Well when you're right, you're right; your one pic really doesn't do it justice. Please try taking some more pics and posting them as it sounds like it's one nice customized R1.

Looks great.

Looks great! Never knew what a French cut exactly was. Interesting.

Very cool! I love my 1911 R1, but it's bone-stock. You have turned a quality-but-utilitarian 1911 into something truly awesome.

Should be professionally framed and mounted on a wall, with appropriate brass plaque, describing parts. Hit's pulchritudinous.
