Anyone ever see an extended Magwell on a V-Bob? Can it be done...?

it would defeat the purpose of the bobtail. why would you want to do that?

yup, there was a guy that did a Heinie style weld on, blended it at the back to match the bobtail so it didn't increase the grip length...try to find pics....

Because I cant find a Dan Wesson Pointman in .38 super for competition purposes,...I would not want to do this but I do want the gun...so its either get quik without a magwell on the V-bob or settle for a 1911 in 9mm.

STI Trojan.

You can convert a 9mm to 38 super with a simple barrel recoil spring swap.

imhop 9mm makes a better choice, barss cheaper and easier to find once fired.

I just looked at a 9mm SA with Bomar set up yesterday,  they wanted $1049 NiB, it was nice, but would still need a few things before I would run it, magwell, extended mag release, and it was not a match barrel,...so last night went online to STI, looks like their Trojan is in in the same price range (1K),..looks like some std features you would find on higher priced guns.
GK, do you think the Trojan is a better overall comp gun, and what do you think about Bomar styled sights for competition over Novak?

Thanks,
