1911 converted to DA/SA

[tbtrout 141]

My buddy dropped off a Colt Series 70 Mark IV that has been converted to a DA/SA pstol. It looks like a plate was put on one side and a trigger pin drilled in frame. The new trigger actually contacts a shortened original trigger to fire.

Anyone ever seen one of these?

I am familiar with the Seecamp conversion that originated many years ago. Does it look like this?

YES, that is it. Thank you Parker.

 

 

I will have it Tuesday Maks to put it through its paces. Way different than the LDA.

They were done on Series 70's because that's how far back that conversion was done by Lou Seecamp, before the Series 80's time. I have handled one in my lifetime. Apparently, they have a bit of collector value today.
