Accented with stunning and unique cuts, the lack of scalloping on the government length slide of this pistol is featured for increased reliability, durability and accuracy.

The full length extended frame continues the added reliability and accuracy features by allowing the slide to travel and be guided along the full length. The extended railed frame and dust cover reduce any areas that dirt can have a chance to enter, and thus, increasing the overall longevity and reliability of this piece.

An integrated rail is cut in to the extended frame for addition of any accessories such as tactical lighting or laser pointing systems.

The rear iron sight of this pistol is of the Bomar variety with both windage and elevation adjustments.

The iron sighting system is further enhanced with a fibre optic front sight, allowing faster target acquisition in low lighting conditions.

Also featured on this gun is a unique steel bushing & barrel system to continue in the reliability and accuracy of the gun. By preventing the tilting/rocking of standard tapered barrels, this gun achieves higher accuracy through a straight steel barrel, supported by a steel bushing which is interlocked with the slide and recoil spring guide rod bushing. Both the steel bushing, slide and steel outer barrel are manufacturered to very tight tolerances to ensure smooth yet precise movement.

An extended slim slide stop and deep checkered low-profile mag release has been used on this pistol to ease in faster reloads as well as to reduce the overall width of the gun. The slimmer profile aids in drawing speed by reducing the chances of anything getting caught on external adornments.

Continuing in the fast reaction slim profile theme of this gun, the safety has been reduced to a single side (right handed) safety and has also been lowered to a slimmer profile.

Excellent job!!!

Different and good <---a difficult combo to achieve. Nice pr0n too.

I want it. RIGHT NOW. who makes it?
Im not a fan of the colours however.

Thats an Illusion Custom Build Evo...

awww.
well it looks awesome anyway. Still dont like that grip colour though.

damn you for making me want a 2011 instead of a new 1911! I was hoping to get a single stacker to replace my aging para ord HRT

looks like something out of Appleseed or ghost in the shell, if you ask me ;)

impressive

Damn that must have cost a fortune... (May I ask the cost?)

On a side note beautiful gun!

Beautiful work Illusion. My only suggestion is to replace the rear sight. I knew the gun was Hi-Capa based only because I could see the M.R.P. on the side of the rear sight :mrgreen:
Now that I look at the gun again you should probably fill in the lower "screw-hole" on the grip as it looks like it's missing something.
I'm nitpicking though. Really impressive.

I just worked out the numbers and it costed me somewhere between $1000 and $1100.



I thought about placing a Doctersight mount in its place, but it ruined the clean and low profile look of the gun. If I can find another rear sight alternative, I may look in to it. I don't want the Nine Ball Combat Sight set as it's a pain to install and I already have it installed on one of my other Hi-Capas.

SVI guns typically leave that hole void. STI is more likely to use that location.

Absolutely beautiful. Something in a class all it's own.

Wonderful job on the descriptions for each of the pictures, as well as the pistol itself.

Kudos.
