It doesn't look like either Essex or Caspian offer aluminum-based 1911 frames. What are my choices for a frame source if I want to craft an alloy-framed Commander in 9mm?
I wonder when Essex stopped making Al frames? I build a couple in the early 90's. Not a great frame by any stretch but they were workable.........
I've seen (and bought) Combat Commanders in 9mm, but I've never seen a LW Commander in 9mm. I just presumed that they weren't out there.Or find a used Colt LW Commander in 9mm or .38 super and build from there.
