Alchemy Custom Weaponry Quantico- It's "Gangster"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 апр 2024
- It's exciting to finally be posting a video with a gun built by the company I work for. Alchemy Custom Weaponry is one of the premier semi-custom 1911 makers in the world and it is an honor to be employed by such a patriotic company. With that said, you better believe this is a biased video, as I obviously work for the company, but have also been a fan since long before working here.
The AGW Quantico is one of the sexiest rail guns in existence.

I like your “story time” format on focusing on one gun. Thats the way I was raised too. Guns are personal things that carry stories with them. What if when you run out of your guns to talk about you do a “friends of Eli” series and talk about buddies gun stories.
That actually would be really cool. Most of my really, really good buddies with cool guns live in other states!
@@1776_duck you could always do a focustrip style video call/interview format
Preach young prophet of the Gangster 1911. For it is written and so it shall be done. On earth as in Fort Wayne.
Alchemy should do a pistol called "the gangster" and build it influenced by 1911s from the 20s and 30s and chamber it in 38 super, the favorite of actual gangsters from back in the day. That would really show the people who get so upset by the word gangster lol. By the way fellow North Carolina boy from the foothills here, really enjoying the channel brother, keep it gangster!
I’m a freaking history freak I love the history. I also like hearing about the history of my favorite manufacturers. Such as Colt,CZ,Walther,Smith&Wesson,Ruger,Beretta, Now with that said I like how your bringing names forward in the custom game. I also like reloading and casting my own ammo. Idk if you do that but if so maybe talk about some reloading. Ammo and the ammo manufacturers don’t get a lot of attention. And in my opinion I think they should. Because if you don’t have ammo what’s the point in owning firearms????
The content is great so far. I also enjoy when you delve into the history of the 1911, specific guns, etc. Maybe other historical content related in one way or another to the 1911 or a specific 1911.
We know how you feel about B roll and range videos, but I sure wouldn’t complain if there was more of it.
Man.... your 1911 collection is gangster af.
Thank you, man! I am irresponsible.
Loved the diversion with the commercial Smith 1917 revolver. Loved the KH Novak Answer custom and anything like that and on Swenson (and that bluish hard chrome!), Clark, history of custom 1911s, etc. is always good and appreciated. I think the Texas Rangers use of the 1911 is fertile ground for exploration. Gun writer Sheriff Jim Wilson used to point out that a lot of Rangers went straight from Colt SAAs to 1911s and skipped DA revolvers altogether. Know you like the pre-war period with 1911s and this is a good fit for that.
I love that! I actually had never really considered the Rangers skipping straight to automatics, I need to look more into that!
I see non-ring hammers on them racks right there!!
Unfortunately, work won't let me put ring hammers on all the marketing guns.
Great video thanks for sharing! That glorious matte chrome rocks and the full spec of your version is perfection. I may try to copy it later sorry not sorry. M81 is killer you are a true OG keep slaying it boogity boogity.
Boogity boogity!
I dig the iron young man. Fine looking piece of pocket artillery. 1775_Devildog.
I love that, "pocket artillery".
I keep seeing lots of what looks to be “vintage” gear on your Instagram. Talking holsters and belts and stuff. Would love to hear about those things tickle the tism in my brain.
Yep, when it comes to the vintage stuff, I really try to research everything as much as possible to make sure I get my story straight! That's why it takes me awhile to do videos like that.
@@1776_duck happy to hear that. Excited to see what you put out.
I’m going to have to copy this build minus the roll mark.
DEW IT.
Duck, you guys make the THE BEST, looking 1911’s out there. Man that Quantico is off the chain! Can you do the compacts in hard chrome as well?
Hell yeah, we can do the compacts in chrome!
Maybe some videos for newbies on 1911 because as a new gun owner everyone just tells me to get a Glock or a polymer frame something or the other because they’re so reliable so maybe some tips on working on our 1911s how to take care of them and the such anyway excellent video I’m gonna place an order for one immediately thank you!
Yeah, I like that! I sometimes forget that people don't know some of these little things you need to know to carry a 1911.
Keep it gangsta y’all Keep it gangsta👊🏼🔥
As far as video ideas, everyone likes shooting videos haha, but maybe a video on accessories: holsters, lights, optics etc and maybe any tweaks that have to be made so they work with the 1911 platform. Along with the stories accompanied by the accessories. Maybe how you got it what was going on in life at the time? Maybe some videos on history stuff since you seem to love that kind of thing 👍🏽 love your style bro and the way you conduct yourself. Respect
Thanks so much! I appreciate the feedback!
I know we were born in the same year, but I wanna be like you when I grow up
HAHAHAHAH, oh man, I am just a kid being irresponsible.
I use a Phlster floodlight, which is another great holster that retains on the light and has room for an optic. The OWB and (A)IWB holsters for the floodlight are different, however. That Safariland w/mods is epic. I am super jealous. Of course your pistols speak for themselves. Thanks for posting, I just subbed, I really enjoy your content.
