I bought this almost a year ago but I finally got the cash up to make a few changes. I employed the help of a local gunsmith that specializes in 1911s. I picked it up last week. I haven't decided what I'm doing with the finish yet... It's my summertime carry and a real workingman's gun so finish isn't important to me.
Before....
And after....
The sights are fiber in the front and a 10-8 rear. The idea here is to duplicate the sights on my winter carry Government 1911. The grip safety is a Smith & Alexander beaver tail. The trigger is a WWI GI. The barrel bushing is an EGW melt. The grips are Dura Grips Wasp Nest.
