I am going to order a 1911 and saw brown offers custom serials. Anyone else doing this that I should be looking at?

Found this one on GB, don't know if someone else posted this, but it made me laugh and I had to share: https://www.gunbroker.com/item/916369962

As much as I regret letting this go, I am selling this Nighthawk Custom Talon II chambered in 10mm. This firearm has approximately 400 rounds fired so far, which it has cycled flawlessly. Has wear on the barrel bushing and rear slide checkering from carry/use. Will come with 2x mags, an...

I recently picked this up from a friend that bought it at the local gun shop. It was advertised and marketed as a Colt 1911 "Armand Swenson Custom" when he purchased it. I am not familiar with Swenson work but just from the little research I've done I'm not sure he did the work or not. I can see...

For once, I think I may send off a gun to have some custom work done. Being of modest means, I’m trying to stay in 1400-1700 range, to include refinish in Nitride. Gun is a 2018 build Colt Combat Commander. Current wants are below, feel free to add on, subtract, change, whatever. I sent the...

Looking at a 2008 model with a checkered past. I first saw it at the dealer back just after COVID appeared. Back then it sported a FDE cerakote finish and was offered on consignment at $2300 IIRC with something like 16 magazines, case, papers, etc. The consignee apparently gave up and sold it...

I look forward to putting lots of fingerprints on this one.😉

I've been on this forum almost a year and a half. I joined just after I purchased my first 1911. I wasn't looking to join a gun forum, but was searching for some info. While searching, I came across 1911 Addicts. As I began to read through some threads I became impressed. The vast amount of...

During the lockdown/ C19 I thought I was going to have a lot more free time and decided to buy a build- it -yourself 2011 Slide/Frame/barrel kit from L10 now Rogue Tac. The goal was to learn gunsmithing and a new hobby. Fast forward and I haven’t touched it due to work/family. Are there any...

Sorry I’ve been MIA for a while guys, moving is a pain and my service is really spotty working the oil fields but my new house will be done in a few weeks just in time for my 40th and fishing season to start here in Alaska. Well my smith sent me photos today and the first of my two custom full...

Disclaimer, Some of these pictures are quite old and the quality sucks! Damn flip phones. My favorite 1911 is my first 1911. Back sometime in the late 1990's I turned 21 years old. Shortly afterwards I purchased my first hangun, a Springfield Armory 1911 Mil-spec. When I went to the gun...

Custom Glock 19 with Unity Tactical Atom slide, iron sights and a trijicon RMR 07, zev trigger, and TAU Development Group Striker Control Device (SCD). The slide has been cerakoted in a camo pattern. Frame has been professionally stippled. Gun and Rmr function perfectly. Asking for $1200 shipped.

For those not aware, Richard is customizing pistols again. He’s got an apprentice, Henry, and together they are building custom 1911’s at the Heinie shop once again. They’ve got some pistols ready for sale, but will also do a custom build for you. Have a look. https://www.heinie.com/pistolsmithing/

I have this old Government Model that I have been thinking about doing something a little special to. Option 1. Leave it as is but I really don’t enjoy shooting a 45 without a flared ejection port. On the other hand it’s old school cool. Option 2. Set it up as a semi-BBQ gun, flared port...

Another Springer Custom from my collection is a classic blend of form and function, and this beauty is the mother of all tack drivers. You won’t find a more accurate platform than a high end 9mm longslide, as evidenced by the test target shown below: better than 1.5” groups at 50 yards! This...

I'm based out of California so I cannot purchase a 9mm or 10mm Nighthawk unless it's a private party transfer. IF someone in California is looking to sell one, please contact me.

Hi guys, I touched on this in another thread, but are there any quality holsters that have Kydex to secure the slide and leather for the rest of the holster? Would that even work properly? I haven’t seen anything from reputable companies, and definitely not for the guns I want it for. (EDC X9S...

I have a EVO by Dave at Evolution Armory and am currently waiting on a build from Ted Yost. The EVO has been shot plenty and will be shot plenty more. Same with the Yost. Neither was purchased to be put in a case and looked at or for some future ROI. Now my question is this though, some...

Evening folks! I hope everyone is doing well! I've been out of the game for a while and am starting plans to get together a 'beater' 1911 (just lots of use, very simple) that won't require a ton of gunsmith work. Because I don't know if factory work is an option, I posted here. If it fits...
