Hello all,
Here goes my first post on these forums. I've seen a lot of threads discussing the 1911 here and I've read them all. One question I have though that I haven't really found much discussion on is if anyone knows a manufacturer who makes a reproduction of the 1911 pre-A1 design?
This would be one with a flat main spring housing, a shorter strrup, and no indentation along the sides of the trigger. I've attached a comparison to show what I'm trying to find new.
The most important items to me are located on the A1 at items 4, 6, and 7. I've handled a friend's vintage Colt 1911 and I like it much more than the A1 which I see everywhere.
