Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I really wondered if the rumors were true, and if I wanted to spread the info as I do not think they will last long, once stateside. I was informed from multiple individual's at shot show EAA was said to FINALLY bring in the Domina after much tease from the Italians. At Shot EAA claimed "within 6 months." I wanted to have a more definite answer so I went straight to the horse. I am still emailing further questions with "clay" about what price point and possible included accessories. It is a possibility it may come set up much like the GT X. Dot, Mount, Racker, grips, mag well ect. At this point I would like to believe it will actually happen....

Posvar Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I have been looking at these and now you post this! A Domina in full race open form would be something I would buy this year. Keep us posted please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 I will do that. I'm waiting for another response email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I wonder if anyone got pictures or video of the samples at shot show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 They did. This is what was sent to me from a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 That dustcover is very long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnit Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 It looks like the dust cover is the standard length that's on the Limited gun, and then they notched out the comp to fit that frame. Maybe they felt the gun shot a little flatter with the extra weight on the frame, who knows. If people don't like the extra weight, they can remove some of that dust cover.

Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Think Limited frame, GT topend, domina comp, and regular barrel. I wish I could see top of slide. Popple holes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 I wonder if some one could just build something similar? Maybe better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apolo Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Why not? Domina is just a straight walled barrel. You could just use a domina comp, dill tap frame, and use probably any Tanfo comp by cuting cone portion off. Index off longer guide rod or pin it like Domina comp.

Mlussoro Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Can’t wait ! Wonder where ya got pic from lol!. No poppel holes in barrel, significantly better comp design than GT , longer frame to keep muzzle rise to min, short slide for faster cycling. This can be replicated as I dropped a GT upper in my limited frame. Either way I call first dibs!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limited frame, Stock 3 upper, Domina Comp and a 6" barrel cut and threaded might get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billthemarine2862 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 I dont believe you can just thread a barrel for a Domina Comp. I was considering buying one a while back and Joe at PD said the Domina Comp requires a custom bushing to mate it to a barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mlussoro Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Might have been fitting barrel to cone fit slide? Only one way to find out parts ordered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apolo Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 Yeah having to do anything really out side of timing and threading a straight barrel comp is probably unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was based off using it in a gold team application...... since the domina does not have the required taper the gold team slide would require.

texasdawg Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 This was my attempt at using a domina comp, seemed like it worked okay. It started life as a gold custom and the stock comps are not good with too many holes in them. I cut the cone off a V12 comp and mated it to the domina comp and worked it over in the mill and pinned it together. I switched to running 2011's in open and it just hangs out in the safe now. The bronze framed gun is a 40 caliber gun built with a turned down and threaded 6 inch barrel on a match frame and limpro slide. It has an enlarged, old style, Tanfo comp on it I purchased off a site known for having old gun parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasdawg Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The frame in the pic from SHOT show looks like a hunter or a gold medal match frame. These frames are available as a whole gun. Probabley cheaper just to wait and buy a factory made one,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
