Jarhead:
I got one from JLD awhile back. I've had Colts, Kimbers,Paras, even a Norinco and this is the best value for the money. HTH....SRM |

I had one a while back---refinished---no numbers matched and the barrel was pitted pretty bad. Still shot great!!! If it has matching numbers and a good barrel---grab it!

Thanks for the rapid replies!
Any advice on how to improve the triggers on these guns, this one sucks. If there is a quick fix, I will buy the gun tomorrow. I intend to have it re-blued (I would like to do it myself, so any advice on this is appreciated) and I want fake ivory grips. Thanks for the help. Jarhead |

I'd say virtually every pistol smith can do a reasonable trigger job on a 1911. Look through Brownells and they have everything you need to do it yourself if you are reasonable cautious.
