Will a 1911 slide fit a Hicapa frame?
 

I have the tanio koba spacer already, i have a TM 1911 with a hicapa slide, but will the opposite work?

Does a 1911 slide fit onto a hicapa frame?
Any mods to the bushing or rod?

thanks!

yep, it's all good

Yes it works. Take out the Tanio Koba spacer before you install the slide on the hi-capa frame though.

thanks a lot guys!

Jeremy,

The Tanio Koba Slide Spacer is only required when using Hi-Capa slides (or some specialty 1911/meu slides) on the 1911/meu lower. Technically, you could use it with an original Marui 1911 slide as well, but it's not necessary.

The 1911 slide should just drop right on to a Hi-Capa frame with zero mods, assuming you are not changing any of the internals/accessories on it, such as the bushing, spring plug, recoil rod, hop up chamber, or sights. If you are expecting to put Hi-Capa sights on a 1911 slide, forget it. The dovetail mount is completely different. If you're expecting to use the 1911 barrel bushing on a Hi-Capa, forget it. Even the spring plugs are not interchangeable.

it fits fine, just have to remove one of the rails in the 1911 slide in order for it to fit. Even the bushing is in, hot
