Default ODI 1911 question

A guy offered to sell me his ODI 1911, double action pistol for $300.
Condition is good.

Anyone know if this is a good deal, good pistol?

Thanks in advance

Is it a Seecamp conversion or an ODI build?

If it's a shooter then the 300$ is good.

(I just hate to see a pivot trigger on a 1911, forgive them JMB.)

Just what it sounds like. The trigger pivots on a pin in the frame as opposed to a true 1911 that slides horizontally and does not "swing" or pivot on any pin.
