Ok, I am officially out of the running for this gun. I just laid out $$ for another 1900 AE and and swearing off the Nazi era guns. The contact information is 217-585-1911 11-6pm CST talk to John. He is not the owner of the gun, but is selling it for the owner. Just tell him where you got his number from. I feel that he is going to want in the $1300 $1400 range for the gun, but is open to offers. his email is
mailto:gunsmith45@aol.comgunsmith45@aol.com</a>
Good luck.
PS: John is 110% trustworthy, but he does love 1911's too much!
