Do you have a build that's a mash-up of inspiration from multiple clones?
Did you mash up a bunch of parts from your bin that might have been used in the wild? This is the thread for you. If it's in the wild or made by a known military supplier (KAC, DD, G, etc.) game on. Optics, go crazy. The reality is strike eagles are being used downrange, there's no clone police here. For those with absolute purist clones, post them, but please don't shit on the guys just having fun slapping things together. Post pictures, talk about parts, have fun.

 If the boog hits, I'm gonna bring a little class along with the MRE. It's rumored that Daniel Defense is contemplating resurrecting the H9. I always thought it was a cool design. It was sad to see Hudson bite the dust just like Legion Firearms. Temple, Texas is my hometown but damn we can't seem to keep mfgs in business. |

But at least one company is/was producing replacement small parts, so there is support. |

These days it seems like a lot don't take the 1911 seriously because of it's capacity. I'm curious to know if the 1911's capacity was a concern for those that could choose between either in the field. |

I'm curious to know if the 1911's capacity was a concern for those that could choose between either in the field. @FlyingMailman Back in Oct 03', I carried 3 tuff boxes full of M1911A1s (250ea) from Ft Campbell (pulled out of depot) to Baghdad. Old and new guys fought over them. I did my first CQB training at Mott Lake (Bragg) in 86'. We did CQB with M16A1s, M3A1 SMG and the M1911A1s then. My pistol belt in Iraq then carried either a M9 holding 106 rounds, 15+1 rds in gun and six spare 15 rd mags. Swapped pistol and mags the M1911A1 carried 105 rds of .45, 8+1 in gun and 12 spare 8 rd mags. Two single stack 1911 mags can be carried in one double stack M9 pouch. M12 holster fits both guns. Earlier when in Haiti 95'. Under my blouse in a shoulder holster was the 1911 and pistol belt held the M9. Would do the same in Iraq later when in a gun turret. Shoulder holster was always quicker to pull out a handgun then reaching below the turret and trying to get a pistol from belt rig out. That's my experience. Never had to shoot anyone with a 1911. Came close one time while in Kentucky off duty and almost shot a Iraqi with a suppressed M9 in 91' but then dug out my M16A2/M203. 5.56mm and 40mm HEDP work better. CD |

CD Thanks for the reply, that's very interesting to hear. So it sounds like despite the decreased magazine capacity of the M1911A1, it was still widely coveted over the M9. Did the guys over there who had to use them find the .45 to be more effective than the M9's 9mm? These days it seems like capacity is king and that despite 9mm being smaller it is preferred because you can have 15+1 or more. Also, I heard of USP 45's being used over there in that time frame. Is there any truth to that? |

Problem was lack of spare parts and armorers knowing the older weapon systems such as the 1911, M14 and M79. Never saw any USPs in .45 SEALS were running the 45C in 16' in Iraq however.
