I received an RMR optics from Amazon and mounted it today. Should get fiber optic Front and Rear sights tomorrow. Only waiting for mag to come in. Will get another picture after the sights get mounted. Almost ready to shoot , can't wait!!!
 
Got my fiber optic sights today and will install them on the gun in a little while. I am down to magazines and a 20 lb RSA.

Gathering the final parts for the second build . Just need the trigger and extractor to make it functional. Also an RMR. Got a SS guide rod , installed a 22# spring on Friday along with a TiN 10/45 firing pin. The extractor is in the mail. I still need to order the trigger, I was going to put a shoe on the lever I have but ... OC Triggers is calling for me again.

Is that a captured Gen 4 to gen 3 RSA adapter or loose? If loose, I had to flatten one side of the adapter so it didn't interfere with the barrel when it is cycling. Have you placed it on the frame and tried to cycle yet?

Cheap Magwell that I had to take the lip off of so factory mag would fit properly..I have some aluminum dye which will used later.

I received the 10mm extractor today and installed it on the slide. I only need one part, the trigger. The build is getting close to being finished.
 
The Stormtrooper 45acp is done. Just need to Locktite or Rocksett the Brake after I shoot it . I finally got a couple of G21 mags and a KCI stick mag. The Brake is overkill !

Yeah, a bit overkill. However, from someone who has actively looked for .45 muzzle brakes, they are very hard to find and when you do find them they are really expensive. This one looks to be a tanker muzzle for a .45 AR. Yes, I’ve seen it and thought it was just too big for my pistol but, honestly, it kind of works for your theme.

Plus I had to wait 3 weeks.
I also got a brake for a 10mmAuto and it is about perfect in size.
