Well guys and gals I am having Arnel at Rock Island make me a new LongSlide.

Geeze Mike are you trying to compete with Auto Mag and Ole Lefty.

And at least tell us what you are going to have done to it.............

Off the top of my head:

Sent Arnel the following parts:

1. EB beavertail
2. Smith and Alexander main spring housing/magwell
3. Fusion disco, sear, sear spring, msh spring
4. I used the new Wilson Hammer, Concealment, Bullet Proof
5. Wilson extended slide stop
6. Kimber ambi thumb safety
7. Grips I purchased off the 1911 forum
8. Wilson 3 hole trigger
9. Fusion ejector and extractor

Arnel will be checkering the front strap to 20 lpi this will match the S&A magwell. He is also blending all of the parts. Frame, slide, barrel, guide rod, and spring by Rock island. The slide will have the standard LPA rear adjustable sight and a FO front sight.

I still have not finished my Hi Cap Long Slide so I am thinking of refinishing both this new LS and the Hi Cap in hard chrome from Metaloy.

What do you guys think?

If I purchased a LS every month I will never catch-up with AutoMag and Ole Lefty.

I was not aware that they provide such service using other manufacturer parts. If you do not mine me asking you what do they charge for that service.

You really need to call Arnel and speek with him on pricing.

To tell you the truth I don't even know what he is going to charge me.
