Not very fond of there price
And there customer service is crap.
I guess everyone has a right to be an a**. I just want to explore every option and price rang before I make a final choice.

I like Jim Toms sense of humor
And pretty sure he made shine
With popcorn one time.

I saw a couple of complete lowers (RIA and Remington) on gunbroker.
Search on "frame" in the 1911 parts area.

Try sarco they had rock island parts kits plus a pretty good selection of option parts. 9 mm, 40 and 45 barrels and slides keep coming in and out of stock. Check back often and call as not everything is on the web site.

Midway also has lots of parts for 1911. Between the two you should be able to build what you want.
