That's cool. I haven't put this combo out there for sale but then I saw your ad. With the price of Colt Series 70 9mm 1911's these days, the buyer is pretty much getting the Mech Tech for almost nothing. That was the deal of the day! Just for you! LOL!! Good luck to you on your search.

I've got a one for a 9mm 1911, and a Series 70 Colt 9mm that I'd sell with it. $1500 for everything. I see you're in western Kentucky. I'm in eastern Missouri. So maybe close enough for you to actually see iy before buying. Shoot me a message on here or email me at [email protected].

Thank you!!

Dad and I stopped in to see Elmer at that house a couple times. The last time was right after he had the trophy room built out back. So it's been a while. While standing in that trophy room, dad asked for a load for his new Ruger No. 1 (3?) and Elmer took an old envelope and jotted a load from...

Don’t be the guy we post photos about in my Marlin 39A group showing how F’ed up the screw holes are and how they ruined the value of the rifle. Take it to a gunsmith! I’m a retired machinist and a gunsmith. I would do that indicated in on my mill, NOT in a drill press. I wish I could go...

Can anyone tell me why there's an offset in the ejector slot, and if that effects value?

We haven't learned why it's there and if it effects value. I'd like to know this.

Okay, I see that. I just pulled out my Super Blackhawk of the same era and see where the slot goes to the frame. Is there something special about the offset slot? Why did you ask the OP if his had that feature? From a machinist point of view, I can see where the slot to the frame would be...

Hey Chet, I’m not the OP but I appreciate your answering me because I also have a 44 Flattop of the same era and enjoy learning. Here’s my 44 and a photo of what I imagine you’re talking about. What exactly does the offset mean?

Excuse my ignorance but what is that, and do you have photos? Thanks, Bill

What powder(s)? Is the Round Nose, Flat Point (rnfp) lead? Copper?

This is a federal fraud case if a USPS money order was used. I'm usually on the FAL Files and there have been several posts where postal inspectors where asked to look into frauds paid by USPS money orders, and while some inspectors seem to poo-poo it away, some don't. It seemed that the more...

I haven't been following this but did anyone pay him with a USPS money order? That's a federal offense and postal inspectors will get involved.
