The last 1911 I built.

Started as a late 70s Commander, added a Schuemann barrel and bushing...Wil Schuemann taught me everything about fitting a barrel.

Custom fire control, with drop-in BTGS, didn't want to cut the alloy frame. Night sight on the front, retro rear to complete the sights.
Extended mag release, standard thumb safety, and arched MSH because its fits my paws better.

Carried this for years, on and off duty.

Doesn't look like much, but it'll put the rounds where they need to go...every time....wicked accurate.

As Cooper would say...everything ya need, nothing you don't.

Going through the safe and found an early production Detonics Combat Master 45

This one was tuned by my 1911 mentor Richard Neimer who worked for Detonics.

Paired with our 45 ACP both TMJ and JHP loads would make someone a solid compact carry rig...complete with original Detonics patch.
