Hello,
In the autoloaders forum I asked about what i should do for a 1911. As this would likely be a carry gun I was thinking the only way to get exactly what I want would be to do it myself, or pay a heap of money.
However I was thinking, if i ever needed to use the firearm for defense, would I legally be looking at a real bad thing using a gun that i did work on myself (I feel i am qualified to work on a 1911, just not certified).
In other words would I been in for a world of problems having made a "super tricked out death pistol", or is this mostly a non issue as long as you don't take off safety features?
Any input would be greatly appreciated, as this thought bothers me more then a little... I love working on 1911's, but i don't want to do it if i could someday get in trouble for it.
