Compatability of Marvel conversion and Accurail system?

Post by tenex »

Hi All,
I have a Springfield GI 45 with a Marvel conversion and was thinking of setting it up as a ball gun as well. Does anyone know if the Marvel will work with a frame that has an Accurail system installed?

Thanks,
Steve.

I' pretty sure that you would have to modify the Marvels slide rails for clearance for it to fit on the Acc-U-Railed 1911 frame. Also the friction may be too great for it to cycle as a .22. On my .38 Super compensationed guns you need to run a pretty light 7 - 8lb recoil spring for them to run.

Another factor would be that if the fram is from a ball gun, and you want to double duty that frame as your .22, then you would be stuck with the 4 lb trigger too.

Good Luck,

MJ
