Ok, I may have the chance to get my hands on the above listed 1911. It doesn't have a lightweight frame, but it looks like the standard officers model 1911 tagged from RIA on the slide, and brought in by KBI most likely one of the Armscor imports.
Overall it doesn't look like a hardcore collectible firearm, more of a "oh well it got scratched while on the floor of my truck" daily carry gun. Might need some tuning, replaced springs, new barrel, etc.... but regardless of that, what sort of reputation do these have? Worth considering at all, or just "run away!"
Heck I may be able to just get a stripped out receiver and slide for dirt cheap...
