Really unacceptable for a NIB $1,500 1911.
DWCS would do nothing.
But had it replaced with a Wilson Combat Tactical Bulletproof Safety - and problem solved
Color of the bead blasted brushed stainless is perfect as well.
Literally looks like it came on the gun from the factory.
Got to love how you can swap parts with 1911s.
And the quality of Wilson Combat continues to impress.
I'd still like to own a WC someday.
Got burned on a used one years ago and the +3K for a new one continues to be off putting.
Maybe someday ...
I’m with you Barth. A DW or STI is as much as I’ve ever spent. Been lucky I suppose as the one’s I’ve had were as good as can be to me. I too would like something like a Wilson, or some of the other equivalents, but just can’t see it unless sitting very flush on found or easy money. Maybe a great scratch off ticket? : )
