1911's Pics Thread

I would rather get a nice example of an early commercial pistol. Say, a first shipment Canadian contract. Would anybody here have one they would part with?

But a 1903 would be nice too. Don't know much about them. Prohib or restricted? Can't have the little things, I applied for my license after they realized people couldn't be trusted.

I'm in the opposite boat, I have two first shipment Colts but none of the other ones you have.

The 1903 Pocket Hammer is restricted only, 5 inches, so us lesser class types can have them.

Found another Norinco over the EE, comes with two pair of grip and the gun is really nice and smooth. Pic was taken with my NP-29

Sorry deadman, i'm pretty attached to them right now.

That's too bad, I saw your pics a while ago and now I'm attached to those pistols too!

Just in today, the wife's brand new GSG with pink pearlite grips. Can't wait to try this one at the range.

My Taurus PT1911. Also my first gun.
polished all controls + chamber part of the barrel myself. Planning on installing a S&A arched mainspring housing/magwell + maybe get some white pearl grips for when i feel pulp fiction-ish.

Beautiful piece.

Got lucky on EE one day..........

with my other SA 1911s

I saw that ad a little too late, I like that non-railed Springfield. I changed my mind, you can't have the Commander!

You don't want that copy of 1911 with FCS. It will look odd with your vintage 1911 collection.

The old pics of my Remington Rand just weren't cutting it, here's some more du-lite for the thread! The felt is not ideal, but the red background seems to work best, gonna try to find a nice tone of bristol board next time I feel like taking some pictures.

A new member to the USGI family will hopefully be here soon

Beautiful...

Matte Black Poster boards work nicely, but even better is the thicker black photo board style. A little more expensive, but a way nicer background for a beauty like that.
