in considering that I can purchase a Caspian receiver/slide, Schuemann barrel, and misc components from other excellent vendors, add few books and slight help from a local gunsmith, and assemble a HighPerforming 1911 ? The intent is to build one for target/casual shooting with basic fixed sights and 'standard' appearance - except for the Quality.
My experience with metalworking is not strong, but my 'credentials' are that I built a near perfect 'pre-piano' keyboard instrument (Clavichord) from a kit that took hundreds of hours and over a year to construct.
I have very good handtool skills, can read and understand directions, can improvise, have lots of time, have patience and enjoy tedious tasks...
Please be honest - if the tuning of a fine handgun is truly too difficult, I will rely on the expertise of DaneBurns to perform the task on my behalf.
Thanks
