    Very, very neat. You just don't see them much, specially here in Canadaicon. You can see why they usually are shy parts, they would be pilfered empty and the small stuff sold at premium as new.

    Nice, finally found mine after the move. It's a WW1 issue that was refurbished for WW2, painted over with steel rods.

    Congratulations, where I live I've never seen anything like that!
    Thanks for sharing.
    I always tell my collector mates to put originality at the top of their priority list, originality isn't something that can be restored. I've never seen a 1911 I didn't like.

    You just don't get to see them around here. The lack of collectors actually ready to pay for them is scarce so they all were broken down and the ORIGINAL new parts were sold at premium...
