    Actually they are a little better than that. :laugh:

    That's cold man. You will put much butt hurt on the RIA crowd....much butt hurt........:rofl:

    I am in the middle of tightening up an RIA for a family member. His first 1911 and budget conscious. I take all the stock bits from the Colts and Springers we hot Rod and love on them, fit them to an RIA and suddenly you have a straight shooting, reliable piece.....:dunno:

    I look for the RIA poll to be bumped up shortly. :laugh: RIA is suppose to be entry level, well the buyer better not be. :)

    Hey, I just finished doing that myself. It's good to have a use for all of those spare Colt parts. I also stripped, cleaned up the fit and cold blued it and the darn thing turned out pretty nice. Eventually, it will get rust blued but not until I practice front strap checkering on it. It sure could use better sights on it now.



    See, just as good as a $7100 WC. I think I'll post this in the classifieds now, but will not accept a penny less than $5000.

    I wouldn't ask over $50 till you get that RIA billboard off. :laugh:
