1911 Show-N-Tell

[ChristianPatriot]

I really like what I have read about the Valor. Could you get that bead blasted or something IF you wanted to clean it up?

There was some discussion about it in this thread - https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/handguns/387655-lube-tight-stainless-1911-a.html

I can't remember any other handgun, including others 1911's, that felt as good in my hand. It's just fantastic. Of course, I haven't shot it yet so it could be total hunk of junk

Oh I'm not complaining

Really nice!

Honest wear on a gun improves the looks.

Man, ain't that the truth! You just have to love the patina earned through use as it was designed to be used.

Hey Bikerdad61. What did you use to polish the slide? Looks good!

 

[AllenM]

well, I still need better backgrounds but here is my 10mm bobtail commander after I did a new upper on it and added a ribbed bull barrel. Waiting on a plunger tube to show up still

Allen, that looks really good!

What frame and slide did you use?

Allen, that looks really good!

What frame and slide did you use?

It is based off a Fusion kit I built a few years back. But I have been getting into the ribbed barrel setups and decided to convert my 10mm. I shot it before painting it and it is an awesome upgrade
I couldn't use the old slide because the front sight cut would show
So the frame is Fusion, the new slide is Caspian and the barrel is an Infinity match barrel

it was no slouch before the re vamp and I need to go back to the classifieds and bump my old upper now that I think of it.

rjklein4470: Thank you for posting that picture. What a beautiful Colt you have there. Gorgeous!

 

[Dr.Midnight]

I really like this Colt. Was it worked on by Colt's Custom Shop?

 

[benzkomp]

Dude, these pics make me want to get one and fix it up. It gets expensive though

That reveal cut on the bottom of the slide is hot! Was that your touch Allen?
