    1911 chambered in .50 GI

    .50 GI 1911

    Does anyone have one, shot one, or know where to get just an upper without buying a $3000 1911?

    Ive seen conversion kits for the glock21 all over, just no 1911.

    I think it would be cool just not practical, you know....busting it out when all of your friends are bragging about their "cool" toy.

    From my understanding it isn't a standard dimension frame.

          I passed on the 1911 option -

          Although they do offer a .45 slide to go with the .50GI setup.

          I enjoy my "G50" -

          The tolerances are much more precise than the factory slides -

          So my groups are tighter with the larger round.

          I added a mag extension for 10 rounds of 300gr hollow points moving at 1027 ftsec...



          The case is slightly wider than a .45ACP -

          .05 wider to be exact -

          And obviously holds more powder if you're reloading.

          Some guys are pushing 250gr over 1300ftsec....

            That's gonna leave a mark!

            I've come across the odd .50 GI casing while policing my brass. Attsa nice...
