boom stick458 socom 1" for pistols (Or 45 SOCOM)
Basicly use socom brass cut below the shoulder and here is a photoshop image.
shortened neck and body with a brass length of 1"ish.
http://www.guncrafterindustries.com/sneakpreview.shtmlGuncrafter industries is selling kits to turn glock 20's into 50GI's so use the conversion clip and either rechamber and rebore out a 45 barrel or do a 45 version. I like both. The 45 version would just need the new clip and rechambered. The 458 version would just be cool for the heavy for pistol 45-70 bullets. I wonder if 405's would fly fast enough

up to 350's would be cool.
A fun concept imho.

boom stickWell I talked to Guncrafter Industries end they said what I thought to be true. Keep the preasures moderate and it can be done. The longer glock barrels with the brake would give the guns longer life too.
hunting aplications with heavy bullets is the best niche for this. Figure 300 to 350 grains.
I think using the 460 Rowland barrel with the brake and rechambering it would be the best for 1911's.
this glock compensator would rock too.
