Be nice to find one of those still in the factory packaging:

That was enjoyable.
I can only imagine one of those QC inspectors looking at some of the "home custom" 1911s produced from the 90s forward and trying to figure out why somebody would do that.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.

Pretty Cool, Thanks for sharing.
Not entirely familiar with the "Du-Lite" finish, but apparently it's a type of black oxide finish. The ones in the video look quite nice.
Still around:

Not seeing it on a quick check of their site, but it sure seems like it was developed to finish M1 Garand stainless steel gas cylinders. Never knew it was used on M1911A1 pistols.
Beautiful. I wonder who was doing the test firing and how they were recruited or trained? <4” 7 shot groups at 15 yards isn’t a difficult standard for a full-sized SAO gun with a moderate amount of skill, but the general public struggles to keep 7 rounds on a target twice the size at half that distance, at least from what I can observe today. Before I saw the video, I assumed that they used a machine rest of some sort in the QC process. Maybe they did most of the time, and that bit in the video was for show.
