My First Custom 1911 Build Has Started

As far as I can remember, options at this time are 25 LPI front strap checkering, flattened and serrated top of slide, frame cut for ramped 9mm barrel, recessed slide stop hole, carry ‘meld’, all new internals, and night sights.

Don’t usually get night sights on 1911’s, but this one will be carried a lot at night, so why not.

I wanted a blued gun, but decided to go with the DLC finish, with a lightly brushed slide.

I feel kinda like a kid in a candy store. Hope it gets done before Christmas, but will wait to have it done right.
