Anything beyond that is just dicking around with an already perfected gun ... with the possible exception of installing improved sights.

Disagree

A well tuned custom 1911 is a wonderful thing.

Better trigger

Better ergonomics

Better accuracy

Tuned to feed SWC and JHP rounds

I bet the sights on my LCP II are more usable.

Single action pistols are only half as good as double action pistols.

Fact.

Have some of you guys really never seen GI/older style sights before?

Not saying they are good, but people are acting like the OP made them or something.

A perfect 1911 has 10rd Wilson Combat Mags

Wish Surefire would make an updated 310.

The same exterior but with modern internal tech.

Such a classic 1911 light and just fits the design.

OP's 1911 is a Norinco innit?

I'll grant that the frame and slide MAY be a good basis for a custom build.

For Open and Limited (now Limited Optics as well), 2011’s dominate.

I think the DWX has what it takes to make inroads as well but the aftermarket is t there to make it more than a marginal player at the moment.

The only real competition is the CZ TSO/2 or CzechMate and honestly, they kinda blow.

Production/CO is dominated by CZ and Tanfo.

There were bubba / tapco fucked mausers, SKS and Mini 14's galore in the 90s to early 2000s...

In all that time, I don't remember ever seeing anything I would label a bubba / Taco fucked 1911... Until today.

Behold, the Bubba 11.

You can take a piece of Weaver rail and drill and tap the dust cover to make your own rail. Remington 700 2 piece works.Easy peasy.
