    guns I built/customized

    here's my 1911. Started with a plain jane RI Commander. I recrowned it, tweaked the sights and trigger, fit the beavertail, added the extended slide stop, smoothed out the feed ramp, checkered the grips, stripped of the parkerizing, and hot blued it. All in all I think it turned out very nice...
