LaZouche Custom airsoft TM Les Baer Monolith 1911 Pt 2.

This is the second part to my Les Baer 'Monolith' 1911 custom build project. I have yet to fully test her but she is at present light stroking (no sniggering at the back lol), which means every other pull of the trigger seems to only allow a half measure of gas to fire from the mag into the BBH hence 'light stroke'. I have had this problem before but it seems to correct itself after a while so here's hoping, either that or its open her up time and see whats going on.

Potted history:
The real steel Les Baer Monolith is has a lengthened dust cover version of his standard Premier II 1911, adding additional weight up front helps over come muzzle flip when firing, this is where the barrel raises up upon discharging a round and causes fast follow up shots to be inaccurate. IPSC demands accuracy at all costs so Les came up with this.
Its a mean looking gun with its slab sided apperance and is the only long dust cover version of a 1911 made by any real steel manufacturer, as the Infinity and STI types use extended guide rods with reverse plugs and bull barrels not Browning's original design short gude rod and stopped plug, hence they are not true 1911s. Splitting hairs aside, this is a beautiful looking gun and has an awe about it all its own.

The project:
As you can see the gun is now complete but pending a proper test. Its been sprayed with grey primer first then two light coats of matt black car spray. The Engraving has been done and a fibre optic front sight has been added (not a standard fitment to LB pistols other than the 'Boss') plus front cocking serrations. She cycles well and has shown no problems with the extended dust cover rubbing against the slide...yet ;-)

If you should have any questions about this or my other videos please leave a comment or PM me. Thank you for watching.

@deceptivepanther

Many thanks for the compliment my friend but I have to admit im not happy with this one yet as she is inconsistent in firing power and may well need to be stripped again to solve the problem...oh well :-(

@perreterecon

Opps! must have been tired lol. No, use metal grey primer on metals.

Though to be honest ive used the plastic one with metal slides and frames and had no problems.

[perreterecon]

@LaZoucheCustomshop ok, so, you can use the same plastic primer also for the metals

[LaZoucheCustomshop]

@perreterecon

I use 'Halfords' own brand plastic primer.

Grey for black finish coat and white for silver finish coat.
