I sent him a PM asking the same thing, no response.Do you know who built that, or is there a name or any initials on it (maybe under the slide release)?
I do not know who built and can see no markingsI sent him a PM asking the same thing, no response.
I'm gonna guess it was modified in the 80's. The grip safety looks like a Safari Arms, or a King Gun works, which were the only commercial ones around back then. These had to be hand fitted because there were no jigs for them as there are now. Guys like Pachmeyr, Swenson, Hogue etc. made their own.
The rear sight looks like a Millet, and the front sight is also a Millet that was staked on with dual tangs.
All three companies are out of business
Here's some pics of a Commander I modified back in the early 80s using whats looks like that same grip safety

The ambi thumb safety looks like a Swendson to me.
Is it still available?Here is my Colt Commander 1911 .45 ACP.
Beautiful blued steel with two Clark magazines. If you know your pistols, you either know you want/need this...or will ask me something I cannot answer.
