So I want to build a 1911...

[l!fealert]

So I grabbed a gripless, unfired Norinco 1911 commander for a steal.

Time for the fun.

any reason its a 'good thing' they're not?

Frauds. Lack of communication after accepting the payment. RCMP involved in couple of cases. Terrible BBB ratings if I can remember correctly. They were here for quite a long time.

I would suggest that buying JK's book(s) is the first purchase in a 1911 build. Not cheap but the best roadmap that you can buy for this journey.

JK's books are good, but there are some mistakes and inaccuracies in them, do a google search about the books before you buy them.

Gunner retired, he no longer works on guns, unless you known him for over 25 years. Good luck on your build, you'll need it
