[QUOTE="glowworm, post: 2899112, member: 38537"] So, I've got the 1911 back together and it appears to function as it should. All the parts added were Ed Brown. National Match trigger, Perfection Sear and Disconnector, Commander hammer, Beavertail safety, and finally, the bobtail mainspring housing. Both safeties work as they should. I've got some massaging to do to the grip safety because there appears to be a reset hangup (any ideas?) Of course, everything needed to be fitted. I still need to do some polishing and final blending, then I need to get the slide dovetailed for new sights. Final step will be cerakote or some other finish. Because I was rushing, I dorked up the grips and they aren't even, but I think I've got a spare set laying around. I'll probably go with a set of VZ grips once I'm done, so I'm not too concerned. Constructive criticism is welcome!!![ATTACH=full]58893[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]58894[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
