As I approach retirement age I figured I would need some projects to fill some of my time so after carrying wheel guns and Glocks I purchased my first 1911 this weekend. I got one hell of a deal on a new S&W LTW Commander, and now have a few questions that I'm confidant you gentelmen can help me out with.
1. I am digitally challenged(stubby fingers) and would like to purchase and install a short trigger....what make / brand would you recomend. I did order a cat. from Brownells,Wilson,CMC etc. I am capable of changing out the trigger but would like to know how much fitting is involved. Note...I don't want or need to do a trigger job as trigger is not too bad out of the box and this will be a carry gun.
2. This pistol has a FLGR and I agree it's not necessary and would like to replace it with a mil spec spring guide and plug in SS and again any preferance as to make?
3. Tuner ya got me paranoid...pistol came with two ACT 8 round mags with metal followers but they dont have dimples! I would like to purchase some extra mags(7 rounders a la JMB) and would like your recomendation on what brand to buy.
4. I bought an AGI video and learned the bare basics of function and detail strip but would like to know of any books or videos that that might be of value.
Looking foward to your replies as I highly respect all you gentelmens opinions.
