Nice. You'll definitely get one when the next batch is released.

Damn, Skip... That's some nice hardware! I suspect a few forum members have some amazingly nice pieces. hope to see more here.
I do have this one, too, but it's obviously a repro. It's fun to fondle, though.

The blue on that repo is beautiful and you can shoot her!
My shooter is a Colt O1991 (sans plastic MSH)...
Hasn't had a hiccup that was its fault, I blame the cheap Colt factory mags. Bought some Mecgars that have run great and keep wondering if I should pick up some of the Wilson mags, but I don't shoot this gun enough to justify the $$$.
Need moar 1911 pics gents!!!

I've found the Kimber Tac-Mags and the McCormick PowerMags work best in mine. I love the Wilson mags but hate plastic followers. If they had a metal follower they'd be pretty much perfect.

That's the funny thing about 1911 mags... There are gazillions of them and it's such a basic design, a decent one should be $7. But nope, you're spending $35+.

These nice guns make me appreciate my beat up war gun even more.

My old Colt from the first picture is pretty rough on the other side from poor storage. Rough and beat up is perfectly OK...I never worry about taking it out and shooting it.

Plenty of reasons to buy guns, one of which is regular shooting. When I get my 1911 from CMP I'll shoot it, but I've got plenty of modern, less valuable, non-collectible guns that will I'll shoot far more regularly. And if anyone questions if these guns are worth what CMP is asking, all you need to do is attend auctions or look at Gunbroker to see that comparable USGI 1911s almost always sell for more.
