Description

The 1911 - tuned up and ready to rock! In The Custom 1911, author Bill Loeb shows how the 1911's mission has changed drastically over the years. Originally a military sidearm, the 1911 is now a favorite among law enforcement special operation units, military and competitors, as well as those interested in self-defense. * The latest 1911s from semi- and full-custom makers * Inside look at the custom 1911s of today's top shooters and hunters * What you need to know before buying a custom 1911 * How to build a custom 1911 for any purpose While the basic design has changed very little, some brilliant people have advanced John Browning's classic 1911 and brought it into a new century. The Custom 1911 offers some amazing behind-the-scenes insight about the makers of Nighthawk, Kimber and Wilson Combat, to name a few. Great shooters like Julie Golob, Bruce Piatt and Chip McCormick shared their personal stories. Ted Nugent and Razor Dobbs also make appearances as 1911 hunters. These 1911 stars also shared their practical advice, which Bill shares with the reader. Bill Loeb's writing style is concise, fresh and entertaining.
