Why doesn't your 1911 have the power of an M16 and the accuracy

You have 5 seconds to explain why you haven't bought a .460 Rowland drop-in conversion, which would allow your shitty $400 Filipino 1911 to fire an expensive proprietary cartridge with roughly the same power as a .44Mag.

Too bad AMT Hardballers are kind of crappy. a 7" longslide 1911 in .460 Rowland would be sexy.

>why you haven't bought a .460 Rowland drop-in conversion
Because you have to have a fully heat treated slide, which not all , especially cheap 1911s have.

There's also the money issue.

because

A. i don't have a .45 1911.

B. i already have a gun with the power of a .44 magnum. it's a .44 magnum.

was thinking about the conversion kit for the g21

>>29744552

I'm getting a 9.5-11 inch barrel AR-15 in 10mm or this meme caliber, which one and why? So far 10mm is winning out for its penetration.
>>
>>29745822
10mm is already a meme, so it's basically meme v. meme.

Maybe throw 5.7 in there and make it a 3-way.

10mm would be a better choice overall
>>
>>29744552
because your frame life will be cut down to about 5% of normal

you think 10mm is hard on a 1911 frame?

lol

Rock island just had a double stack 10mm come out. You could check that.

Its a little overblown, helps if you know how to check the gun out. Even the shitty ones make good donor gun as long as the slide and frame are good.

Almost picked up a compensated hardballer a while back but I had already exceeded my fuck around budget

>>29745822
As a big supporter of "because I can" guns, blow back 10mm ARs are retarded.

460 rowland is literally a con for people who don't understand guns.
all you need for 460 performance in a 1911 is a square firing pin stop, a 24 lb hammer spring, an 18-20 lb recoil spring and a compensater.
of your barrel has enough chamber support, you can load to some scary pressures just using standard 45 acp brass, otherwise 45 super brass from Starline will get you to 40,000 psi no worries. you don't actually need to buy some bullshit "conversion kit" or "Proprietary" brass and ammo.

TL;DR
If you buy 460 Rowland anything, you are a sucker.

>>29749421

probably better than the god awful hogue grip on mine.
>>
>>29744552
The real question is why there are no 7.62x25 1911s, only conversions that only sorta work.
>>
>>29749421
this poster loves pachmeyer probably.
disregard him

It looks like they put a wheel in the 10mm pistol from the Fallout games.

Be still my beating hand.
>>
>>29749467

the finger grooves suck, the grip texture sucks, and the grip geometry puts my strong hand in an odd position that destroys the web of my hand when shooting anything hotter than powderpuff loads.

I really want a .460 Rowland kit for my G20 buy I have to buy a G21 slide first
Should I just buy a whole G21?

Because I don't need a Special Snowflake cartridge.

>>29749507
I think that's the 10mm pistol from the original game
>>
>>29749642
If it is, it's a couple boolets short. It holds 12 rds, that wheel has space for 8.
>>
>>29744552
Because I don't want my frame to crack after firing 10 boxes of ammo.
>>
>>29745822
10mm is a powerful round to shoot out of a handgun, but I'll never understand why someone would want to use it in a rifle. Use a rifle caliber! Like, holy fuck. Do you even understand the difference?
>>
>>29749342
>460 rowland is literally a KIT for people who don't RELOAD
ftfy
Not all .45 pistols are created equal so that's a bit presumptuous on your part. The brass is the way it is to avoid accidents just like .357 in a .38. Then there is the matter of sourcing ammo that hot. .960 on the other hand can fuck off for being nothing new and having a retarded name.

>>29749442
Been done, it was shit and here in the US at least it's kinda pointless, even for fun.

>>29749787
Thats the original Colt 6520 from 1 and 2.the shit heap from fallout 3 forward is the lazy bastardized deagle covered in scaffolding know as the N99.

I wish the newer fallouts would mention it, or bring it back. I hate the N99 in FO4. Terrible redesign. Should have asked a modder to use this.
>>
>>29751505
I can see what they we're going for and I'm sure we would all love a scaled down deagle in 10mm but the Scale is atrocious and their futurization sucks. Its really a lazy, ugly design.

The whole approach they took with 3 and 4 weapons with the uh...regional designs was fucking gay.
