Sharpshooter
Well, I picked up a new toy today. I work at a shop out in Colorado and have the perk of getting first dibs on any used guns that come in. That finally came to my benefit within the last couple weeks.
We had a gentleman bring in a bunch of 1911s - a pair of Ed Browns, a custom Colt done by Heirloom Precision (VERY VERY nice shop down there in AZ) and this nice STI 1911. It is an STI slide with Ed Brown/Wilson internals, and a Foster frame. Apparently Foster builds their frames off of STI frames, so it's more or less an STI gun. It was a used gun, but unfired. Novak, fully adjustable sights with red rear fiber optic and green front fiber optic sights. Integral, flared magwell (part of the frame). Stippled front strap and some REALLY fugly carbon fiber grips, which are soon to be replaced by a set of VZ grips. If anyone is interested in the CF grips, please PM me, I'd be happy to sell and ship them to you. Very smooth, 2.5# trigger. Full length guide rod, bull barrel, which results in virtually ZERO recoil. Gun shoots lights out as one can imagine.
A gun like this would cost well over $2000 to get it built. I didn't pay that much
