Okay - the other major thing I've decided on is to slap some good sights on this puppy... What I'd _really_ like are large, easy to see, sights, at least for the front - not little nubby things like the "normal" ones, but more like the big ramp on my Dan Wesson .357... Not "target" sights, per se, but more "easy to see."

Any recommendations?

The best adjustable sight for the 1911 is the BoMar, but that will require machining of the slide. LPA makes adjustable sights that do not require machining, but some sit up a bit high. As for a front sight, there are a bunch out there. I do not recommend Millet's dual crimp, since it requires drilling two holes in the slide and that means you will always have to use a Millet dual crimp front sight for as long as you keep that slide. Staked or dovetailed sights are a better option.
