It all started with a conversation about fitting a 1911 into a German holster when a guy in Danemark pointed out these...

Two of us have ordered them to share the postage, I ordered mine to go along with my FG loadout as I've since found the Vis was issued to the police and paratroopers.

So I'm now thinking of converting a Bell 19111 into a Vis but those gucci looking grips look like they are going to be a pain to get right, so any offers of advice would be welcome! I am aware that this started off in life as the Polish Radom.
Try here for the grips - http://www.e-gunparts.com/product.asp?c ... SKU=229030 or http://www.gun-parts.com/raven/

These look to be similar holsters ? >

Never used the company, just happened to do a search after having read the thread, as I'm going to need a holster myself at some stage - seems a reasonable price ................. ??

No problem Jimbo
Joker you're right they do look very similar. It seems the easiest way to carry a 1911 with a German loadout. I dont know if its classed as "Farby" but I'd rather use a 1911 than a luger, in an airsoft battle.
Jimbo only re-enactors use FARBY. Me, I would rather enjoy a full on game wearing a black boilersuit and use whatever weapons I could get if that was what I had available

A WW2 pistol is a WW2 pistol! Especially when it's holstered and noone can tell the difference anyway.
When I want your opinion - I'll tell you what it is!
Yup any ww2 pistol can be captured kit. Or in the case of a 1911; a STAR Model B 9mm 1911 clone bought from Spain (used by german police) or Norwegian M/1914 1911 clone produced under German occupation. I'm very tempted to get one myself actually. Are there any full metal 1911s out there with no markings on that I could add my own to?
WE M1911 has no markings
Excellent. Ta.
I'm not sure if the Tercel one has markings. Available from Airsoft World.

Link text is a bit misleading, but it is a 1911.
Just been on the blower to one of the CIA Organisers - he mentioned that pistol too
Anyone have any experience with the Tercel 1911? I've not come across it before, not that I've really been looking.
Someone on the Fort forums might be able to help - I know a few people there have them.

I got one for my Uncle not long back. It was excellent. Think of a full metal TM 19111 and you're there. It even has TM trades on it! A bit thirsty on gas but hey, you expect that from a single stack mag in a full metal pistol and it's not as if spares are expensive!

Wow an Arnie robo-soldier version ?
"The .45 long slide, with laser sighting.
Pawn Shop Clerk: [Hands the Terminator a .45 gun] These are brand new; we just got them in. That's a good gun. Just touch the trigger, the beam comes on and you put the red dot where you want the bullet to go. You can't miss. Anything else?"
LA - Pete mentioned this full-metal TM clone to me, If I didn't have a WE version, I'd prolly buy two
thanks for the links and inpsiration, as I have been pondering on this issue
So the Tercel does have trades on it? Does sound good though.

It's got exactly the same trades as the TM one.
