Is the next generation to carry the bevel all the way to the top of the slide?

What is 45 NM (New Mexico)?

 

[oldironsights]

WoW!
Very professional!
I like it.
How many hours were required to complete this beauty?

National Match

 

[Armored farmer]

Yea!
that's a good lookin' 1911.

 

[Walkalong]

Amazing work, as usual.

 

[Girodin]

Nice! Any thoughts on using a norc for a custom build.

 

[bainter1212]

Once again, a thing of beauty.

 

[horsemen61]

Thats what i call beautiful . Really really nice !

 

[el Godfather]

Very nice.

Do you do it professionally or just for yourself?

 

[mdThanatos]

He does it professionally. As always very nice work.

 

[huntershooter]

Very nice machine work, not my "cup of tea" however.

 

[JRWhit]

STOP IT!!


Your gonna make me buy another 1911!!

I'm not generally a fan of that style of stippling , but wow does it go well on that one.

 

[bannockburn]

Very, very well done, as usual! Extremely business-like.

 

[5-SHOTS]

It looks very different from an original Norinco now. Different in the good meaning of the word...

 

[Lucky Derby]

Very nice.

 

[Willie Sutton]

All that time in a milling machine and he couldn't take a moment with an end mill to knock off the "Made in China" marking on the frame? It'll be a cold day in hell before any .45 I carry has that written on it.

Otherwise, nice work. Use one of the Phillipino 1911's and you would have something. The craftsmanship looks good.

I like it a lot. Lots of detail going on here as well. I am really a fan of the spur hammer too.

Extremely business-like.

Exactly what I was thinking. Somehow this gun seems to exude beauty and quality but none of it is frilly. The beauty comes from the quality of the work. Really impressive.

What HE ^^^ said!! Gorgeous.

I had a Norinco done by George Stringer, who participated here many years ago. Nice gun. None of the external changes shown above, but a lot of tuning and refining, internally.

 

[mgmorden]

Very nice. I particularly like the fish-scale on the slide-top, and front and backstraps. Sights are good and functional too. The recoil spring plug and bushing look great too.

I don't personally care for the grips (I just like checkered wood on a 1911) but still overall a good looking piece without getting gaudy.

 

[BSA1]

WOW!

What is the finish?

 

[1KPerDay]

Gorgeous! Only thing I don't like are the grips.
