      Do you want an AOW or C&R SBS/SBR in CA?

            I assume you have a M1911 in .45 ACP. Please let us know how the two compare at the range. Please.

                  Wow that 50GI round is nearly obscene. Definitely let us know how it compares to the 1911.

                    I was seriously considering one of these but the ammo availability kinda scared me. There was one at a local shop that I was drooling over for awhile and the fit and finish of the pistol was excellent. Heck, I'm excited for you now! What is the lead time? Are you thinking about getting the .45acp conversion slide?

                      Guncrafter also makes a .50GI barrel/slide for the Glock 20/21 frame.

                        Does anyone know what pressures this operates at? off the top of my head, .45 ACP is somewhere around 21,000 psi and +p is something like 23,000-24,000.

                            Nice, that's a sweet pistol

                            Those bullets look like they are .45 caliber that ate too much

                              How much for a box of 50 rounds of this 50GI caliber, does anyone know the comparison balistics to say the 10mm vs 50GI caliber.
