Dream 1911?

k9870 · #1 12-20-2010, 01:02 AM

earlier i saw:

saw a colt mk 4 commander 2 tone, with arched backstrap and short trigger. But in front of that short trigger, was another trigger, like the standard trigger you find on a sig/beretta/cz or such. So it had two triggers, one of them one that does not belong on a 1911 type auto. Im wondering why anyone would do this, and how it would work on a 1911 anyway?

Almost puked, wtf is this thing, wish i had my camera.

Ah okay. Colt and S&W still do theirs with the 4.25 inch barrel with bushing. A few high end custom makers still do it. I think once you get shorter than 4.25, it has to have a bull barrel. I don't really like the look of the 4" Commander, 4.25 all the way.
