    1911 part(s)

    Would anyone be interested in purchasing 1911 parts machined from the highest quality bar stock? Simple parts from slide stops, to beavertails.

      Yes, I'am collaborating with a friend of mine that owns a shop flooded with CNC machines. First I need to figure out who would be interested in purchasing and then start taking orders.

          I will buy anything at the right price.
          Just to let you know, EGW do offer a line of high quality material 1911 parts, their HD and Tungsten parts prices are what you will have to competing with.

            I completely understand where you're coming from. Right now this is just a thought. I have all the resources to make this come to life and be successful in the competitive industry.

              If I were you, I would offer something unique that is not in the market yet.
              Example, I am looking for somebody to make a Barrett MRAD brake for 30 cal.

                To be honest Im not educated as thorough in the rifle area of firearms. If you could break it down for me I would be happy to pass it on.

                  if you could machine "meusoc"rear sights,you will never be able to keep up with demand!!!!! only the us marine gunsmiths have ever made these rear sights. also "millett single stake serrated front sights. if you google" berryhill meusoc" there is great info on these parts.

                    PROPERLY made Mainspring Housings are fast sellers too, just be sure your MSH's are much better than the Masen brand. Triggers, GI style guide rods and one pc FLGRs with their corresponding plugs should be fast sellers.

                    On the triggers, the GI style short, black solid and the long, black solid is in short supply, it seems.

                    Good luck!

                      Before you make anything I suggest you learn your competition- learn it well enough to sell it as you will be selling against it. Learn what people like about it and what they don't, then find your niche. That is your best way to find success in this business or any other for that matter.

The full length dust cover rail makes a world of difference in the "when I run out of bullets I'm going to beat you to death with the pistol" look that causes bad guys to run in fear, and lesser men to feel inadequate. It looks just plain beastly and the extra heft up front does help manage recoil a bit better. Plus, an angel told me that when God called JMB to heaven it was to build him a full rail 1911!

                          Kinda old thread...is the OP still here.

                          Well, I do want a few (about 5 at the moment) S&A magwell/mag-guide...$80 is pretty steep.
                          Similar design of 1 piece, and priced around $55, will be a deal in my book.
