Brownells have been around a long time and are really an excellent source. I always assume that everyone has heard of them. Their catalogs are excellent.

Brownells is good. But try not to place big orders. They've always forgot to add something in my order or added something similar, but not the right part when I've made big orders.

after all parts are fitted, send the gun to get Ion bond finish.
but that is just me...
But I will most likely go and buy a Springfield MC Operator and go from there..
Sounds like an awesome build chen, how many 1911's do you own at this point?
Sadly, I have only one right now, mostly going to buy a Springfield MC operator by the end of this year and have a lot of work being done on it. this will be my loight rail gun...
and possibily a SW commnader with that Scandian frame as my CCW gun further down the line.
All that with Kart Barrel gunsmith fit.
Have picked up a tired and used Ruger 10/22 as a learning project - tried to keep it as factory looking as possible. Here are the results:
Factory stock - cut, bedded and refinished. Barrel is free floated 3" from the receiver
XS rear ghost ring and front post sights
Power Custom extended bolt handle
Volquartsen Automatic Bolt Release
Power Custom Shim Kit
Clark Custom Deluxe Drop-In Trigger Kit (trigger, hammer, sear).
Tactical Solutions extended magazine release.
Truck bed liner textured buttstock.
Work left to be done: parkerize steel parts, paint all metal in "park gray" color. Fix a crack on a stock and apply truck bedding coat on the handled parts.
Overall, very happy with the project - I rapid fired magazine into a 4x8" orange "vitals" square of a target at 30 yards with ghost ring sights. The extended magazine release makes magazine changes a matter of opening the palm of the shooting hand (or giving it a middle finger).
Looks really good.
That looks nice Stuka, well done.
It is funny, but living next door to Russia, I am forced t buy AK spares for my project in the USA
