I plan on building a 1911. This will be my first foray into 1911 territory except a brief stint with a sig 45 compact carry, and p938 and 238 which are sort of mini 1911s.
Now, assume I have the means to make a flawless aluminum receiver. (I do.) I plan on building a 45acp first and then an alternate caliber. I am debating 9mm or 10mm for that. (10mm adds a caliber for me, which I am not thrilled with.) 9mm I have guns I like in already.
Any tips? Any really good ideas? I am thinking cerakoted Olive drab or highland green with wood handles for the .45 as it is tastefully unusual.
