    Patriot Arms 1911

    I came across this deal on patriot arms. $675 for complete 1911 build kit sans jig. http://www.uspatriotarmory.com/product-p/191145fde.htm
    Of course I'm asking for my cousin who lives out of state and is allowed to homebuild. Anyway, for my cousin the whole reason he wanted to do a home build was to make a top of the line 1911. This would be his first 1911 build.
    Any experience with this kit? Would you suggest it? He is hesitant because he wants to upgrade trigger, mag release slide stop. I told him this would be a good place to start and could always upgrade parts later.
    Any feedback would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    all in all it seems like a good value for a first build however it is important to note that the frame is Aluminum.

    Many might well prefer a steel based frame.
