    My STI Shadow 10mm
    It started out as a 40S&W I sent the barre out to be reamed for 10mm, purchased some 10mm Officers mags and now Officers 1911 in 10mm.


    What's that like to shoot?

    Very nice job on the bobtail! Debating about doing it to an ATI Commander.

    Here's a good looking Commander that wc145 posted on a 1911 forum:

    There's a good story behind it (and more photos): https://forums.1911forum.com/showthread.php?t=569233

    It's a great story, a tremendous effort by dad for a no doubt very worthy son.

    Beautiful gun and a great piece of photography.

    I love what they did to the muzzle crown and barrel bushing, that looks splendid.

    Juries out on the grips, somebody put a tremendous amount of effort into those. They look good and are already growing on me, but took a bit to warm up to them.

    How old is that photo?
    If AO has started blending all their front straps like that I might have to pick one up.

    I pick up this brand new Auto Ordance BkO 1911 up last March of 2016 . The grips on handgun not factor grips they where brown so replace them with set black ones came off my fathers old Springfield Armory 1911 witch I had no trouble putting on my new Auto Ordnance. You get black box witch you see with handgun one magazine all under $500.00 dollars. I bought this handgun at Budsgunshop.com witch they had at very reasonable price brand new. They done real nice job with this handgun compare my dad own stainless steel Springfield Armory 1911 Gi was surprise see how well compare to his handgun.

    I checked out the AO 1911s at the NRA Convention and yeah, they are just as nice as the picture shows.
    And Star7745 welcome to the place!
