Besides military 1911's, I have others that are of much later vintage.
I ordered this Ed Brown on Jan 6, 2011 and received it July 17. Six month wait but I think a nice looker. I asked for a 7 in the serial number, born May 7th. So what do I get but 57, month and day, I thought that was pretty cool.
Also a picture of my current Brown family. Expecting twins around Christmas.
