Here it is with the carbine and my web gear:



Here is a close up showing the arched A1 back strap, wide spur hammer, and GI bakelite grips: Looks like the Ithaca I carried as an MP in the early 1970s...



I did about 50 rounds, and it easily held 2" off-hand at 10 yards. It also bounced pop cans with monotonous regularity, point shooting over the top of the slide. I forgot haw good a 1911A1 feels in the hand!

BTW, I use Google translations when I get stuck or can't remember a vocabulary word.

For Gunner: Dieses hier jetz ist meinen Karbiner und 1911A1 selbst-laden Pistole!

Looks good to me, RM. I do have a couple questions. Internet rumors state that USGI parts will swap only with some hand fitting. True? And could this be because Rock Island tolerances are tighter?

Hi Rangemaster,

now i`ve seen the Friend of your Carbine and think that it could be also a good friend of mine. Pretty 1911A1 and the Carbine is good looking too!

You understood my writing correct. The Translator engine made one little error and the sense of the sentence was different. But it was nice that phillydude made the work to understand it.

Regards

Gunner
