Another option is to get a Colt series 80 for about $1000, have a competent 1911 smith properly cut a radius and install a beavertail, install a skeleton hammer and trigger, ambi thumb safety, and mill the slide and install novaks.


Volkmann website says $1750. I may get the "stock" Colt and add what I want to it, I don't need a match barrel and all the bells and whistles. I just really like the stainless barrel and trigger.

That's just for the labor, doesn't include the host gun to work on. I waited 19 mo for my volkmann two years ago.
