My new low dough 1911

[jtsgsxr6]

I picked up this Citadel yesterday (from armscor). Got it for a good price or at least I think so, $400 plus fees+tax. Already added a Pachmayr grip and some homegrown night sight style white sight dots onto the factory sights. All I did was is start a 5/64 bit to create the dot well, and dab some white nail polish in. Range time will come Sunday. Trigger already feels great on this puppy, short, smooth, light and crisp! Also put my order in for a custom cut barrel bushing from EGW, stock one is a hair on the loose side about 4 though slip fit at muzzle.

So....
Gun 399
Grips 32
Sights 4 dollar bottle of Nail polish and my 5 minutes of my time.
Bushing on order 37 to my door.

Total $472 not bad in these times, and she feels great in my hands let's hope she's a shooter.

looks nice. i was looking at a citadel before i got my springfield milspec. they were going up in price so looks like you got a good deal. i heard they are pretty decent quality.

Yeah, I ran home and did some googling to find out more before I bought, hope my experience is good like others.

Nice 1911. I just traded my RIA, but a 1911 is a must for a collection.

Watch out, 1911's tend to multiply.

It's good I've got a rubber on it!

That looks nice. I really need a 1911. I just love the way they shoot.
