The trigger is a bit north of five pounds. It has a glitch right after initial take up. Break itself is pretty good and overtravel is set about right.

Lots of retro possibilities, that's for sure.

Here's a good read for those interested in 1911 Smith history:

I could pull the EPS off and replace it with the EPS Carry. The Carry and X Compact are probably pretty close in overall size.

Ideally I'd prefer some type of adapter plate and then a larger...

Brass is kissing the bottom edge of the optic as it ejects. I don't see any damage to the glass. Yet.

Eighty-three pieces of brass picked up. I may have missed one or two when I was policing up the area. Let's round down and call it 80 for today.

Eleven rounds of 200 grain Berry's HHP with a fairly stiff charge of CFE Pistol from about 20 paces. The group is right at 3 inches. Chip mag for size reference.

First several shots. Three rounds at 10 paces. A 200 grain LSWC loaded with Trail Boss. The square is 1.5" across.

The slide has no exposed spring or plunger with the cover plate off. I'd half expected to have the spring come out with the plate removed.

A down side of the external extractor is that there is...

I dry fit an EPS Carry as well. It also had a slight gap underneath. The Carry fits the width of the slide better, but I ended up using the EPS with its slightly bigger window.

I got an EPS mounted. Being that the slide has ZEV style posts, I had to find different screws. The ones I could find (M3, I think they are) are a little short. The next length the shop had bottomed...

Here are a couple of generic photos. I'll take more as time allows. I have some errands to run today and then am out of town a few days after. I don't know when I'll be able to shoot this thing.

Personally I'd get this one before buying the...

So loaded firearms aren't supposed to go off when the trigger is pulled?

I assume this officer had been doing this previously with whatever pistol the department had before.

My MAC is back from customer service. All they did was replace the slide stop. I'd have done that had they just sent me the part.

Surely you've received the pistol by now?
