Double Action 1911

Post by guitarguy »

Howdy folks, Im in a bit of a bind. I accidently got my hands on what I was told was an 80% single action frame but is in fact a 60% double action frame. Instead of causing issues I figured "heck, I dont have one, lets start building". And then I started searching. And searching. And searching. So far Ive found reviews and pictures, but not a single drawing, blueprint, schematic, even internals picture. If anyone here could be kind enough to help, I would be greatly appreciative.

you will want to explore the colt double eagle cira 1990-1997 which was based on i think the seacamp design

good luck on prints etc as the government had no had in the project. a look at the 1911 book by kappenfield may shed some light but it is questionable.

also gunpart corps schematic file it may be listed and shown there parts will not be easy to come by.
