    This pistol holds a tremendous amount of meaning for me. I built this one from scratch, but more importantly, this is the first firearm I built after my accident, which left me disabled & partially paralyzed. The Lord used this in my life while struggling in darkness & learning to live again.

    I used all high end internals. Almost every part: hammer, trigger, sear, mainspring housing etc.,& even down to the pins, I used Nighthawk Custom parts. Figured if their parts are good enough for $3500+ 1911’s, they’d be ok for mine I guess, LOL! I built this specifically to handle 450SMC/45Super. 185jhp’s @ 1350fps in a semi auto will wake you up!

    Appreciate it mrk1500. Here’s another pic.. thought I had individual pics, but lost them. This is that one I posted above in the middle, however, it’s joined by the 1911 on top which is a reproduction of the Colt Combat Elite.(one of my all time favorites!) It has a factory Colt Combat Elite Slide & barrel. This was the first 1911 I built and gifted to my father forFather’s Day 2010. But I had built this one with BOTH of my hands, as it was years before my accident & being paralyzed in my left arm/hand. My younger sister now owns it, inherited after our dad passed. The bottom specimen is my son’s Ed Brown, the first 1911 he bought a few years ago. This pic was taken with all three after I had just replaced the Trigger, Hammer, Sear, & Slide Stop in & did a full trigger job on my sons Ed Brown. (Came out reeeal nice. Ed Brown does a fantastic job, stock… I just do it better)

    Very nice! I have a Rock Island 10mm that I did a bit of work on and it's a great shooter out to 75 yards shooting from a rest.

    Thank you brother. Oh yeah. Like 450Smc, 10mm is another fun round. Either one will drive a 180-185gr bullet at 1300-1350fps and produce over 700ft.lbs.
