That's an awesome gun, but I would never pay that for a 1911.

the problem with customizations to a gun, each one makes it more specific to individual needs, and therefore a smaller customer base.

If that was 100% of what you'd want done (including EXACTLY 3.5 lb trigger pull not 3.3 or 3.7, I'm a 3.2 guy) you wouldn't want that pistol (well really adjusting the trigger pull a little bit isn't hard to do. but you get the idea, if thats not the main spring housing you want, its not worth it.

If it was worth it to you, you would have read it, looked at the specs for each part and bought it, and wouldn't need outside opinions.

Its only for competition due to the full length rail set that is really just there to add weight. Is it way better than anything I've got? Yeah, is it worth more than 1000 to me because I won't appreciate half the mods he has? NOpe, not worth more than 1000 to me.
