Pachmayr Dominator 1911 Conversion.

[ARRRR-15]

Anyone know anything about this 1911 single shot conversion?

I believe it's a Pachmayr Dominator conversion. I almost bought one on ebay a couple of years ago. Are they any good? Do they do any damage to the frame of the 1911?

I'd like to know too. If they are good to go it would be nice to have someone out of state put a bunch of these on STI and other non-approved frames due to the single shot exemption.

You read my mind.

Pachmayr Dominator

Excellent!! Very accurate and can handle powerful cartridges. Sierra Reloading Manual in Single Shot Pistol section gives loading data for 308 Win, shot from Dominator. I own two of these, both in 308 Win and plan to rebarrel one in 6.5x47 Lapua, 100-120 grs bullets should generate a lot less recoil with probably even better accuracy. Shot several hundreds 308s and did not notice any damage to the frame. Too bad it is not in production any more

I posted a WTB for one months ago for the purpose of bringing in single shot pistols

Springfield made something similar that they called a SASS





I've got both, other then a balance difference they both seem to be equally accurate.

Does that hook hanging out the bottom of the mag well have something to do with the SASS system? It seems like it could be a little obnoxious hanging down there like that.

Are the SASS setups still in production?

sorry the SASS has been out of production for awhile.

the hook is necessay as it unlocks the action to load and unload the gun, just pull back on it and the action opens.
