This is very much a Govt A1 ''basic'' 1911. The
addition of a Chip McCormick trigger is the only
modification which can be easily reversed to bring
it back to original specification. Overall finish
is very fair and serial numbers all match. It dates
to around 1951, made in Argentina.
The worst aspect is the sights! The rear sight is
not very good as a simple ''V'' but the small front
side blade is awful! To change that would unfortunately
be relatively hard to reverse and so it has remained.
As most 1911's, a pleasure to shoot and a surprisingly
nice trigger following a small adjustment to angles,
prior to which it had a very slight ''snick'' feel
part ways through the pull. |
