Just picked it up last night I've wanted one forever. I got a great deal I didnt want anything too fancy just something I could tinker with. I'm pretty new to 1911's always been a glock person. Not gunna lie I'm not even fully aware on how it comes apart and where to oil this thing. So needless to say I will be doing a lot of reading lol. And it will be getting new sights soon just looking for someone to dovetail the front. Heres a pic.

| Thanks guys. And I know its killing me that I can't shoot it. What are some decent upgrades and some good places to buy from. I want to do sights soon. Maybe a beavertail and was thinking a full length guide rod if its something I could benefit from, and lots and lots of ammo lol. |

shoot first decide on so called upgrades later- full length guide rods are useless for one. not everyone gets hammer bite so a beavertail (which requires replacing the hammer too) may not be needed.
I prefer higher profile sights but that is about it. most all 1911 parts require fitting - this isn't the AR you can upgrade on your kitchen table. |
