Very nice. No-bling is definitely the way I like 'em.

.....Thanks for sharing. This probably could have gone in the picture thread.

Trigger, hammer, sights and added serrations are all kind of blingy.

I like it.

She's nice - Give us a breakdown of the parts on her please -

Is that DEA on the hammer?

[hybridatsun350]

Yea, there is definitely quite a bit of bling on that gun. However, I will agree that it is black. haha

It's just a $450 Metro Arms 1911

out of the box:
* “Novak” style fixed, three-dot dovetailed sights.
* Extended magazine release button.
* Extended slide stop.
* Extended single-sided speed thumb safety.
* Extended and widened beavertail grip safety.
* Skeletonized Colt Commander type hammer.
* Long steel trigger with over-travel stop.
* Flat, grooved mainspring housing.
* Italian “ACT” 8-round magazine (private branded by Novak’s .45 Shop)
* Slightly extended ejector, lowered and scalloped ejection port.

I'm trying different grips on it to see what I shoot best.

Here's a review of them:

So far, so good. I've had the sights adjusted and a trigger job done on it.

Ah now I recalled this gun - Unfortunately even if it's a great gun - Not on our CA roster -

dang...what about the "FireStorm" model? Same company, same gun.

[Saigon1965]

No go either - The roster pisses us off here in CA to hell and back - I can't wait for the day the lawsuit comes to fruition - Until then - We'll just lust -
