There's also a specific type of blued steel that was on a 1918

I would definately seek out a capable gun finisher.

The gun shop I deal with is Sierra Arms in Modesto. Peter (owner) is actucally very knowledgable about 1911s. And this is the type of thing he would totally geek out on. It would be worth giving the shop a call (but you definately want to talk to Peter specifically) and tell him what you have and ask him the best course of action would be.

If that were my gun... I would 100%, absolutely, positively, take it down to Peter and start there.

 

Who was with me avoiding the I80 wreck between Dixon and Davis today?

 

That's @tyfoon11 booty, I'd recognize it anywhere.

 

Lol!!!

 

My ninja!!!

 

Also.....

Bye felicia

 

1818? Must be a typo, because I'm confident you know the Model of 1911 was first tested around 1909.

 

Yeah I’m having issues with my rear leaking too.

Lol, that’s a good one.

 

We need a brewery crawl. Start someplace and end someplace else. Would be kinda cool.

 

You want one of the best?

I've sent my old Python, as well as several CZ's and even one of my Nighthawks to them.

You'll wait awhile, but it'll be worth it.

Don't have pics on me and my guns are locked away in storage but I stole these pics from my own post from another forum -





Last firearm I got refinished as I've left all the rest in stock form. Went to Cajun Gunworks for a complete build but not before getting it hard chrome by Fords.

 

Downtown Sac would work great for that. Last time I went to a conference there I did a little craft brew walk. Went to at least a few breweries and a bunch of places with great selection.

 

Can do!

 

Also 4Wheel parts is doing their buy 3 get one free deal on pro comp wheels and tires.

40”s for about $300/ea

 

I hate when that happens
...which is every morning

 

Can I put 40’s on stock suspension if I buy 3 and get one free

 

Wonder if they void that deal on Pro Comp beadlocks...


Wondering for a friend.

 

When the view doesn’t suck.

 

They checked my serial number (which they had on file) and found out that mine was in the batch of bad seals. ARB is apparently making it pretty difficult for the shops to get approval and paid, but they're doing it (like 3 months later).
I've got no complaints about WFO, and they're pretty close to me, so that's a plus.
