| This is a must have in any pictures section.
Currently my Colt Delta Elite is off getting tuned up but hkssr20det was kind enough to send me a few pictures of it. It is only part way done though and will be getting some new parts like hammer, grip safety etc.

| Loving the delta Rom. What brand of hammer is that? Also how is the fitment, I'm thinking about getting a PDI oval or KM ring hammer.
WE 1911
TM 1911 (soon to be PGC delta elite)

| | nice 1911's. how does that WE 1911 perform? I heard they have leaky mag problems. Did you sand the paint off the slide and frame or is that some aftermarket frame and slide set? |

| | No leaky mag problems. Only problems I had when I first got it was the bad gas consumption. I fixed that with the teflon tape mod though. Works great now. Frame and slide were just stripped and sanded then polished. Definitely not an aftermarket kit. |

| | Krame - It is a PDI commander race hammer I believe. It is just a temp as I decided to go the beavertail and and ring hammer route. |

| Krame - Rom is right, it is the just released Limited Edition Race hammer. They also have the "egg-hole" style Race Hammer as well. The good thing about them is that they will clear the Government style grip safety. Consider one of them for your Delta. The KM Ring Hammers that will clear the stock grip safety are sold out, and the PDI Hi Capa NeXT hammer will not clear it.
PGC Delta Elite (TM) - usually has a compensator
PGC Colt M1911A1 (TM)
PGC Springfield Operator (WA)
Three Delta Elites - TM (mine), TM (Romulus) and WA (mine)

| | Here is the Race Spec one. It also shows the little change in design that will help with cycling. I honestly don't know if that one will work, but the Race Spec Commander works well. |

| hkssr20det, did WA stop producing the LAPD SWAT edition Kimber? I really, really want one, but can't find it anywhere.  Everyone that still has it listed on their site, says it's out of stock.... |
