It wasn't a new 1911, but it was new to me. Got this from Pinkhamr this year. Very nice. Ive even been told by a few 1911 fans that say the trigger on it has had some real nice work done to it.

Didn't have enough funds this year to purchase one. I really wanted too. If I ever sold my '69 Beetle, I might have taken some of that money there to buy one.

Traded my glock 21 for a very fine Detonics combat master in .45. Love that gun now.

Its just the entry level Custom II with some nice trigger work done to it. It wasnt that much really. Pinkhamr gave me a great deal.
