Another one ready to go home. This is a Pro Series Fusion Government Steel frame stainless slide that Partyboy6686 purchased and I have been building for him.
We test fired it last Thursday and I refinished and reassembled this weekend.
Below is a portion of the work I put into it.
These are awesome kits and you end up with a very nice custom pistol that will last a lifetime and beyond.
This is my 5th Fusion Kit I have done and they played a big part in teaching me the ropes of building a 1911.
Having done 1911's from scratch it was a pleasure to do a kit
The beginnings:
Fitting Trigger
Polishing trigger track
Sear pin was not counter sunk:
now it is
Main spring housing was rough inside so it got lapped in
Grip safety before:
Plus it rubbed on the frame:
Blending magwell
Before:
after:
Ambi safety fit before:
Doing Ball cuts on the slide
Pre fitting everything
Barrel flush cut and crowned:
Time to refinish:
Baking parts:
Next I have to say I took all the pics and uploaded them without realizing all the lint that was in the pics and was to lazty to redo them sorry
Finally Cerakote Graphite Black with Sniper Gray controls:
