Custom shop 1911 from Springfield at Gilberts!

This pistol was sweet! Tight as hell but expected from this grade of gun. Jason said it was the same build as the FBI orders and they are getting a great piece! Its tight as hell and the woman from the custom shop told Jason 1K rounds for break in and I can easily see that. Oh and the price...if you have to ask you can't afford it....I did and I can't!

well let's see photos man!!!

yeah, i priced those and found it easier to just buy a loaded model and have it worked on at intervals. Now my loaded rivals the TRP easily (match grade barrel and bushing, slide to frame tightening, polished internals...and soon to be trigger, sear, disconnector, and hammer job).

I'm not saying yours isn't as nice as this but I don't see how you can start from a loaded model and end up being this good. I have a TRP and it ain't this good.

It did find a new home quite quickly. The guy I sold it to laughed when I told him how tight it was, then he put his hands on it and couldn't believe you could barely operate the slide

I will have more in the future ... generally it takes about 6 months to get them and we stagger the order out. Best guess we will have more in August

Take Care
Jason
