Me too --  Mag1 -- I have to ask -- are you a working man, or retired?

 

 You always post some of the nicest pieces and I know they aren't cheap --  You definitely have deep pockets...

Nice Supergrade mag1. Did that come from WC that way, or did it have some additional surgery done afterwards?

Wilson did all the work, Turnbull did the bluing

Why was it reblued? Was it an older model or?

Wilson just started doing in house bluing.

They sourced all their requests for bluing to Turnbull, well at least charcoal blue and CCH. They dont use Turnbull anymore. I forget the BS reasons, but Turnbull Charcoal is nice. Like to see how it compares to Wilson now. 

 

Wilson polishes it first, and they do it the right way, then would send your pistol if you chose bluing to Turnbull.

Thanks for sharing. You've done your homework. WC sure looks different from when I first looked at them over a decade ago.

Funny, Glad I am not the only Jersoid on the WC Board....

 

Like I said - love this gun!

Here's my Kimber Stainless Custom II with Truglo TFO sights.  My first 1911 and one of my favorite pistols.  

 

This is a Colt 1911  made in 1944.  When my father passed away, he left it to me. I has two magazines with "L"  stamped  on the lip of the mags. Sorry about the pics not being all that clear. First time at this. All comments welcome, Not sure what I have here interms of grade and value.

Damn, just damn that looks good!

What model is that?

Congrats. what a difference!

Eh, it was cheap… 9mm

 

Colt Government .45acp

& a Sig .22

 

I've noticed since buying and shooting 1911's, I have stopped looking at the other cases at the LGS. I go right for the 1911 gun porn now. I'm just not interested in anything else anymore.

How does it shoot?

Very soft.  Feels like a .22 compared to a 45ACP 1911.  I know Rocks don't have the greatest reputation, but I'm pleasantly surprised for the money.

Finally picked up my new Kimber Ultra Covert II today. All cleaned and ready for some range time.
