Some Rock Island treatment

That is another outstanding job. Makes me want another 1911! Or can we just build another top half for mine?

I think a Fusion kit is in order

Fusion kit? Now I must Google.

Constituent -> a component part of something.

I.e. building it from all of it's individual parts rather than as a kit or pre-assembled gun.

The word has other meanings as well but, in this case, it means from it's individual pieces .

It's not practical to build a beater cost from individual parts.

It just so happens i will have a spare one any day now. But they arent beaters

Wasn't meaning to build a beater - either get a beater and clean it up [i.e. functional but ugly gun] or get a kit and fit and finish it the way I want it done .

I will Google this fusion kit to see what it is .

You sir, have a gift. I really enjoy looking at your astonishing works of art on here. In fact I envy your skills. I would love to do gunsmithing like this, but I'm lacking in the "paint" department and afraid that any investment in schooling could be wasteful if I were unable to "renew" guns like what I see on here. Enough with the threadjacking, congrats on the nice 1911.

The painting is not as difficult to learn........not that I encourage compitition .
Thanks for the kind words.

Fusion kits are great. So many options to choose from. I ordered one about a month ago.

I cant wait for the order to come in. Im ready for you to build me my newest 1911

Dang skippy. He's my 1911 choppy chop hero.

Scary thing is he's my Glock hero as well... I just need to work up the nerve to have him do some frame work to match the slide work he did for me...

The inner-conflict must be killing him...

I have no problem working on the metal slide. it's the sitting down with a solider iron and making pitts in plastic that I haven't been able to make myself do

I don't think I can get there either... but there may be another mod or 2 that would be interesting
