Pimp my gun

The stock blocks the grip, grip safety, and even some of the hammer/slide action.

Real 1911 stocks are fitted to a gun like this, to avoid that.

What about this?



And what? no comments on my cannon?

I imagine the hammer would have a slot in the top of the stock to sit in when it's cocked and that you certainly wouldn't have a grip safety on this if it was trying to be real; when I was looking at it, I thought of the 1911's grip safety as more like some sort of attachment bracket that's part of the top of the stock. The reduced grip area would probably be managable since the pistol body's 1.34 times it's normal size [IIRC] to match up with the parts of the VSS; if you have the pistol parts as the normal-sized ones you'd just end up having to use a really weird hold. Though if you go that route the stock's probably too small, so it's going to have to be the giant 1911.

The rest is handled by the internal wizard who sits in the forward mag well and waggles his fingers to make the bullets move from the M1911's barrel to the suppressor. It makes perfect sense.

You never know

They added the M1A1 Thompson.



It needs a foregrip and drum magazine.

And a Cutts for people who believe in such things.



Shame there's no button for automatically aligning front and rear sights, maybe it's worth suggesting.

Here's mine

Incidentally, a question: what exactly is the thing on the far right in the 'foregrips' list?

Also, presenting the ultimate in modern domestic automation, the You Damn Kids Get Off My Lawn Bot.



As a note; the slide of the 1911 doesn't layer properly, because the hammer is part of the frame; if you have the slide back, either the hammer will be in front of the rear of the slide, or the front of the slide will be in front of the frame.

Edit: I may have got a little carried away here.

Nice tank. Back to the tommies. We got a nice set of Tommies. And each one after the other has more customization. I'm real proud of my Tommy
