I'm on the down hill side of building guns now but one last 1911 in 38 super, have asked on a couple of forums but here goes here.

What lightweight frame, can't carry all steel any more, am leaning toward either a Commander frame and full size slide , or a Officer's frame and a commander slide.Will have ambi safeties, and the newer flat faced trigger,rest is up in the wind

Will be carried a hell of a lot, but shot little.

For those who will ask, used one for awhile in South America to great effect, and just want one more, tired of the SIG's and glocks

So whom would you rask with building the beast??

I'd check out Louder Than Words for the porno. They've got some nice builds over there and there is a smith that specializes in chort 1911's. One of our members here, HOPLOETHOS has had a few built by MARS. PM him and pick his brain. Greg

I have used, and would recommend both Dave Sams (http://www.samscustomgunworksusa.com/) and Richard Fletcher (http://www.fletchercustompistols.com/) (both here in VA). Good luck with your build...
