Ok heres the deal, i just won a bid on a USMC issued M1911. This thing is one fine peice, it saw action in WW2 and alot of other places. once i get it i'll be able to take better pictures for modeling and skinning... i really hope someone will do this for me.

the way the finish has worn (kind of splotchy) due to the cleaning techniques of the period in which the weapon saw service (using a copper wire bore brush to clean off the caked on carbon ) may make it look like a peice of ****, but mechanically it is perfect. i might have it refinished later.
