So its not the same model "out" there right now, its a "CA" model. I wonder if its ready to ship to "CA" yet?

Nope not ready. They must had just enough to have them tested. Word is that they are 3 months from being shipped.

The MSRP for the regular one is $359.95. I hope the CA model is not more then that.

I saw a tv spot with a rep from ATI. He said that you can do a reverse conversion by adding a .45 slide, and mag. Will that be ca legal?

I heard that the frame is Aluminum. I wonder if it would hold up to a .45ACP?

Saw this in the 1911 forum. These parts should be interchangeable w/ actual 1911's:
Barrel Bushing
Front & Rear Site
Hammer
Trigger
Grip Safety
the Whole Main Spring Housing
Thumb Safety
Sear
Disconnector
Sear Spring
Grip Panels (but not the screws because they're in metric)
Mag Release
Sear Pin
Hammer Pin
Plunger Tube
Plunger Spring

This was a smart move by ATI. There are going to sell a crap ton of these things, including the 1 or 29 I buy.

Ummm ... NO ... suppressors are legal are fairly cheap here ...

pin the cap to the barrel.

Buy one and shoot the sh1t out of it -- that's what I do with mine. All the coolness of shooting a 1911 and cheap ammo too.

when all hope was lost to get a 1911 in .22 thats not kimber, they go and add this on my birthday. it must be a sign

I love shooting my GSG 1911. So much fun to shoot cheap .22LR ammo through.

The only bad thing.... extra magazines are expensive for it ($28 each).

I don't know how you can make the GSG 1911 into a .45 since the .45 mag will not even come close to fitting into the mag well.

In order to do mine as a single-shot, we had to shave down a .45 sled quite a bit in order for it to even fit into the GSG mag well. When I've accidently grabbed a .45 1911 mag and tried to shove it into my GSG (when I grabbed the wrong gun at the range... looks like my Kimber in the dark), there's no way it will go in there all the way. Fits maybe half the way in.

Great news....I'm on this! Need to find a dealer now.

Great news!

@DaveFJ80, how does it eat WM bulk? Reliable or takes some tweaking?

I've had mine for almost a year and have fired in excess of 4,000 rounds of Walmart Federal bulk pack through it. Mine eats it like candy.

You guys are going to love these out there. The GSG 1911 is a great little plinker. Mine has been very reliable and accurate.

Good to hear! I am in the market for a 22lr pistol. GF has a mosquito and that thing is a piece... (already tried CCI and various ammo)
Its between this or the Ruger 22/45 now

Mine actually doesn't like Federal bulk ammo. It'll eat up CCI ammo (Mini Mags and Blazer), but just doesn't like Federal bulk ammo. I've tried 6 different value pack boxes and at anytime, with any of my 6 GSG mags, I'll get all sorts of FTF's or FTE's using Federal bulk ammo. My 15-22 eats up the Federal so I just use it in that.

Not sure if just mine does that, nor do I really care about shipping it to ATI to see if they can fix anything. CCI Blazer is the same price as Federal bulk ammo so I just use that and that's ran 100% with approx 600 rounds through it.

[BANG BANG]

Awesome news!! I'll be getting 2 when available

It's going to be an agonizing 3 month wait. I can barely wait out the 10 day gun jail period.
