Are you a real 1911 builder, as in Colt? Because I was a gunsmith for many years, and competed regionally back in the day. Been twenty-five years ago, now. This was back at the end of the 45 custom days, and built plenty of competition rigs in 45. How about you?
"Back in the day"... seems like both of us are a bit back in the day. I remember the early days... I grew up in SoCal, so had a bit of involvement in the early days of IPSC. Not going back as far as Cooper and the Bear Valley shoots, but the early 70s when I was still in high school and we had a shooting club. Ha ha ha... a high school shooting club, in California no less. Not likely today huh?
Are you still involved at all with custom work, or like me and just tinker now and again?
