Remember this debacle? Well I sent my parts off to a different shop and they just came back! The only downer is it seems some parts got dropped and got a few dings but I'm just glad to have that ordeal over with. This is my approximate replica of an early M45 MEUSOC 1911 so some aspects of this build might upset the purists. However, this is something I threw together using limited hand tools in a studio apartment so I'm very proud of how this turned out. Thanks for looking!
