I just traded for a Range Officer, and now I am trying to decide what to do for upgrades. At a minimum I am going to replace the MSH and add an ambi-safety. Probably get some new grips as well, and possibly a flared magwell. Any other necessary upgrades or modifications? Best source for parts? Right now I am looking at Ed Brown and Wilson Combat. Also, what aftermarket magazines run well in this pistol?
This is my first 1911 project, so I want to do it right. Pics to follow when it comes in the mail. |

... Any other necessary upgrades or modifications? .... Shoot it and decide for yourself what the short comings of the pistol are. No sense in dropping a bunch of money on parts just to do it. These really are not meant to address any shortcomings. Mostly just for cosmetic, and to make it "mine." I have a crippling disease which leaves me unable to leave things stock 
One big question. Can I add a bobtailed MSH to this pistol, or would that require the frame to be rounded off? Pretty much I just like the bobtail look. No other reason. |
