even thought looking at those grips is spatially disorienting me... I like them!

Not really a 1911, but still pretty cool. First .45 model , 1905. Fire blued small parts, been looking for one of these for a long while.

got another springer to add to the family

Not familiar with the Springfields other than the bottom of the barrel lineup. Is that a Loaded? Looks good.

yes, its a loaded model. has night sights. can't wait to get it out and break it in.

Got this POS Norinco a while ago, was digging in the safe and remembered it. Need to start working on it.







Terrible sights, need to change them.





If you haven't handled a new Chinese firearm or ammo, they stink. Probably laced with anthrax or something. Oh well, gotta go sometime.

The Norinco had a really good reputation as a great platform for a custom build. If I remember correctly it had to do with the steel taking very well to tightening the slide to frame fit. Just did a little more google fu and came up that Wilson Combat used Norinco slides and frames for all out custom builds years ago before they started in house production.

Yeah I know a lot of people say they are a good basis for a build. Still don't really like em though, but I always seem to have one or two laying around.

I need a new pistol. Just posted two pics I already posted on this page.

Your alls 1911s are nicer but my pics are better

Excuse the grips.....

I said I wasn't going to buy another 1911 when I got my Dan Wesson. I REALLY want to buy more 1911's now...haha I would like to have a nice old Colt, a Springfield and the new M45A1 or whatever it is that the Marines recently started using. 1911's are hands down my favorite pistol to shoot! They fit my hand like a glove and feel like JMB personally asked my opinion and used my hand to design the gun around...haha

When SHTF, you shoot your camera and I will shoot my 1911.

They both shoot just fine

Now that is slick as hell!

Thanks. It feels pretty good. The couple internal pieces lightened up the trigger. It feels smooth and right at 4.1 pounds while retaining the stock trigger and hammer. The more I look at it I want to go ahead and add a new trigger and hammer. Only problem is that I want a trigger the has the ears on the back of the finger part to adjust the play and slop. I didn't see that WC made them.
