Default A few pics of my build

I noticed the humidity of Missouri spring season was trying to rust my bare parts even with oil on them....so I blew some paint over them until I can get back to working on it. I figured it was a nice time to throw a couple pics up of where I left off on it since you can see what it will look like black :-)

Thats not a buggered serration on the slide...I bumped some paint off when it was still soft lol

Thanks DB Here's whats in it so far:
1991-A1 Commander slide and barrel
Foster officer reciever
Walnut thin grips by Cap
Colt thumb and grip safeties and hammer strut
Ed Brown Hardcore extractor, hammer, and firing pin
Ed Brown Perfection sear and disco
Greider slide stop
EGW oversize firing pin stop and pin kit
Harrison Design medium trigger
All Wolff springs:23 mianspring and 18 recoil
have an Ed Brown perfection ejector, but may go with an EGW
the barrel-bushing, msh, mag release, and plug are just old junker parts...they will be replaced before its all sent off for a finish.

I'll do a complete build thread once Im finished; I have lots of pics

Do you plan on just painting it or going with a metal treatment when its all finished? Looks good so far.

Since it will be my primary carry 1911, Im thinking it will get a treatment for durability and corrosion resistance. I may give that Atranite a try. The barrel isnt stainless, but might have it hard-chromed just to break things up.

Atranite is one I haven't heard of. Guessing that it is a treatment?
