yeah, but Don - I think the upper receiver is probably worth $400+ - the toggle since its been modified, still harder to find, and close to that amount

The frame itself is harder to find and worth $400 with many parts on it

So, we are up to $1200 and a complete gun should be worth more than its parts.

As Rick said, different times - at one time Georg Luger used one for target shooting - and a Lyman sight would have been the thing to get

I see original 1911 and 1911a1 slides with bomar sights and think, jeez.... But they used sights like these by the US Army shooting team if I remember right?
