[JUNAID187]

with the colt nickel is it possible to polish it to give it a "Chrome" look ?

[Jes437]

@JUNAID187 : I'd say not, you'd probably go through the plating.

[hoteatsdog]

So.. WHO WON?

[Jes437]

@hoteatsdog : Who won what?

[Afiso]

wich one do i need to buy. The colt 1911 A1 are the Beretta m 92 FS. wich one is better?

[Jes437]

@Afiso : Neither in operation really. The Berretta possibly has a better trigger than the 1911, but the frame thing is just down to personal choice.

[RamboSnake73]

nothing close to the KWC Colt M1911

[hardy309]

@JusticeBird007 it leaks out , its supposed to so you should not screw it in too tight otherwise it ruins the seals .

[JusticeBird007]

i have a question if you leave a c02 cartrifge inserted in a gun for a week does the c02 leak out or does it stay in place until you shoot it?

@lopezorozco

use silicon oil on all the oring, seal

[baronzl]

the standard colt 1911 back side it is difficoult to set because it is mounted in a 2 shells casts ,which leaves a hole where the screw of the sight tends to return and dig a hole.

Colt 1911 is a mess.

better reliable umarex pistols are in order of reliability :

S&w 686

C225

Beretta 92

Cp88

CPS= Cp99

[baronzl]

Precharged the spring, heavied the hammer , grased mechanism, removed safety grip, always clugged as before.Now I have colt 1911  b.OPS it has been done better , but it fires half a foot up at 20m.to fix I worked 2 days,mounted the cp88 adj sight

but it as a different fitting so I worked the metalg lued it with epossidic.

mounted front cp88 high sight to down more the line of sight but....

I gained only a few inches .Now it fires at 0 at 25 meters.

[lopezorozco]

@baronzl

so what could i do about it? can it be fixed?

[baronzl]

@prosliver

same problem

best umarex Was C225 (6" and 4" ) but they dumbass of umarex made it out of production in 2005

[baronzl]

@lopezorozco

no it is a gun project error

I had a colt with same problem .trown in the trash,another colt broken safety ,trown in garbage, last colt "dark operations" fire a foot above target at 167 yards and i had to adapt a cp88 adjust sight (different V rail) ,I removed all the black ink from frame. It is a problematic pistol, some times clogged.Best reliable Umarex is C226 (targhet or not) ,shotts thousand of pellets without clugging ,indistructible, out of production.It is not the co2 left
