Moriquende Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 (edited) I had forgot how sexy the 5" Experts were Edit: I've been wondering how a 4.3" SVI would look with a 5" Infinity slide, could some kind soul please try it and upload a pic?

mythe123 Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 (edited) I just got a Silver SVI 5.0 Limited HW, the kind with the greyish-silver/nickel finish. I'm trying to find a metal slide for it, does anyone know if there are any that are the same color and finish? If not, what kind of black slide would look good with it? Thanks!

Romulus Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 I though that I might as well post a few pictures of my new Hi-Capa project. I just got this gun off e-bay and so far it is upgraded with the following: Shooters Design Infinity Slide (5 inch) Guarder Metal Barrel Guarder 150% Hammer Spring Guarder 150% Recoil Spring Guarder Enhanced Loading Nozzle Guarder High Flow Valve(s) Nine Ball Dyna Piston Head Nine Ball 6.03mm Tightbore (112mm) Nine Ball Air Seal Chamber Packing My plan for this gun is to build it up into something that I can use as a primary in skirmishes. I already have a PDI 6.01 7 inch barrel and a G&G SS-100 to cover it but I still need to get a PDI adapter for the suppressor. Next Hong Kong order I am thinking that I'll pick up some Blue SD grips (since I hate stock Hi-Capa grips) as well as a mag well and an extended slide catch. I am new to Hi-Capa's so if anyone has any suggestions/comments I would be happy to hear them... Link to post Share on other sites

aerodrew Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 (edited) This is my Hi-Capa, there are many like it but this one is mine. Also I just finished building it today. The lighting isn't that great in these pics, but I could always touch them up in photoshop. This gun is made almost entirely of aftermarket parts, save for some internals. The breakdown of those parts is as follows: Slide, Barrel and Chamber: Shooter's Design Springfield V12 Inner Barrel: PDI 7 Inch 6.01 tightbore Hop Up Rubber: Nineball Air seal packing(the purple one) Loading Nozzle reinforced by Guarder Nineball dyna-piston inside loading nozzle Trigger: PDI 3 hole Hammer: PDI ring hammer(modified) Magazine Valve: Tanio Koba High-flow BB in hammer spring compartment Freedom Art G-MT frame with comp block(note the scope mount is not attached) Tanio Koba One-touch joint hider with short compensator(this one was pretty hard to get, but covers up the inner barrel mostly) Optics: Burris Fastfire mounted to Shooter's Design Sightbase(very hard to find a retailer with these in stock) Grip: Tanio Koba Finger-fits tactical grip This gun sounds like a cannon, is very accurate at moderate distances. Haven't cronographed it yet, but the muzzle velocity might be too high to discuss here. I went back and forth through dentrinity, redwolf, UNcompany, wgc, power edge and tokyo model for about 7 or 8 months for the parts, and I searched countless online optics retailers for about 3 months before I finally got the fastfire sight. The case shown above is a laylax satellite designed for the hi-capa, but modified to fit the extended barrel and optics. I intend to try a hakko mkII or moiji zero multi-reticle sight on this gun in the future. Any comments or critiques welcome. Edited August 19, 2007 by aerodrew Link to post Share on other sites

Shard Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Looks ace mate though I'd personally not of combined the freedom art comp frame with the tk comp, and used a shorter ib instead. I like the optics, how much was the Burris? Link to post Share on other sites

I like the optics, how much was the Burris? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I used a 7 inch because I wanted the range and power, but I can see what you mean. The burris fastfire is about $200 at midwayusa where I got mine. Link to post Share on other sites

Romulus Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 Wow. Thats really come a long way. Really doesn't look anything like the original. Gonna krylon the silver screws, not sure if i should do the barrel and mag well as well. I think that a black mag well would look awesome as well as being pretty unique but thats just my two cents.

Where did you get it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Got it from Guns N Guys a while ago. First off, it is not metal. It's a high quality plastic and I have no problem running it on green. It looks nice and performs well, what more could I ask for? Link to post Share on other sites

my_plague_666 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 i hate to say it ocelot, but i prefer the orignial grips. blue makes it look to much like its built out of lego or something, it would look so much more menacing and cool if it didnt have grips the colour of a pre-school toy. plus the old grips give it a real sleek race-gun look IMO Link to post Share on other sites
Romulus Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I really think that grip colors end up being a matter of taste. I, for one, love the blue grips so much that I am getting one for my personal Hi-Capa project. Long live crazy colors on awesome guns. Also, Vicious is right, a black mag well would be really hot with that whole color scheme. Link to post Share on other sites

There's something about owing a 480 fps chunk of Lego that makes me happy. Link to post Share on other sites
