I feel like I hit the lottery.

OH, its got Trijicon sights on it too. I thought these came with the Heinie Ledge sights. I wonder if this was an option of some kind.

Can't wait to take it to the range and try it out.
Let us know how it goes with your New Valor! They're a Great 1911!
No one else has done it, so here goes:

Default Happy Birthday!

Those are Heinie Ledge sights! Beautiful Valor too! Must be a 2010 or later. The serial will tell the date.
Over 50 and those 1911's BREED!
