I usually don't care for "older" guns. I have to say though that the two photos of the 1911's from WWI & WWII, that were carried by family members of their current owners are great!

I can't imagine being more proud of owning a firearm than having a piece like that, with all it's history in my collection.

Really cool!!

     Here's my 1911 collection.  Three Kimbers, a Stainless Gold Match, A Gold Combat, and a PRO CDP.  There's my Para Ord P10 Limited which is my carry gun, and then there's my Norinco 1911 which is stock except for the ambi safety, Dweyer Group Gripper, and Hogue grips.

My first 1911. A Kimber Custom Target that I got yesterday.

I agree with M4. The 1911's from WWI & WWII are very cool. Just looking at them makes me think of where they have been and what they and their owners went through.

Here's a pic of my Systema Colt that I stripped down to the frame and rebuilt with all the custom features I was looking for in a 1911.It just came back from www.trippresearch.com to be Cobra Chromed.

Awright, DavidC--is it one of the early (pre-Double Eagle) Double Action conversions on a 1911?  Not sure who did the bulk of the conversions, but I recall reading about them a while back.

Just got my Para Ord P12 back from Caswell's after they installed an Ed Brown beavertail grip safety. Also found a carton of Winchester (nickel-plated) small rifle primers there.