Shorter form discussions with other 1911 guys ( hackathorn, schauland, novak, chambers, burton, ect ). You have a unique position in the industry that allows you access to talk to these peoples and hear their stories/opinions/simple maintenance tips and tricks whatever. Maybe something like that.
Sure, it just comes down to getting together with those people. Definitely something I can plan for!
I may not be able to afford one of these but I sure can say that's one clean chest hair line.😎
It takes a lot, and I mean a LOT of work.
I want to see a gun guys episode with you and ken
@gowilsoncombat Let's do it.
Idea for a video I’d like to see, a video solely dedicated to holsters and holster selection, covering materials, use case(duty, comp, edc), styles and history. Also light bearing options
I think it would be cool to hear about holster history, as well as hear about some different options especially for ACW.
Quantico FTW! 🤩🤘
I love the Q.
The safariland for the XC works perfectly without any modifications. That’s what I’m using with my Quantico.
vs. Series would be awesome. Comparing existing guns, which do you like better and why?
Also, more Q&As
I recommend you trying out the 10-8 bobbed spur hammer. It’s awesome
You may not be an influencer, but that mustache is well done
I will not buy an ACW gun until there is an option for the "Gangster" roll mark.
@defconcreative you're the one that won't let the people have fun, explain yourself
I want a "gangster" quantico double stack in 10mm with a damascuss trigger, and a 90 degree ball cut on the dust cover!!!!
?? John lovell grew an 80s cop mustache and developed an accent?
1776 duck, because we are being quacked?
Sweet
One cannot fight the single stack urge. Embrace the way.
Can you do a video explaining the difference between production, semi-custom, and full custom manufacturers, with examples of each? I can never figure out who counts for what
Would be cool to have you break down a staccato.
Cool 😎
I appreciate you reviewing a 1911 then dogging on these boomers that get so butthurt over your use of words. I love it and I think I love you 😂
I like old dudes, but sometimes I think they forgot what it was like to be a young person.
Some of us boomers love his language! Plus it helps that he loves the 1911s that I carried & loved in the military and in law enforcement.
Honestly, what irks me about modern gun culture is the common meme that the 1911 works “well”, but is obsolete or obsolescent when compared to modern handguns. Obviously, this is complete horseshit, as we all know, but a video describing “why” 1911s are king would be a great topic for a video in my opinion. I truly believe that a quality 1911 is superior in just about every way to a modern handgun, no hyperbole or sarcasm here.
That video that tfb tv did a while back on that alchemy got me riled up, tbh. I couldn’t disagree more with the initial comments about how he would never recommend someone buy a 1911 for defensive use, and that the only value 1911s have anymore is simply the heritage and aesthetic of it. This common meme of the 1911 being outdated and not good enough for defensive or offensive use really has to die, I fundamentally disagree with this at core level. So, because Gaston Glock came out with a cheap reliable plastic gun back in the 80s that holds a bunch of rounds with a trigger “safety”, this means that a quality 1911 is now “outdated”? A video talking about why the 1911 was, and still is, king, would be a breath of fresh air in this cesspit of polymer pussies.
Oh, I can preach the gospel. Don't you worry.
Sorry if I missed this, what extended mag is that in front? One of your Wilson’s with a different end on it?
Is that RDR holster a modified M&P like mine? Which nub mod did you put on it? The regular ALS or the 1911 or staccato specific?
Don’t mean to ask a dumb question. But what’s the extended mag you have in the thumbnail?
That is a really cool, old Wilson's 10rd Magazine.
It's even more gangster now that Alchemy has said there won't be anymore to follow. You might think it's for marketing, brand, and image, but I'd like to think it's because they don't want anyone who's not Eli to be carrying his gun 😎💪🫡
Commander square guard please...
I'm trying to buy one right now, actually.
@1776_duck I'd love to see it offered at alchemy.
@@saltwatertaffybag
I have made that request before also. 👍🏼
Why not have black hard chrome?
Ricky from IBVM
The minute I laid eyes on this fine piece of weaponry I had to change my underwear
It's really, really hot.
Video idea:
Seriously review a Glock or other striker fired gun.
Or maybe a DA/SA like a CZ75, maybe the history of the hi-power? I know this is a 1911 channel but your persona is 85% of the reason most of us watch. The guns are cool, but you're cool too. I'd love to hear your take on something different.
Waiting for the Alchemy Restomod to drop today!
Noon, EST!
I would like to see a video on your low rider
Hey, hey, I definitely can do that, now!
Tell me about the sign on the wall
Ricky from IBM
What sign?
@@1776_duck the sign over your left shoulder that is lit up
What time is the Restomod dropping
Noon, EST!
I like your channel but “gangster” is kind of the opposite of the aesthetic most 1911 people want lol.
I mean, pinstripe suits, BARs, Thompsons, suicide door Fords? More importantly, it's just a word that means "cool".
