Thanks for that. I've rang them a few times, the last time was today. No luck I'm afraid. It seems no one has got any...well, the shops I've tried haven't anyway but...there's one out there somewhere, I can feel it in me old bones...... .

Re-newing this search because, even though I could really do with a (see original post) I'll settle for (almost) any 1911 in BB format but it has to be a non-blowback in metal. Just wondering if you folks have anything similar you may be moving on etc?

Weird, I saw this about 10 minutes ago and thought of you! - www.guntrader.uk/guns/air-pistols/umarex/co2/177/colt-government-m1911-a1-210928175349053I'm almost sure that Norica one is non-blowback, the other looks like an Umarex version but the photo isn't great EDIT - The Norica might be a pellet version, needs some research

Thank you both very much. Yep, the two first ones are both pellet versions and the third one hasn't got the look I/they're after but thanks for taking the time to let me know.

You sir are not wrong! I can't believe the dealers haven't or rather, can't get them. I won't go into the 'politics' of why because I'm certain most know but.....I'm not after a 'real' one! In fact, I actually could get one of them easier!!!

Thanks but they're not keen on the 'grips' on the top slide. Or the rail thingy underneath. Fussy so and so's...

Hmmmmmm.........I wonder?!? I wonder if good 'ole WB was right all along? (I wouldn't be surprised to be honest ) It makes total sense if he is and, the reason; This 'non-existant' 1911 we're after just might, possibly, not exist! Apart from the one I found on a dealers website which was perfect for the shoot (no pun) and the gift afterwards, all the others are all blow-back. There's only one KWC 1911 (Not In Stock) that wasn't. Now I'm wondering if it was a 'typo' on the advert and it is in fact, a Blow-Back? If that's the case, much apologies to WB from me! ...and an extra free Bourbon when the Ranch visit happens. However.....if yer wrong..........
P.S. Anyone know how to make a BlowBack into a Non Blowback?

"They don't have live stock checking on their site" One of the companies I've rang SHOULD have had live stock checking! Would have been much better than the human that was doing it!!!!
P.S. Just thought it through...perhaps getting live stock checking wouldn't be such a great idea as, when I ring them up, if it's the live stock with hoof's, they wouldn't even be able to pick up the phone to speak to me. Second thoughts, perhaps that WOULD be a good idea!

P.S. Anyone know how to make a BlowBack into a Non Blowback? To make a blowback 1911 into a non blowback, I think you just remove the blowback mech/valve but not sure. You would have to manually cock it with the slide every time. Got too finally ask Billy, but why do you need a non blowback version?

Many thankings. When filmings finished I'm gifting it to my mates son. He tried my 1911 Remington and it frightened him so the nbb is what he's after.
