    Just got my Operator back from Ray Saltzman, had an Ed Brown mag well put on, 25 LPI front strap checkering added as well as a trigger guard cut, a new fitted bushing installed as well as a trigger job. Its basically the perfect TRP at this point for me since I do not care for bull barreled full sized guns with sandpaper for front strap checkering lol.

    What color is that frame. Interesting.

    My operator is set up very similar except I put an ED Brown Barrel and bushing (hand fit not drop in) in mine with the forged ignition parts and MagWell. It is a killer.
    Also have the Bull Barrel model with near the same work save the new barrel. I did fir the accurizing bushing in it and it also is a killer.

    Its OD green, I am a big Metal Gear Solid fan (Video Game Series) and this was the color scheme for the main characters 1911 of the same name so I had to go for it. I asked Ray about a new barell and he said it would have been pointless as the barrel was already fit so well to the gun so I left it alone.

    Don't get me wrong I LOVE guns! But every once in a while I see one that simply calls to me. You sir have accomplished that. Never thought I would say that about a railed 1911.
