New from Guncrafter Industries: The Frag

Guncrafter Industries' Frag 1911 (courtesy guncrafterindustries.com)

Guncrafter Industries are best known for their 50GI model. That would be a 1911 that fires a bespoke .50 GI caliber round. Needless to say, the Danish-born Arkansas gunmaker can’t live on strangely-calibered high-end pistols alone. So, continuing the military motif, Mr. Zimmerman has created the Frag. No, it’s not a gun designed to shoot senior officers. Nor is it the nickname for the ill-fated muppet show. The Frag was named for the gun’s checkering, inspired by the MK2 Pineapple “fragmentation” grenade. The $3285 Frag’s matching grips compliment the front strap. Not to coin a phrase, it’s the bomb. You can order the gun in several finishes (or even just one) to create a durable and functional package that you can use every day and hand down to the next generation of enthusiasts in your family. The “Frag” is available in both 5” Government, and 4.25” Commander sized configurations in your favorite 1911 calibers— other than the 50GI.

  1. I intend to get one of these for the simple fact that I don’t think I’ll be able to afford a real one. I also wish that they could import in real calibers (9mm, 7.62×39) but sadly that is not gonna happen unless GSG builds a production factory in the US. But I want one, because, as stated above, they’re awesome! duh!

  2. “State police said they are investigating whether there was a delayed response.” Wow, that should be a hard-hitting, unbiased investigation! Here, CT St Pol, let me help: How long did it take them to respond? “One hour and a half.” Yep, that’s “delayed”.

    “I want someone caught,” Quick said. “I just want to also figure out what happened. Where were the cops?” Hey, they were busy kicking in doors of people who might not have registered their eeeevil 30-round magazine.

  3. SuperNova would put either of these two to shame. And if you prefer a classic action, the BPS would be a better choice as well in terms of fit and finish. Although I have a circa 1960 Wingmaster that will never leave my safe. Of course that was when Remington actually cared about the guns that left their factory.

  4. The stinking antis and the media a-holes in their corner are trying to demonize gun owners and establish a social atmosphere of distrust, loathing and contempt toward gun owners similarly to what local governments have done with mentally disordered sex offenders through published databases of where they reside.

    The intent is to mark honest law abiding gun owners and CCW holders with the implication that they should be held to ridicule and somehow punished for their exercise of lawful and constitutionally protected activities, regardless of the unjustified risk gun owners are subsequently exposed to.

    To disparage, humiliate and endanger law-abiding honorable gun owners / CCW holders in this manner is outrageous and hanging would be too good for the kind of people who would do this!

  5. Kirsten, I like showing your videos to my seven year old daughter. I hope someday she can have the same ability to focus combined with joy that you have.

    I haven’t taken her shooting yet, but she told me she wants a rifle small enough for her and pink.

  6. He only ever had his own back, and the backs of his cronies and campaign donors. This man wouldn’t know how to prevent rust if he was a metallurgist. Just more worthless pieces of parchment that do not, cannot, and will never deter or prevent any criminal anywhere from doing anything illegal at any time, to anyone, under any circumstance. Fuck him.
