Okay looks like it is the GSG 1911 chambered in .22 by American Tactical. What I was basically looking to do was take the slide and entire upper half of the GSG .22 1911, scrap the frame and everything, and use that slide/barrel/etc. as a conversion kit for my .45 to save myself the 300$ on a new conversion kit. The Para .45 I have right now is a single stack, but the mags that came with the GSG seem to be different than my Para mags and don't fit into the magwell. May have ended up buying a 50$ paper weight haha. The .22 pistol itself is junk, just thought I might be able to fix up the slide and use it as a conversion kit for the .45. Oops >.<
