1911 Show-N-Tell

[Six Shooter Steve]

Colt Gold Cup Trophy. Hasn't been fired yet, but that won't last long with me

Damn! That's a good looking 1911. How do those grips feel? They look good, but I am not sure I would like the smoothness when shooting.

Feel good in the hand. Don't know about shooting yet, haven't took it to the range yet. I have a few sets of grips to try on it that are different textures.

Picked this beauty up today.
Aftermarket steel MSH, extended slide stop, and pretty rosewood grips.

Wow, that's nice!

Wow, that's nice!

Glad you think so. I traded yours for it. And left purple grips on it.

That was a good trade. I don't know if I could have parted with mine had it looked like the one you just got.

Not sure you need to change, because they look badass! BUT if you don't like the feel at the range, then you might have too. Nice gun man!

Cool collection. Must be where Sig got the 938 design from

Cool collection. I really like the first one. Must be where Sig got its 938 design from

A small sampling of my original (Seattle) Detonics Combat Masters.

Of the the first 250 made, LN/99.5% condition (possibly unfired?)

Un-catalogued factory made custom gun for a Detonics executive, no slide engravings, no model marks. This gun is a cross between a MK V and a MK VI, so I guess its a MK V.V

Mark IV:

Rare 9mm version (less than 350 total guns were made in 9mm) this is a top of the line MK VI

Rare 9mm version of the MK V

45acp version of the MK VI

45acp version of the MC

very rare 38 Super version of the MC (less than 250 made of all versions)

Just recently jointed the 1911 club with a Springfield EMP. Now looking for a little bigger one to complement it. I am a sucker for 1911s.

 

[bonnellt]

love the all black! Really sharp.

That's a sweet trigger on your 1911!

I finally got around to photographing my Remington R1s bought about a month or two ago. I really like how this gun captures the feel of a WWII 1911 but with updates. It goes well with my 1944 Colt. I really like 1911s with the straight slide serrations. The only mod I've done is to redo the grips. I stripped them of the shiney stuff, recheckered them, stained and gave them a couple of coats of linseed oil.

Here is a Smith Pro Series I have owned for a couple of years now.
Love it!

 

[cmamath13]

Love Smiths! Nice pistol man!

Thank you. Me too. My goal is to get a few more Smiths, I really like the E series.

Another ingo member and friend started beating on me about the Colt right when I posted it. I had it sold SPF and the gentle men had to back out. I was a bit disgruntled and put it back up. The beating continued and yesterday he shows up with a bag full of 1911's. 1 hour later the trading and arm wrestling was over and I now have 2 Kimbers.
The Colt was going anyway. I like Colts but not stuck with having to own them. I have had more nit-pick issues with Colts than my Springers.

Glitch, I would have held onto it for you.
