1911 pics?

[Bawanna]

Are the Rocks cut for Novak Low Mounts or you have to do that.

Parkerizing turned out super.

Thanks
This model come with those sights (here's a link to the current version of this model). The sights are in the style of Novak, but the front sight is cut a little differently (deeper dovetail); I'm not sure if the rear is cut differently.

Figure I should add a picture of my first 1911. Remington R1 Enhanced. I've owned a Browning Hi Power in the past, and I finally broke down and had to see what this 1911 fuss is all about. This is a sweet shooter. Real nice trigger pull and everything. Think I got a pretty good deal on it too. Sorry to say, I've been shooting it a bit more than my Kahr lately, although the Kahr still gets out to play every range session.

Very nice. My son has the enhanced, I got the plain model which I wanted since I had others with all the goodies. Both are great guns and shooters.

Idiot Scratch Proof

This is a modification I do on just about all slide stops as it allows easy installation and doesn't affect function. It is easily done with a needle file. To install, the slide stop is positioned directly on top of the plunger and you can feel it saddle over it and push it straight in. Bingo!








Here's a picture of it in place and ready to push straight in.

Nice pistol Ken L! Thanks for sharing it with us
Like you, Bawanna, and his son, I also have an R1 (an R1S) and find it to be a great shooter. It's one of my favorites.

I finally got around to doing a little cosmetic metal work on my RIA 1911FS in 9mm. Some filing/sanding/blasting, then a dip in the parkerizing pot, and it was ready for some VZ grips I picked up on Ebay:

What a beauty! How does she shoot! Isn't it interesting that folks refer to guns as "she"!?!?! Hmmmmmmm

[Bawanna]

Somebody used those exact words asking about you. What a beauty, how does she shoot.

I think there's a connection.

Some folks I've shot with several times have told me; "If you can get that same look on your face without a gun, no one would mess with you! And that's the truth!
I'm kinda intense and focused. Shooting is serious business. Besides, what would someone expect from an inner city Detroit gal.

Sig 1911 Commander in stainless with rail. Apparently Sig only made a few thousand of these back in 2008, they don't appear anywhere in their catalogs or on their web site.

Spiffied up a bit with Novak sights and VZ grips.

I wonder why sig dropped them?

No idea. I did some research before buying it (from a fellow member on a firearm forum) and couldn't find any info at all on "Sig stainless commander with rail" save a couple of posts on 1911.com. (https://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=219314)

That's hot Todd. I'm a big fan of stainless... I think Sig drifted over towards tactical black. Especially if the gun has a rail. I think I like yours better. Nice!

Thanks MB! It's always been a good shooter with very mild recoil.
