A recent (and current) posting is about the
movie "Cobra" 1911, a tricked up Gold Cup.
But two more interesting 1911s, I think, were
in "Thief" with James Caan and the TV
series "Nash Bridges" with Don Johnson.
The 1911 in "Thief was apparently a Gold Cup
by Jim Hoag with a 6-inch slide with beaver
tail. Pretty eye catching in the film
In "Nash Bridges" Jim Zubiena, who worked
with Johnson on "Miami Vice," produced
a compensated. .38 Super with Gold Cup
slide on a chromed Springfield frame.
Zubiena, by the way, was feaured in "Miami
Vice" as an assassin who kills a young cop
because the officer is distracted for a very
brief moment. In that moment Zubiena
draws from an appendix position a 1911
and delivers Mozambique kill shots. That
film clip became part of a training video for
police recruits.
