Uncompany has a new aluminum slide and out barrel for the marui 1911. Doesnt look to bad either. Looks like a better choice then the TaiWan brand for just 40 bucks more.

Would be good if their was a frame aswell.

Do these slides made for Marui 1911s fit the WE version?

[hendrix]

well if the WE is an exact copy i dont see why it shouldnt.

[Shroomalistic]

Im hoping it works too. I wont need a metal lower if it fits my WE. Damn it, im gonna have to sell something here soon.

I believe someone stated in a review that the TM slide doesn't cycle properly on the WE frame, which would lead me to believe that the TM and WE slides are not quite identical.

Do I have to use a stronger recoil spring when I install such a metall slide?
If yes, which one is the right? Thanx for help.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I tried mixing and matching slides from my Marui HiCapa 5.1 and a WE baby HiCapa just for fun. The WE slide on the Marui frame worked for a little while, then somehow shredded the little spring inside the plastic gas valve thingy. The Marui slide would not cycle on the WE frame at all. Not recommended.
