Guncrafter no name

[willis68]

I think I will get one of these within the next year, I really like this 1911:)Guncrafter Industries : The Pistol With No Name

[Guest Lester Weevils]

Interesting. That GI 50 reminds of the old saying, "I carry a .45 because they don't make a .46." Problem solved!

[Desert Rat]

With the 45 conversion and 5 mags for each the price is close to 4K! The remaining question is model 1, 2 or 3?

If you are going to spend that for a pistol the least you could do is get the BIG ONE with the ability to also shoot 45 acp. That way you can practice with WWB.

Where is the drooling smiley? I am getting excited thinking about it!!!!! Send the ambulance I think this is the Big one!

4k!??? Anyone rather have a Wilson Combat and some money left over for ammo?....lol

I'm not seeing anything that would make me want to buy this instead of 3 Kimber's or a Wilson Combat. Ugly grips, finish looks kinda shabby in pics, so imagine what it looks like in person, solid trigger looks like what you would get on a Rock Island Armory.....I'm just not that impressed.

But it is a 50 Caliber with a 45 conversion! Can you get that in a Kimber or Wilson? I could get a S&W 500 W 10.5 barrel but would need to buy pants with deeper pockets for concealed carry and a bionic arm to shoot it.

[Kenstaroni]

Ahh, ok I didn't see that. We'll sign me up for a Desert Eagle then...lol Yeah the S&W 500's are hand cannons, there's no concealing one of those. I thought they made them in short barrels too? I've seen people on TV who live in Alaska that carry them for defense against Bears.

Anyway, a 1911 is suppossed to shoot a .45. I wouldn't have it any other way... It's a cool gun I guess, but is only going to appeal to a small crowd of people who have 4k to blow on a hand held rocket launcher.

And of course Desert Rat, you might be one of them...lol

You guys are obviously not looking at the same pistol that I linked, the No Name is a .45ACP that is the one I will get, MSRP is $2495.00 I will get it for less than that I am not interested in the .50 with the .45 conversion, I like my 1911's in .45ACP only

#NN45 “Pistol with no Name”, .45 ACP (5" - full size) $2495 Taken from Guncrafters price list

I did shoot one of their .50 models, they make one fine 1911 to say the least

The finish is melonite, it is not made for looks it is made for durability. I shot a GI .50 and the fit and finish impressed the heck out of me,You would cringe if you saw how shabby the Diamond Black looks on my Nighthawk pistol but it does what it is supposed to do. To me anyway this is a perfect no nonsense pistol

I like the grips as well as anything about it.

[Desert Rat]

My point was the 50 with the 45 conversion wold be my preference rather than just the custom 45. I was adding extra mags for both rounds and the conversion kit along with ammo. The Pistol with no name is nice but I would go the extra for the versatility. Along with model 2 for the rail. You can upgrade the model 1 and 2 finish and grips.

I'd prefer walnut grips and a black trigger. I'm not downing your taste but the white on the grips made me go OMG!

[willis68]

When I get one I will put these Black Strider Gunner grips on it Already have the grips, just need to buy the pistol for them
