there have been a couple episodes on American Rifleman the last two weeks about the 1911 and its history. You might enjoy watching them if you can find them. Congrats on the pistol - everyone should have at least one.
Hello I'm .... and I am a 1911 addict. I started out with Colts then added Springfield,LB, Wilson, C&S, Kandros Custom and several WWI and WWII to the pack. I keep on trying to stop but just cann't. It's a great addiction.
Is that a Series 70 in stainless? I have a Series 70 Gov't in satin nickel, but I didn't know they were made in stainless. Or is it a "new" Series 70? Or am I totally off the mark?
I'm no metallurgist, but my understanding is that the stainless guns of the '70s had a tendency to gall, but that today's stainless steel is far superior. Comments, anyone?
