Thanks Mike. I have a set of Larry Davidson Horn Lizards coming in soon. The Walnut Burls dont match the gun now that it's not stainless anymore.

This is also posted in Greg Derr's thread but I thought I'd post it here. Greg did an amazing job on my 1911!

"This is a Colt owned by a NES member. It came in with a host of issues. First it had a Millett "duel crimp" front sight which was removed, then the offending holes were welded up and a new dovetail was cut. The rear Colt sight was replaced with a Novak low mount sight. A new McCormack beavertail was close fit as well as a new trigger. The collet bushing was replaced with an EGW oversized bushing, and the barrel recrowned with a deep bevel. All the scratches and dings were smoothed out prior to rebluing."

He also lowered the ejection port.

I let one go a few years back, tossed the idea of building a custom but then money and a chance to buy this NIB came together !!
