The CZickness VI

[Birds Away]

Honestly, I am not sure it can be fixed. But, it isn't my area of expertise.

I'm pretty torn up about this situation. I really like this gun, despite the crack, it's got a lot going for it. I really want to just fix it and move forward. However, I don't want to screw it up trying to fix it and really don't want to pay someone a bunch of money to fix it for me. So I think I'm just kind of like right now with the whole thing.

Side note: Work has been hell on me lately, lots of work load, lots of stress. On top of that I'm having a sibling's car problems shoved down my throat that I don't want to deal with, but can't seem to slam the door and say no. I didn't need more problems on my plate.

I hope you guys dont mind me sticking my head in here once and a while, but I just happened to click on this thread this morning.
T-DOGG if you take the guts out of the frame and mail me the slide and frame I can take care of this for you.....if you decide to go that route.

I dont see much cost involved if you like the idea of "adding character" to it

I'm glad you poked in. You were the first person I thought of to fix this. If I go that route, I will take you up on that offer.
Thanks

AllenM to the rescue, again.

That CZ must be saved. We cannot leave a man behind!

Most certainly, as long as it is safe to operate.

Piece of cake.
I already have the correct TIG rod for welding on 1911 frames and rails. I see no reason it would not be sufficient for this

Good morning everyone, hope everything works out for you Travis!

If you trust it, then I trust it.

Morning, Barry.

 

[RustyHornet]

Am I the only one upset because I don't have the ugliest 75 anymore?

 

[RustyHornet]

Morning Barry and anyone else lurking.

 

[Snapdragon]

I would still contact Bud's and see if they will adjust the price. The gun you bought was supposed to be in operating condition even if it was not in good cosmetic shape.

We need side by side pictures. I'm still in your corner on this one.

Yeah but but but his is cracked and will have a badass scar on it now...

I'm sure we could find something hard enough to crack yours on. Hmm, let me see. Take off your hat.
