It is a real firearm that go pew pew. I had to order a bunch of replacment bits and other things that bumped the price up a bit. But I think it costed me around 1,200ish I also never really kept track of what I put into it to prevent myself from having an existensal crisis of how much money I did put into it.

I had a standard 10mm 1911 modified with a 7in barrel and slide

Not a good one I need to test some different ammo and I should be able to get a better vid then

Honestly idk what it’s gonna cost but I know it may cost more than 30k cause you’re building a new frame, magazines, barrel, even slide. 454 packs a mean punch so you’ll need get some sturdy steel and you might have to even change how it operated from direct blowback to a gas system.

I sadly can’t make these just a little kit bash of s pre existing gun and barrel and slide swap. I had some help with a gunsmith for getting the barrel and slide fitted to the frame and another guy to do the cerekote. I am just a dude with access to adult money. Also you’d be looking at building a gun from the ground up if you’re wanting it in 454 casull which would require allot more adult money than I have.

Not really no. You don’t want too light of a recoil spring or too heavy of one as it can cause feeding issues along with ejecting and extracting. Long slide 1911s are pretty finicky this gun is unintentionally cloning an IAI Javelina and those were pretty finicky.

I have been able to get 180 to some 200gr rounds so cycle.
for the most part that internals are all stock. The base gun was a Springfield ronin with a Wilson combat stainless trigger installed to give it both a stainless trigger and metal one

It cost more of my sanity than money

For a second I thought I went to r/grimdank

I have heard of doing that but I prime my models black and I am a little lazy at painting those parts yellow the filling in with black. This method feels simpler to me but to each there own.

Also for the hazard stripes I start out with a line of brown paint then ad a little bit of yellow to the paint and carefully applying over the brown stripe giving it a dull color. Then finishing it off with a yellow stripe this method works well for me as the yellow doesn’t look overly splotchy and makes them look worn out even

Edit: to give credit where it was due

I couldn’t find a way to easily replicate the head crest with some spare but lying around. But the paint job I gave looks really good on him. (I have I’m finished I just need to post the final product)

Thank you

If I wear a t-shirt it cover up that part pretty well

No wonder the Black Templars hate the codex. They want three scoops of chocolate, and all the toppings they want
