Workingspy Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'm taking these two for a spin tomorrow Hey man, so what is deal with your sliver frame? By the why both those guns look killer. Im just asking because it looks the same as mine, and as far as I can find out there is no model of gun that comes with that frame design. Is yours checkered under the trigger guard, and is it drilled for the magwell screw? Those are two things ive found different on my frame from other large comp frames.

Workingspy Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Hey there can anyone thinknof a reason why I couldn't cut down a long slide Hennings guild rod to fit in my shorter Limited .45 slide? Or would anyone be interested in selling a short Hennings or EG one to me? Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 I can't think of one. I cut the guide rods to fit my CZs and Open guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Just an FYI - In a conversation with Henning, he said his long guide rod could be cut down. Edited February 21, 2014 by Bamboo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Evan I don't know how I missed your question Evan The chrome frame is from an IFG import "Limited"; it has a short dust cover and a straight barrel rather than a cone lock. The cool thing is that the serial number is 00014! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Workingspy Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Well it must be a little shorter as the stock guild rod is definitely shorter then my long slide Hennings cone fit one. Heres a pic of the set up. Ill be posting an extensive post hopefully by the end of the weekend on the five slides and the two gun we got and how they work, fit and what was needed to build these guns and all the modificatiion needed to make them work. Looks like I might try cutting down the guild rod, or ill look for a used one first. Dont know yet Cheers, Evan Edited February 21, 2014 by Workingspy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cool thing is that the serial number is 00014! Interesting. Im still just trying to get a better idea of where this frame came from. It is different as it is the shorter drilled and tapped comp frame, it also has the checkering under the trigger guard with I have not seen before either.

kneelingatlas Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 I know my Hunter frame does not have checkering on the trigger guard, my 1992 competition small frames do and I'd have to check the chrome IFG frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Workingspy Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Our Hunter, Stock 2 and Stock 3 frames do not have it but they are all new, maybe this one (1993) is just an older design they have since moved away from. Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealio Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Evan, that picture shows a Stock II top end, which is 1/4 shorter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Workingspy Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Evan, that picture shows a Stock II top end, which is 1/4 shorter You are right the Limited slide has the cut outs on the top, I didnt realize the Stock 2 was shorter then the Limited though. Or do you mean the Stock 2 and the Limited are both 1/4" shorter then a long slide. Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealio Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) The Limited, Limited Pro, and Match are "long slide" - 4.75" Stock I, Stock II are "standard slide" - 4.5" So yeah just cut off 1/4", polish, and go. Or leave it hanging out and mount a tassel on it or something.. Edited February 21, 2014 by Nealio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savageman25 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 (edited) Can someone tell me if this is a small or large frame. It's an older model and I don't know enough about them to differentiate by looks. All I can tell is that it has the curved trigger guard, comp barrel, and shorter dust cover compared to the newer ones. Well crap. This site wont let me post URL links yet. I'm still to noobish. But if someone types in witness hunter in gunbroker it will come up. It's price is 700 dollars last I looked.

kneelingatlas Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=395460581 It's an old style, large frame, 10mm Hunter, actually a pretty cool find. It has a long slide (4.75" barrel) with another 1.25" threaded (M15x0.75) into a comp with no holes and a blank comp with front sight. Like a sight tracker the front sight is mounted on the barrel, so it moves very little while the slide cycles. You could very easily trim back the barrel and put a two port comp on it if you were so inclined. The only downside is that the frame has no provision for a mag well like a modern competition frame.

Workingspy Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Very cool gun, we just bought a newer version 10mm large frame hunter and love it. Well ours is minus the cool sight tracker setup, thats awsome. My frame I just posted pics also came with no provisions fora magwell, but I pit one on and it holds tight. I am concidering drilling and tapping a hole for it however, would hate to fall or drop it and have the magwell fall off . Cheers, Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
