I've always been a Browning Hi Power fanatic until Oct. 4th. I went to the local gun store and reluctantly looked at another 1911 not understanding the appeal to these darn things. The super wide trigger face on the GOLD CUP TROPHY and it's generally handsome / presitgous appeal sold me instantly. I shot a box through it and WOW!! it's a REAL honey! I hate to say it, but it may even be as nice as my Browning Hi Power... but to the questions...
It had a few weaknesses in my eyes that I'd like to adress and ask for advice about here.
I'm considering going with a GUNSITE low mount safety but will it click off at the wrong times from body movent due to popular holster designs catering to the popular high safety designs?
Secondly, the BOMAR sights are nice but if I want to get tritium inserts like, bar-dot-bar, are there replacement blades?
Third, I feel kinda dumb asking this but... I want to go to an ED BROWN memory groove grip safety. Will that mean frame modifcation?
Lastly, I'd like to get a trigger job on it. The trigger is fine now but I'd like the glass rod breaking feel. How much does that normally cost and what parts need replacing and can you recomend brands for those parts.
Thanks for your time and attention to what I'm sure are FAQ's by now.
Sincerely
Tim Warren
