This is my Phillipine made Metro Arms American Classic II 1911.I replaced the internal fire control parts with Wilson and Cylinder and Slide.I deburred the whole thing,stippled the front strap and blended the beavertail properly.I installed a thick match barrel bushing by Fusion and had it Parkerized.I finished it off with Alumagrips and socket head grip screws.These pistols are very well made and tightly fitted.I ran several hundred assorted rounds through it with no failures of any kind before or after upgrades.I plan on having some form of semi-gloss coating done and install some Heinie Ledge type sights.
