    not bad for a $350 including tools to build it, and yes it runs fine with ball ammo i will work on the feed ramp and get it working with hollow points later one.

    all i used to build it was a green scratch pad to remove rust form the lower, a small harbor fright file set, some cold bluing, a plunger staking tool, and a dremel tool to polish parts, break cleaner to remove oil when bluing it..
    i did replace 2 springs i did not like how it ran so i replaced the main spring to improve the trigger and the recoil spring was to long "and made it cycle slow" so i used a old one had from a rock island that was wore out.
    it now has a 3lb trigger pull and cycles fast.

    If you want a challenge build a 1911 not one part is going to fit with out some work.

    Looking good Mangyrat! That 1911 build, was it a kit gun or something you picked up that needed work done to it?
    Yay! Cigars!

    the 1911 was a build.
    The striped frame is from PSA and the rest was form SARCO other than grips and main spring.
    If you decide to try building one the day you get the striped frame blue it or it will rust.

    I picked up the parts on sale so the basic gun was $312, the grips were on clearance at PSA for $20 i think

    The apocalypse happens when uncle sugar runs out of $ to give to the ghetto goblins till then things will just chug along.
    People around here are panic buying guns right and left, i get asked a few times a week if i have any ammo or guns i want sell.

    Yeah, funny how it was so hip and "in" to be anti-gun........until people think they have a need to defend them selves.
