Some time ago I bought a Western Arms Kimber SIS Custom II that turned out to be a hackjob so after winning a Japanese auction for parts and using one of those sites that ships to you out of Japan I finally fixed it up. First time I had to do something like this and let me tell you, WA is not the easiest or the cheapest to work on but damn it looks good  B)

WA Rtype based Colt S70 the metal is made by the Japanese Edge great quality.

I got it second hand and it was in a so so condition.

I took the polishing compound and some clean pieces of cloth and this is the end result.

Prime WA Rtype based Kimber LAPD SWAT Custom II

 

I got this gun with missing parts and in non working condition.

I found the needed parts in my spares bin but the gun had a weird issue.

 

I sorted it and now works flawlessly!

What are the options for a 1911, I know Western Arms have done one, are there any kits to convert TM 1911A1’s to 1911 spec?

Prime have done a conversion kit for TM, look further back in this thread both me and another guy have posted pictures! they were around 1000 dollars and are probably sold out by now.

 

See page 223, there is my pictures!
