Like the title said, I have this extra para P14-45 frame I'm thinking of converting to open, got most of the parts I need and since the big stick are easier to find now (MBX) as well but i'm still on fence whether to use the frame or fork out the extra cash and buy a 2011 frame. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

Did it come with a factory treaded barrel?

Will a Glock 17 or 19 be still production legal with an aftermarket thereaded barrel (e.g. lonewolfe barrels)? Thanks
-
contact Bevin of Grams engineering, faster and cheaper than most. I have two barrels so far he did for me, they work great.

I've looked at most of those threads over the past couple months and it generally leaves me confused. RIA makes various models within the same family and the accessories that fit one doesn't work in all of them. That is what has left me leary of buying anything because of the fit issues.
My best bet might be to track down some factory mags with the basepad already on them. They seem to be sold out everywhere.
dawson extension for para will work on your mags, however if you decided to put a magwell (dawson ice para magwell will fit) you will need the para p18 mags that are 18 rounders other wise the 17 rounders mag won't fit with the magwell
-
Hello: The plastic Tripp base pads can be made to work as well as the Metalform plastic base pads. They will sit almost flush with the magwell. The aluminum Tripp base pads can be made to fit also but it is easier to get the Dawson ones. For me the gap loads just as fast as the no gap. Going to try the Dawson IPSC aluminum magwell next. It has no plastic insert and is a little lighter than the ICE aluminum. Thanks, Eric
Eric,
have you tried the Dawson IPSC magwell yet? I'm thinking of doing same thing on my current 1911 project, please let me know how it is compare to the regular Ice magwell. Thanks

Here's a teaser of what's on the table! Everyone gets a chance at it!
nice
-
Wilson ETM with taller base pads ( I think they are .500) with dawson ice-gap works good for me.

tried my Para 40 slide last night on the 1911 frame with 45 ejector, it fit, a little tight but not binding, I will try it this weekend see how it goes.
-
I'm using a para frame so both barrel are ramp. Gun is currently set as 45, I will find out soon if the 40 upper will work, if not I guess I just have to change the ejector when switching uppers.
-
Almost same set up i'm trying to build but in 45acp & 40 cal. Building two different upper same lower same mag.

If you currently shoot Open with a racker, I think it could be beneficial to standardize your manipulations.
If you don't currently shoot Open with a racker, I would leave it off the Limited gun. I can't have one on a Single Stack or Prod gun, so I'd rather operate all those the same by pinching the front of the slide. Without a scope mount in the way I don't see a need for one...
this, specially if you are switching back and forth between single stack and limited on the same caliber.

I did exactly the same thing on my armscor/RIA 45acp, I had an extra 9mm slide (cheap one i think I got it from sarco, inc) bought another barrel from sarco @ $60 for a 9mm and what ever extra parts I have. Now this is just my plicking gun although I use it sometimes on local club match every now and then. All I need to do when I want to shoot the 45acp slide is change and ejector. Gun runs good so far @ 1k on the 9mm slide.

I ended up buying STI sear, Disco, Hammer and strut, will see how it works.
-
thx for all the info.
-
Im interested in coming to this event if anyone can give me an idea what is the nearest major airport and hotel accomodation? Thanks
-
good to know, I think I'll just buy the set. thx
-
When replacing/upgrading the factory sear to an aftermarket one, do I need to replace the Hammer as well? I always buy the complete kit on my other guns, this time I just wanna up upgrade my old range gun. Thanks
