After several years of longing to do a 1911 Commander caliber conversion, having spent copious hours researching the process and feasibility, I've finally pulled the trigger. Pun intended.
I've decided to use the Springfield Ronin Operator 9mm 4.25" as the basis for this conversion. Have secured a Wilson Combat Match Grade ramped .38 Super barrel to be the replacement. And Wilson combat magazines to be the feed mechanism. Awaiting the convergence of the parts which should commence on Saturday. And someday FedEx will get the Ronin delivered, been stuck in Fargo, ND all week, of all places.
This is my Rona project, so hopefully by the spring this project will have come to fruition and I'll have a new dual caliber range toy.
