    Hope Everyone has a Great Easter Weekend, had to put the final spit-shine on this Colt before getting to the ham.

    This build will be getting a Twin built end of the year, and should be a fine set of pretty basic, classic Colt builds . . .Enjoy!

    1973 Colt Large Letter Govt Model 45
    Kart NM Barrel
    EGW NM Bushing
    EGW BTGS
    JEM MSH
    10-8 Rear Sight
    SDM Gold Bead front
    VZ Polished Micarta with Colt Medallions added here
    Blued finish

    Forgive the rushed photos, tried to squeeze outdoor pictures in between rain drops today...

    Beautiful Colt Mr.Beining!
    I have to say, this forum has some the finest examples of a 1911, and what they could be. It never ceases to amaze me. Pure class!

    Do you think he will be upset if I just keep it?

    Fine looking pistol, I like the contrast between the Micarta and bluing.
