[QUOTE="Jon1911, post: 725354, member: 4816"] I'm probably going to leave it alone for a while with the exception of the Hogue grips. I used to like them, but when I learned how to grip a 1911 properly, I found that the finger grooves mess me all up because I'm not able to have my fingers crowd the bottom of the trigger guard like they should. I got it so I have the option of doing a hardcore build later because of the 5100 steel. I was pretty impressed with the accuracy at the 50ft mark the other night when I took it out and shot it. Despite the less than stellar frame-slide fit, it kept them in a fairly nice group at 50 ft at the indoor range. I don't mind giving up the price. It was listed at $399 at the dealer's booth, but he moved a little on price, and it came out to $401 after the tax/fees. The Colt mag that came with it was pretty ugly, gave me one misfeed. I may try to clean it up a bit and lube it, but I may just stick with the Kimber, Wilson, and Chip Mags I already have. [/QUOTE]
