I have a NRM Series 80 stainless Government Model that I will probably be sending to Ted Yost. I don't have enough money to do everything I want at this point, but I do want to have the pistol dehorned, mag well beveled, the hammer bobbed, extended thumb safety, and the ejection port flared and lowered before it's to be hard chromed.
My question is: can I add Novak sights at a later date without having to worry about messing up the chrome job? I would also like to have the front sight dovetailed. As I am typing this I think I have answered my own question. Probably better to not have to mill through the chrome plating huh? Maybe I will just need to save a little longer and get everything done at once. I also plan on getting rid of that long trigger and getting a trigger job. At some point I would also like to add a Kart barrel and bushing, but I have a good smith locally that can do that at a later date.
I saw the Ted Yost Delta Elte pictures that were recently posted and really enjoyed them. I also like the feel of a 1911 in my hand better without the beavertail. I do tend to grip the pistol very high, and get the "hammer bight".
