I'm having a heck of a time finding gun molds for the Sig 1911's, I'm about to put in a custom order at Duncans, but that requires that I buy 6 freakin molds. I'll sell them for my cost just to offset the expense. Please let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,

Clay

Good point camano ridge! Definitely C&L if they'll do it. I have a Springfield EMP dummy from them (bought it second hand) and it's not locked. I"ve yet to make anything with it as I haven't modified it yet.

Talon, are you buying ONLY six, or is that simply the minimum? Would you be able to get more in the same order if there's enough interest?

If you were getting them from any other source I'd be interested. I broke the thumb safety on a Rings 1911 govt model and ordered an in stock version from Duncan's. I paid the extra $5 for a sight rail. What I got was...

- sight rail taller at ejection port / inconsistent height

- right side dustcover completely square

- trigger guard very thick

- can you spot the very first thing I noticed when I looked at it?!

- thumb safety looked like an afterthought, although was very beefy

- Absolutely unacceptable. Sight rail was crooked and just plain sloppy.

- slide flats were not the same dimensions on both sides. Look at the base of the sight snd how uneven the sides of the slide are.

To be fair, Luke was understanding and provided me a full refund ( except the cost to ship this thing back to him). He did tell me they keep their molds within 1/64" tolerances. You be the judge on that.

I've since modified my blue guns to take steel safeties. Your mileage may vary.
