new tm 1911 variant?
 
found this on a japanese blog, neat to see them reusing the detonics slide.

EDIT: here's the marui page for it.

Redwolf posted pictures earlier this week on FB, no info as usual.

airsoftnews.eu hasn't posted on it yet. BUT

I always love smaller frames, heck I love 1911s period, but I HATE that trigger.

Nice to see TM releasing a 1911 that comes with the extended magwell. But they're totally ripping off my style, I've been rocking a full frame with a detonics slide and a magwell for while now.

I'm looking forward to shooter's design metal bodies for this, a metal lower frame with a square triggerguard would be sweet, I can make Brad Pitt's 1911 from Seven :D

my thoughts exactly, you predicted the future!

Ooo I must have those rear sights! Detonics sights are so useless!

You can also outfit it with the new 40 round TM mag too! They had it on a Hyper Douraku video posted on the zero one UK forum and it fit the TM foliage warrior pistol.

Disco_Dante February 27th, 2011 15:14

The 40 round mag is out!?


And of course it would fit the foliage warrior... it should fit anything TM that takes a 1911 mag, even a detonics frame should be able to accept it.

I notice that TM is doing a lot of "mixing and matching" with existing products nowadays, as opposed to constantly making new products.

still not as bad as WA IMO, everytime I see "New Products by WA" on an airsoft news site, I sigh. New VARIATIONS of already existing products, really? this is like your 40th variation of a 1911/Beretta/whatever dudes!

at least we know that TM is coming with a few new models in the near future ... *cough" XDm ... M&P ...HK45 *cough* I want *cough*.

1911s are very good sellers though, can't blame them.

that square bit might be part of the strike front thing.

So it's a 1911 with new body kit...

corrected. ;)

Looks more like they ruined a perfectly good 1911 style by turning it more into a Hi Capa.

Except it isn't morbidly obese like the Hicapa is. Even with the TK grip I always found mine to be a little too fat for my hands.

They didn't ruin anything... It's not like they've stopped making 1911a1s in favour of churning these out.

Edit: Actually I'm not even sure what you're going on about. The only thing Hicapaish about this release is the trigger guard.

Anyone know if this is all metal?
