) there is a old mining camp. the buildings are gone and there are some open mind shafts (all shafts, open or closed are fenced in)and the old stemwalls from the ore crusher. This site is on the side of a hill, somewhat overgrown, but looks cool. best yet. Two miles to Loves Truckstop where there is a Subway and Burger King. All land is owned by Gov. But they don't care aslong as there is no complaints.

There are alot of other areas around this site to play where there are no mine shafts. But they don't look as cool.

Because of liabilty, this could not be an AA game, but if any one is intersted to take a look at this place, or any others that are around the area. I will furnish the 4x4.

Airsoft Equipment Specials / Ghillie suits

For all of us that aren't invisible, there is the ghillie suit by BushRag. I bought one for paintball and this thing works like a dream at night, and is not hard to make.

For $50.00 it's not a bad deal

Check it out

I've been saying it and I'll say it again. This is the best mil sim game out. I've been hooked for months now and play it more than ever. I like it so much I sneak a game or two at work. I only wish they had a single player map.

Looks like a sweet game. I myself have been hooked on "America's Army". It's the best mil simulation pc game I've seen and best of all, it's free. I downloaded it from americasarmy.com two months ago and have been hooked since. The qualifying bites but once you get your rankings the game is absoulutely incredible. I give it two thumbs up...
