Ok guys (and gals!),
A few years ago I purchased a mkII government target.
It has an aftermarket trigger (I now believe to be volquartsen), but other than that it appeared to be stock.
Here it the embarrassing part, when I got it home, I pressed the mag release on the side of the frame (do t get ahead of me yet!). That's when I realized that I had been duped, I had a mkiii frame with a GT barrel. Feeling ashamed, I deemed it "the bastard" and put it in the safe. Months later. Was showing it to a friend and he immediately noticed that the mag release was a 1911 release, not 1911 style, a actual 1911 component. Further examination concludes that it is a mkII frame with many aftermarket Parts and a very nicely installed 1911 mag release that's functions flawlessly.
My question is, who could have done this? I posted this on another forum but got no response. I contacted Clark custom, nothing. Emailed volquartsen, no reply.
Has anyone else ever seen this?
I will post pics if I can figure out how!
