Well, I have been checking my finances, and I wanted to purchase an addon rail that would not require tapping into my kimber. I discovered expensive solutions, such as the Surefire MR07, and such, but cannt afford it at the moment. I came accross a rail system made by Command Arms, which fits on the 1911. I know next to nothing about it and it attaches Via allen keys to the trigger guard. I have personally never seen this kind before. Would anyone be able to tell me if the quality on this item would last with basic shooting? Also, I had a question reguarding the TLR-1, by streamlight. The rail key itself is located up front, and not in the middle of the light, correct? It was just a bit confusing beacuse the tighting bolt is in the middle, and for it to fit correctly to the rail I want, it would have to be upfront, which is what I have seen so far. ANY information would be most helpfull. |

I can't seem to find anyone that either has or will admit to buying that rail from CAA. I have a ParaOrd 7.45 and am looking into rails also. I think I am going to end up going with the Dawson rail and Surefire x200. I want something that I don't have to fiddle around with constantly. This weapon will have to pull double duty as an off duty piece also, so I gotta be able to put it into regular holsters. I could do that with the Surefire adapter, but I would have to pop out the slide stop and switch them out just about daily. Not really something I wish to do. I think that CAA piece would be fine for a HD gun, but I think you are going to catch hell finding a holster to fit it. About the only thing you can hope for is one of the larger universal nylon holsters to fit. |
| I was thinking about the x200, just a bit out of my range lol. In your opinion, do you think a rail mounted to the trigger guard should be sturdy enough? Ive seen a few that go that way rather than the slide stop. I just want to make sure there will be no rattle or shaking. |
