Here's a close cousin: my 1991 Double Eagle Officers Lightweight ACP, cal. .45 ACP.

An almost 1911: one of my .22 Bullseye guns.

Play gun built for my son in 2012. Caspian frame and slide. Cylinder and Slide fire control system; barrel is Schumann Ulti-match gain twist bull barrel, all other parts EGW.
For all the hype these barrels are a very expensive disappointment. Best 50 yard Ramsom Rest groups with my Bullseye Ammo is 2 1/4”.
The barrel has been replaced by a Kart and with same ammo the gun groups just under 1”.
The finish is hard chrome and yes it is oily in these old pictures.
Just noticed that the slide stop was not pushed all the way up when the slide was locked back. Operator error; certainly no fault of the builder.

I’m new here, so thought this would be a good place to jump in and post something, usually I’m just asking questions and not able to contribute much since I’m new to 1911s. But now a honest to gosh fanatic!
;-D
Its Springfield Armory 4.25” LW (Commander) Ronin in 9mm.

First pic is with factory thin grips it came with and second is with custom set of smooth Cocobolo in between full thickness and thin.
Usually thin grips are about .190 & full thickness .270, these are .125 and really like this thickness.

Just got it few weeks ago and haven’t been able to shoot it yet.
But really impressed with how tight everything is & fits. No movement at muzzle, hood & slide to frame fit is has no side to side or vertical movement.

It’s not overly tight, just really nice fit, kinda surprised how nice to be honest.

Cheers, Allen

Not the best pictures, but those are my current 1911's. SA RO 9mm (now has stag grips), Kimber .45, and DW PMC.

My gun from Integrity Arms is supposed to be started after Steve finishes his current guns. Looks like I will need a smaller 1911 to fit in the spot on the right.
