Got to see one :)
 

Customer came into my store today and brought his Detonics Combat Master to show me. S/N was 33**... (original Detonics)

The little piece was more like a war club than gun. Very heavy for a small pistol.

Sorry, no photos.. Just wanted to share.

Kewl.

I wonder why they scalloped the back of the slide and mounted the rear sight so far forward on them.

Saw one at my LGS a month ago. One of the original Bellevue ones. $650 and it looked and felt different from most guns.

how different in size is it compared to an officers model? frame looks a lot shorter.

It is shorter than the Colt Commander. The barrel is either 3 or 3.5", not quite sure which. The rear sight being set forward on the slide makes it look even shorter, but I believe OAL is 6.75"

The biggest difference I noticed is the grip length. Holds 6 rnd mags. I have medium size hands and could barely get 3 fingers on it.

Despite it's compact size it is a heavy little beast. All steel.

Interesting video. Thanks.

They are also thiner than a normal 1911.

The newer ones have the sight at the rear of the slide
