My first ever 1911 a Dan Wesson vigil commander in 45. I am super impressed so far with how effortlessly accurate this thing is even at extended ranges, after 300-400 more rounds it will probably replace my g19 for edc and night stand gun.

I approve this message.  Nice Infinity, I assume it's 9mm because of the threaded barrel?

Here are two I built from 80% frames. The one in the back was a Rock Island builders kit, and the one in the front is a Taurus PT1911 that was stripped down and sold without the frame. I cut the Nighthawk style front end into the Taurus with files after belt sanding the giant Taurus logo off the slide. They're manganese parkerized.

It wasn't bad at all. A lot of MIM stuff as you would expect at that price point, but nearly everything was slightly oversized allowing for a perfect fit with some filing and sanding. I didn't have to touch the barrel bushing or lower lugs and link (which is good because the link pin is staked on both sides and wasn't coming out). I think I paid $350 from Hooper Gun Works for it? I didn't need to replace anything from it, I just wanted a stainless trigger and magwell/G10 grips. You can sort of tell in the pictures, but it came out a nice rich black in the parkerizing (I bead blasted with 220 grit after all of my fitting and testing); the Taurus kit came out a bit more grey with the same process.

I watched Youtube videos for about 6 months before convincing myself to make the plunge. I don't have a mill or anything, I just got the frame cutter and the decking jig from Matrix and an assortment of files. You need a few other specialty tools like the barrel alignment block and locking rod, and you might need a lower lug cutter from Brownells. It's definitely not cheaper if you only build one or two, but building them is really satisfying and the tools should last me a lifetime of use so I'm sure I'll get my money's worth out of them.

All three look nice! Just picked mine up today. Waiting on my LGS to log in my Commander so I can do the paper work on it. Wilson mags were a little bit of a tight fit in the Colt but I’ll see how they run tomorrow.

Thanks! Still waiting for my Shipment from Natchez to ship, but I was able to find 40 rounds of Speer today at my LGS. Looks like my CM mags shipped yesterday.
