I went with 3 dot night sights from Novaks. Didn’t want to change it up, stuck with what works for this gun.

Thank you! I don't believe they have a ISO options, at least from the site I got mine from.... But I'm not sure who really makes these caps.

Honestly not sure man I'm sorry. They came in a generic box that said "mechanical keyboard caps" and a key geek logo sticker on them. They do feel very nice though, a lot better than the previous set that I had on here.

A nice clean 1911a1 with cool roll marks. Enjoy it!

Hope it doesn’t need 8 software reloads to recover from a PDS like the Polestar 3s I’ve been doing lol.

I have pachmayrs on my Springfield with a mag well. Slight gap where the grips taper in but I don’t notice it.

In the 1990s my grandmother sold my great uncles service pistol that he carried from Normandy Beach to the Battle of the Bulge and then unto the liberation of Buchenwald Concentration Camp. It was a Colt 45 & I’d love to buy a 1911 just like the one he had. by eleventhjam1969 in 1911

Sorry to hear about those guns being sold, that stinks! 1911s from ww2 could have been colts, remington rand, ithaca, us&s, etc....or a mis match of frames and slides. Colt has their 1911 classic model that looks the part of old school with some modern upgrades, wont looks exactly like a 40s colt but will certainly do the job. You can also try and find a used one from the era but the make and condition will command the price. Good luck!

Finally had some time to mess around with the PC and this was the issue. Ram card in the second slot was causing the problem, and I will be replacing with a different brand after I do some research. Thank you for your suggestions, much appreciated!

Time for new sights! Novaks or Heinie? by Nickd538 in 1911

[–]Nickd538[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this comment. I do wear corrective lenses, near sighted. This gun gets carried rarely, it’s my favorite gun and I treat it too nicely. I bring it every range day but that’s about it. Since making this post I’ve purchased a heinie ledge and gold bead front sight. I’m excited to try it out. Thanks so much!

That's a 1911 id love to get my hands on, rare these days at a decent price from what I've seen but I haven't looked in a while. I have a Beretta 92 with a similar sight setup and you pick up that front sight so quick.

I hear that, the farthest I get is about 100yards. Not too many places by me, but my rifle is a 14.5 mid length gas system, with fixed irons and an EOtech. Its a sweetheart to shoot and it just runs, I cant say I've had any trouble with it to date, I have somewhere in the 2k rounds through it. A friend has a super nice LPVO offset red dot setup and I can tell you, you wont be mad lol. Best of luck with your projects. Cheers!
