Nice! You can see the attention to detail in the edges. They are all so consistently broken.

This is everything I want in a 1911, right down to "no fscking full-length guide rod."

Last picture was blurry

the last pic was amateur porn haha!
and the trigger breaks clean with no creep at 4lbs, no up and down or side to side play.

What kind of sights are you going to put on this?

I can't wait to pull it. I like a trigger that's only movement is productive movement. I'll do a write up on it when I win

sights on!
The rear is a Harrison combat wide notch, and I machined the front sight today, and hand serrated. hopefully monday she will be on the way to hard chrome and the Display box will be done and ready to get this raffle rolling.
Thanks all and good luck, I will post completed pictures upon return.....

Is the serrations on the top of the slide for show/to reduce glare or something else?

the flat top lowers the sight plain and allows you to run a taller front sight, the serrations reduce glare and are a nice touch on a customs pistol.

Thats some nice work. Colt built some factory flat tops (no cuts or checkers added) in the FR serial numbers guns built in the late 80's or early 90's. I have one- it makes a difference- in a rush, you can use that flat amost like rib when shooting reflexifly
Some luck stiffs gonna get a work of art there.

ok range report time,
500 rounds no failure to feed or eject
tested ammo
Winchester 230g JRN white box
Winchester 185g JFN white box
Winchester 230g JHP defense loads
25 yard field fire from ransom rest
ammo test: 185 grain jacked flat nose Winchester white box ammo (this ammo is off the self from wal-mart)
Group size: 1.004 center to center from a ransom rest
Shots: 5 shot group
After the gun returns from hard chrome I will shoot match grade hand loads and re-post the results, as most shooters know factory guns will not shoot under 2 inchs with Winchester ammo, so if Joe blow can go to wal-mart and pick up a box and shoot 1.004@25yards, its hard to beat that folks.
Thanks,
Anthony Durning
