![]() I enjoyed meeting you, along with several other fine folks that hang their hats here, in Volusia last November. As far as getting a "budget" 1911 to start with; I recommend against that, and suggest getting a Colt (best bang for the buck in their price range). As long as you're swapping out/fitting parts (Rule #1 of working on 1911's; always "work" on the cheapest part); you won't damage the pistol itself beyond resurrection. Otherwise, regardless of how much you spend on quality parts; it'll always just be a cheap pistol. Start with a good quality one to begin with. I'd be pleased to have you look over my small collection of 1911's, and loan you one to shoot until you decide what you'd like to purchase. I have them in three, 3 1/2, four, 4 1/4, and five inch sizes; either lightweight, or all steel. (Can't loan you a guitar though; I have less of them than I do 1911's. ![]() Happy New Year to you and yours!

Hello
![]() Welcome. Nice to meet you. You will find that a 1911 is like a pair of rabbits. Almost behind your back they will follow you home, way beyond reason growing your collection. Prayers that 2015 will find you and your wife in good health and happy. Enjoy the action here. All the best. Dennis

I am insensitive...outside of COTEP. Had no idea your wife had health problems. You'll find we tend to pray for members and their families. Hope the Good Lord sees her through healthy and happy
