I have only sold one, a stainless, passed on to a good home with another forum member. I'm ambivalent about it.

Any of my others? No, pull my fingernails instead.

I had trouble with a safety on my 1911 and took it to a shop that talked a good game. Since money was worth more than time to me, they agreed to work on it as time and gaps in other projects allowed. They had it for a year and a half. I decided to take it to another guy I knew was into the 1911 and he had it fixed in about 40 minutes while I stood and watched. How this all gets back to your comment is that I picked up the Caspian on the Wednesday before the weekend that first shop burned to the ground!
