barr44,

Unless this frame/slide has visible cracks in it, the chances of it being unsafe to shoot are pretty slim. The 1911's were made to have a comfortable "fit" so that parts were interchangeable. Last time I looked, .45 ACP ammo at Walmart (in non-reloadable aluminum cases) was about $15.00 a box of 50. Or $21.00 a box with reloadable brass cases. Take it out and enjoy it!
