    I'm looking for 1911 parts in the Indianapolis area. I hate ordering from brownells and midway because their pictures suck and are such low resolution as to give no sizeing or detail. I'm very particular about the feel of the parts I install. The parts may not be visible inside the gun but I feel the differences in how they interact that's why I like to see them up close to know whether it will fit my requirements.

    Looking for suggestions on a shop that has the following parts for an original colt 1911.

    Hammer
    Sear
    Grip safety
    Thumb safety


    I'd settle for a shop that stocks just the safeties.

    Thanks for reading. I appreciate any input.

    I don't know if this will be any help to you or not. I don't know of any local dealers because I have looked around also for the same reasons you mentioned.
    The best alternative I have come up with is Fusion Firearms

    If you call on the phone the president of the company answers, Bob Serva.
    He will answer all you questions and their online pics are good quality.
    But you have to use the search feature to find anything on the website.

    I think Elmore's in Greenwood carries some parts, or at least used to. There is an INDY 1500 this weekend as well, there may be some parts there.
