What is the Verrückte Weapon System?

---

The integrated magazine well is designed to be functional without increasing the overall length of the grip to reduce patterning under clothing. This allows for about a quarter inch of space to get finger tips inside the bottom of the mag well and around the bottom of the magazine should a magazine need to be physically stripped from the pistol. 

• The frame will take any standard 1911 grips. However, the grips will need to have a quarter inch cut off the bottom to fit.
• These frames are purposefully milled with an oversized magazine well to allow the gunsmith to blend the mag well to the grips you choose or flare the mag-well to your desire. 
• The integrated magazine well design in the Jäger frame requires the use of a 2011 mainspring housing

The 1911 handgun is a hundred year old design, yet most major firearms manufactures make their own handguns along with their version of the 1911. There are dozens of companies dedicated to building nothing but 1911s. The hundred year old Browning design is still an excellent, reliable handgun platform with one of the best triggers ever made. The 2011 design is a double stack 1911, an excellent modern upgrade. HOWEVER, the biggest difference between the 1911 and most other modern handguns is the size of the trigger guard. All 2011 trigger guards are the same size as all 1911 trigger guards. 

Most other modern handguns have trigger guards that allow for large hands and gloved hands. The large trigger guards also allow the shooter to bring the trigger finger down onto the trigger from index with one sweeping movement. Muscle memory can be developed with extensive training that can allow a competent shooter to develop speed in the movements required to pull the finger off index and get it into the standard 1911 trigger guard with consistent contact with the trigger.  

Why not just fix the problem. 

The design of the muzzle device makes the overall pistol the exact same size as the equivalent Government or Commander size 1911 with a full dust cover.   

• The trigger guard is larger than standard 1911 or 2011 but still should fit most 2011 holsters as most of these holsters have the bottom edge of the trigger guard open. 
• The weapon may sit higher in the holster, and some 2011 holsters  that fully enclose the trigger guard may require some slight modification
• Holsters designed for the CZ-75 and clones seem to provide the closest match. 

This serves to manage recoil and muzzle rise creating greater stability in the overall function of the weapon for faster follow-up shots and greater accuracy.

This system will also prevent the pistol from being disabled due to the barrel and slide being pushed back and out of battery if pressure is applied to the front of the weapon. This can also help prevent malfunctioning or misfiring during re-holstering.

Helps to drive kinetic energy down through the recoil spring guide rod, through the muzzle device, down through the frame. This helps to drive the weapon into your hand instead of all the energy driving the weapon up. 

Also reduces  long term wear on the rails. Traditionally, manufacturers would not make 1911 slides out of Aluminum as the stress of recoil and long term wear would be too significant. Considering the advantage of this third point of strength and stability, the goal of Verrückte Weapon Systems is to develop handguns with 7075 Aluminum frames and slides that will handle 45ACP and 10mm loads and stand the test of time.  

The Verrückte Weapon System is patent pending. The basic design and function of the VWS Muzzle device is very simple. The device and corresponding benefits could potentially be fitted to any semi-automatic handgun platform with a metal frame and full dust cover. HOWEVER; this cannot be developed as an aftermarket component. The design and function of the  Verrückte Weapon System Muzzle Device must be incorporated into the manufacture of a weapon in order to function as intended while maintaining the original size and holster compatibility.
