    Congrats on not reloading in higher volumes!

    That isn't nearly cluttered enough to be a reloading bench

    I have a 6-position non-automatic Lyman out in the shop. In my man cave I clamp a LEE single O press, to my desk (Press bolted to a board). It predates yours. Got it at a gun show for $25. Love it! The buckle is damaged, but works with a bolt and two washers squeezing it solid. Been considering buying the new steel halves and handle clamp. Supposed to be interchangeable.
    There are two kinds of guns. Those I have acquired, and those I hope to.

    I've wanted another factory built gun. I trust mine and use quality parts but there are some things I don't do. Staking the castle nut, pinning the gas block, testing multiple parts to find what works best together. I have a Colt and everything else are my builds. I've looked at the bigger names but I kept hearing a lot of good thing about Centurion Arms. As I perusing GB, I found this today. It's the same price as the factory charges and given the shortage which I suspect will just keep increasing until the election, I pulled the trigger. MrGunsNGear had a nice review and his example (same as this one) shot light out.

    After almost two years, the CMP came through...

    Re-arsenaled in Anniston in October '76. Ithaca slide, Remington Rand frame, and Flannery barrel (which could be appropriate for either the Ithaca or RR from '44-45).
    Reparking has taken its toll on the frame markings but the slide rollmark looks pretty good. Haven't detail stripped it yet, but it looks like all GI parts except possibly the recoil spring plug (the color is right, but it's serrated, not checkered) and the "Made in Italy" mag.

    Gave it some quick oil and function checked it--no problems. Trigger is "good military"--breaks around 5 3/4 lbs after noticeable creep, but consistent and not gritty.

    Not my first GI 1911, but the first one with a "certificate of authenticity." (Oh, and it doesn't rattle nearly as much as the one I was issued in the 80's!)
