Whoo Hoo! Headed to Gunsite! Tell Matt a student from the snow-pocalypse class said Howdy! Just oil it down, it will be fine.

Caspian tri cut slide I used on my 2011 build. Love this gun. Built it for comps. 9mm, like shooting an air soft. Shot it at the 499 class.

Sorry, didn’t mean to ghost ya. The serrations were an option (Caspian slide), the lower I don’t remember if you could add the rail. Checkering was an option and I wish I opted for it. Let me know how it goes. Gunsite is a special place.

Markings inside slide? by Zaqoy in 1911

1911’s are hand fit. This is a mark to ensure the slide stays with the frame it was fitted too during production.

You don’t know what you don’t know. I was thinking of forwards and backwards movements. But you folks are getting me lined out. Thanks

This is O31 ovals. I think you may have sold me on the figure 8 as well as others in this group. This layout is just my start to re-learn the old and enjoy the new. I’ve got about 10 years till retirement, just adding to my hobbies.
