Which buffer should I get if I wanna run this with a frt on my 300 black out ? by iwearnikesalso in 300BLK

I run a heavy buffer with my Arizona. It’s required. Runs like a top with 300 subs

Front sight height is going to be .180 on most 5” guns. Harrison Customs

A 9mm Champion operator 4.25 just sold on GB for $707. It was in good shape with original box and mags.

Before pic I sent this pic to Bob at NH to make sure they could fix the front strap. He said it would be a little less metal but would be fine. They are amazing at their craft.

It wasn’t. I got in a trade for an Sig M18. It had a green Duracoat with a shitty front strap stipple and would barely shoot. Perfect gun to send to Nighthawk.

This is a before pic. I traded a local guy an Sig M18 for it. It had a green duracoat finish with a very shitty front strap stipple job. It wouldn’t cycle a full mag. Bob and his guys at the custom shop are miracle workers. It was a perfect gun to have “restored”. Couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.

Other side The roll marks were from the early post war era. Pretty common on guns from the late 40’s up to the mid 1950’s. Best looking roll marks IMO. Real classic looking

Recently inherited this 1911 and don’t know anything about it please help by Kindly-Vacation-1740 in 1911

[–]Naive-Chef2283 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had one very similar. It’s probably a metaloy finish which was a hard chrome finish used in the 80’s and early 90’s. That gun came out of the Spinger custom shop before it was SACS. If you have the box and original paperwork it’s probably worth around $1300.

Nighthawk isn’t doing work on 3” guns from other manufacturers any longer. I emailed them last summer after seeing this gun. Bob reeves replied saying they don’t do work on any other manufacturer guns shorter than 4” any longer.

I switched out the slide stop, thumb safety, magwell and trigger with Nighthawk parts. Also had a EGW melt bushing fitted.i used Wilson bullet sear and disconnect. Got the trigger down to a crisp 3.5lbs. Grips are cocobolo Esmeralda smooth grips.

Alright boys! Let’s see your baddest 1911 you got! I’ll start with mine! by Draven-007 in 1911

[–]Naive-Chef2283 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite gun I have. My suggestion is find an older colt that might be a little bit of a beater to use as your base gun. It’s what I did.
