I built a Fusion 6" 10mm. Sti frame and slide.
Unless you have all of the specialty tools to do a quality job on fitting all the parts you will come out cheaper buying a complete gun. Love my gun, absolutey the smoothest feeling 1911 I have ever pulled the slide back on. Going to put a gain twist barrel from Shuemann on it. |
| I finished one Fusion kit, and have been very happy with it. The typical kit has the frame, slide, barrel, bushing all fitted, you just need to fit the remaining parts. I also had Fusion build me a basic Commander that I have been fairly happy with. In the end the price between buying a kit and all the parts was only slightly cheaper than the complete Fusion pistol. Although I did have a lot of fun putting the kit together. Either way, Fusion sells quality components and has great customer service in my experience. |
