    You can buy a stock 1917 anywhere, but you can`t buy a one of a kind custom 1917 anywhere.

    They are all six shot--try it if you don't believe it . Most only figure it to be a five shot because they used 5 shot strippers from the '03 because the govt. didn't bother to design an odd one for the 1917 only , but the mag will hold six .

    only big issue i see, is the muzzle brake isnt centered, could be a bad thing when fired..
    i used to make, install and sell brakes...if your off, it will cause probblems.

    Wow, it really does take all kinds. I bet the recoil is unpleasant.

    I probably did not sell because C&R people can't buy it. By definition of the C&R laws, the gun must be in original configuration if the Feds want to make a Federal case of it. They will over look change of grips, refinish and different sights but this pup seems over the pale.
