Thanks Bawanna I will try and see what photobucket is about. I do love my Remington. On Monday when I went to the firing range I fired both of the 1911's exactly the same way with exactly the same number and brand of ammo. Both were flawless. The DE performs just slightly better and to me the Remington gets the edge in looks. I do love stainless. The series 80 safety just makes the trigger a little heavier.

Remember to block your serial numbers, I forget that all the time, maybe not a big thing but once something goes on the internet it lives the forever. Just one less thing ya know.

Fire up the photobucket and post them pics. I'm not real good at it but if I can do it you can do it for sure.

Thanks Tinman. Wrote those instructions down. That should help.

Great reminder on the serial numbers. Not sure how anyone would use them but great to know.

We've had guys wander through the pawn shop and write down serial numbers, then report the tool or item stolen. Biggest issue in a theft sometimes is proving you owned it in the first place.

Too bad we can't innoculate honesty along with all the other stuff. Be bad for politicians and lawyers but worth it.

Congrats on the new DE1911!

I like tinypic.com for posting photos as you don't need to set up an account to use it.

It's been my experience, that a properly tuned Series 80 1911's trigger can be just as good as those on non Series 80 guns. My R1S had a slight burr in the lever slot at the top of the frame; a little file work there really smoothed the trigger pull on it.

That sure is pretty. Just love the classic lines I guess.

The two Remingtons I've fondled, both blued versions had excellent triggers in them. Very nice indeed.

I surely haven't wrote off the Remington because of the 80 series trigger, that's for sure. It's on the someday list.

Had to try the tinypic.com. Seems I tried it before and couldn't figure it out. Looks simple enough this time, see if it works.
