well  i officially own a 1911 now.  just purchased a used springfield mil spec cheap,  dirt cheap. it has nothing at all done to it i all ready scratched the perk finish on it putting it back togeather so thats gotta go.  think i am going dura coat some flat color.  but thats just cosmetics.  this thing had hardly any rounds thru it.  gotta love family owned guns. lol 200 bucks seems like a killer deal.  i put a box of ammo thru it.  ran flawless to my surprise  but still gonna send it to novak for some sights.   is that the first thing i should do?  i need to get some thiner grips i think the mag drop is to far away i have to roll it to get it with my thumb. the safty is tight,  will that free up more the more i use it?  can i get stainless or aluminum?  where's everyone get parts brownells?   any tips let me know    thanks

whats the best way to go on sights?   i'm thinking novak fully adjustable black back and tritium or fiber optic front also adjustable   just so i can sight in with what i reload and not stuck with one round.  since the back is all ready dove tailed will it fit or will i have to get mill work on that as well as the front  
Love the gun though runs flawless so far with about 100 rounds thru it but i also have wilson combat mag's.

The slide is gonna need milling if you plan to go with that setup.

will the back and front need work?  the back has a dove tail all ready but is it different size for a novak sight?
