I guess they solved the slide mass problem. Must have a 4lb spring.

Where do you even get a slide that length? It looks ridiculous

I'm the biggest long slide fan that I know of and this slide is too long. I have to admit I'm curious about how the recoil spring/guide rod works. From the limited photos it looks like a GI style. Is the spring over a foot long?

Looks like somebody was r-e-a-l-l-y bored. Might even be velocity loss with 45 ACP in it.

Without digging into my visualization of such a long slide 1911, I’ll wager it approaches neither reliability nor accuracy of my Les Baer Super Tac, or any number of top performing 1911’s. And, to correct for trajectory on silhouettes, the Looong Slide will need a Mauser tangent rear sight! David Bradshaw

To stay in the same lane... I was thinking a laser attached with duct tape.

“One of a kind!” For these small miracles we are grateful…🤣
The upside is it can legally take a stock without becoming an SBR. Instead of a Mauser tangent sight, just use the tangent sight and stock off a T series BHP. 😁

You could conceal carry it down one leg, and if you are wearing tear away athletic pants, you could draw right out the side!

I could finally see the front sight in focus again!
Slide markings are atrocious.

Videos like that are why I don't watch videos.
