O.K. - My Re-Done 2001 Springfield 1911 Loaded V-12:

 

 

 

 

 

How does the front sight work out being that color? I would imagine it is a bit tricky to pick up visually.

The gold front sight was actually colored in just after the photos were taken.

I wasn't in a rush because the gun was being retired, so now it is just for show........

Actually, that gun is retired, so Bob is correct........ lol

Jack did you get the inspiration for that 1911 from the movie Face Off? Reminds me of Nicolas Cages 1911. Awesome. 

Yes - I always wanted one as a show piece, and when I switched out to another

HG to shoot regularly, this was the perfect opportunity to do the project.

All you need now is a another one and a bunch of narcotics.

 

It's not a 1911, but would this count.....................

 

 

 

 

Lol

 

STI Range master 9mm.

Love Nick Cage's guns in Face/Off...total badass! I always wanted one.

Nice!

 

Thanks. Phone pic turned out blurry though.

Better than the horrible pic I posted of my Trojan. Love the full dust cover on the range master. My STI is a tack driver and if bet yours is too.

You got a good deal on that Trojan having them add tool less guide rod and fiber Dawson precision  fiber optic sights. Dust cover is personal choice, I like the old look as well. Makes the front end heavy though with the bull barrel and full dust cover.

Yeah plus my FFL doesn't charge tax....shhhh. STI definitely hooked me up too.

 

What mags do you use? I got a Wilson combat but haven't ran with it yet.

I've heard good results from people using Wilson combat but have not used them personally. I use the Tripp research cobra mags and has met my expectations. Needs minor adjustments from time to time but over all performed very well. VZ grips is having a sale right now and makes huge difference on the grip incase you are interested.

 

 

DELETED!!!!!

 

New addition. Remington R1 Stainless. Plain Jane...

 

 

 

Man, those R1's are nice. That's as beauty right there!  I'm really considering my first 1911 be a Remi R1 Enhanced Stainless.

Beautiful!

we have good taste Chris!

Another beautiful piece as usual Bullseye. You should consider making a 2015 calendar for all your purdy 1911s.

Yes, that might be true... but its a very expensive calender that took years to make

Playing with the iphone cam and thought I'd share my newly arrived PM-7 pics. Merry Christmas!
