HERA ARMS 1911 PDW / carbine kit

[Neville]

After their clever Glock PDW conversion kit (to whichs quality I can attest personally) German manufacturer HERA ARMS has again put an interesting kit on the market which makes the venerable 1911 extremely versatile. Contrary to other handgun conversion kits on the market you are running your trusty reliable Glock/1911 system in the Hera Arms kit without the need to use another slide or barrel. For you poor SBR-law guys, it can be used without a buttstock (with a sling for support like the old Steyr TMP or a micro Uzi) or with a longer barrel and shroud. In a few minutes you are back to the plain vanilla 1911. But imagine that one with a longer 10mm/.45 Super barrel. It adds lots of railspace, makes mounting of a reddot sight easy and keeps the (hopefully) trusted reliability of the 1911 platform.

anybody else notice the Non-existent cut out for the ambi-safety???

u think someone would have thought of that at some point in the design process???

Gaping barrel hole deterrent? Yeah, ok, just like racking the action on a 12ga. makes them flee. If they see the "Gaping barrel hole", it should already be to late for deterrance.

is your humor switch stuck or what do you think a smily means?

I don't care what anybody says--that is cool as hell.

Interesting...but I'd still prefer an MP5 or a UMP45 for FA work.

[Neville]

Its not so much competition to FA machine guns (which civilians can't get), but more adding variety to the Glock/1911 plattform.

If you want to SBR the thing that means your 1911 frame would be the registered part since that is what has the serial number. Then if you wanted to take your 1911 across state lines for let's say competition and an afternoon shooting with friends, you could't without BATFE prior notification.

No thanks I think I will take the spare cash I have laying around and spend it on a 50 GI upper for my Glock 21.
