Hello guys. In these couple of days I notice there is a huge misunderstanding between the Silverballer and the ICA Silverballer but even worse I’m surprised to see that a part of you can’t see the difference between the “Blackballer” from the Beta and the ICA19

I hope you can spare some time to read and hope to not annoy you too much.

Now first of all lets start with the Blackballer.

The so called Blackballer was a name given by us from the forum to distinguish 47 new signature weapon but in reality its called Silenced 1911.

Why do we call it the Blackballer? Because it has the famous Hitman logo on it and pretty much is almost identical to the Silverballer only its black.

But it seems like many of you are mistaken it with the ICA19 that the game has provided us with. Which lets me wonder why did they let the weapon go for now?

It was in the beta and you can see it clear in their image campaign wallpaper (this one bellow)



And also this one here



So, what are the differences?

ICA19



And Blackballer from the Beta



Now if you can see, they are totally different!

The marks/writing on the gun are as you can see others, the silencer is different, marks/writing on them as well, the grip is another model, the slide release on the ICA19 is normal while on the Blackballer is extended, the trigger is different too (Blackballer has a skeleton trigger like same from the Silverballer in the past games), some lines on the side in the front of the slide and the hammer.









Can we all agree now thanks to these details that the one we have is simply an ICA weapon and not 47’s new signature pistol please?

And now ladies and gentlemen. My favorite subject! THE SILVERBALLER!!!

I don’t know for what reason on earth, the first time I saw the Silverballer in H Contracts I felt in LOVE with it. I loved everything about its looks and I find it to be really beautiful.

And since then it has been 47 signature weapon.

From Contracts to Absolution it only changes a bit with the marks on the slide being more on the right and the magazine base from black turning silver.



But here starts my obsession in pointing out the huge let down for me…

THE ICA SILVERBALLER… that Silverballer is not so much.



I don’t know what it should be. The own ICA version of it or they just want to make some changes. Because now I’m going to explain a little bullshit that is going on here.

First of all what is so different? Like really do I have to explain? Of course I do and I’m ready to face who ever says there no difference with facts!

Where shall I begin?

Ah yes

Now what has the original Silverballer so unique? Well, besides the marks there is particular thing that it does not exist out there on 1911. Its a small detail, but still…

And that is a thin rail that connects the rear sight with front sight. It must be some special design to make it look different because I never saw anything similar on no 1911 pistol and I have to admit that my knowledge for guns come from google images.





The ICA Silverballer has not and besides that the rear sight and the front sight are something else





Other thing that comes to attention is quite the essential. And those are the marks. Like where are they? They represented the Silverballer and now they are gone

We have a “El Monte Ca” just on top of the grip, it has the writing “STAINLESS - MADE IN U.S.A.” lower and not at the center.

And the most important of them all, the symbol is not there on the slide.

Gone! Just a barcode and I discovered it was a barcode thanks to the zoom in the Sniper. Or else it gives the impression like it was scratched away or something.



So far the only thing reminding us about the Silverballer are the grips. Identical yes, but the logo has the colors inverted. It should be the Logo white and the rest black, not the Logo black and the rest white.

And another small small detail different in the picture are the screws holding the grips to the gun. You can see them different as well



Going next we have other things.

Like: the Silverballer has both Slide Stop and Thumb Safety extended, while the ICA Silverballer has only the Thumb Safety alike and a normal Slide Stop.

The hammer is a whole different thing, same as the Grip Safety and the Trigger



Then there should be the silencer. But that is not that important since it changes a lot in the games.

Now, what are the differences?

1) Rail connecting the rear sight to the front

2) Rear Sight and Front Sight

3) No personal markings with logo

4) Extended Slide Stop

5) Hammer

6) Grip Safety

7) Trigger

8) Different color in logo on the grip and screws

9) Recoil Plug

10) Shell exit

And now here is a curious thing that I just notice

The ICA Silverballer and the ICA19 are the same.

Identical only it adds 2 things. On the ICA19 you have some lines on the Slide, rear sight and different grips.

But for the rest, on the ICA19 it even says “El Monte CA” on a side like the ICA Silverballer
