Match X
I bought a Girsan Witness Match X. Have done many upgrades to it including EGW ignition kit, red dirt trigger, Kimber 2K11 aluminum grip module, and more. I do not like the gray color of the frame and barrel. Has anybody taken it apart and polished them to be chrome-like? I like that look as a have a Canik Rival S in Chrome and I like that.
Any advise?

Took my brand new Prodigy 5" Comp to the range this weekend. This is my first pistol with an optic and my shots were all over the target. I don't claim to be a crack shot, but usually shot far better than that.
I decided to just use the iron sights and it turned out to be the best shooting gun, out of the box, that I have ever had.
I guess I need to learn to use the optic or take the dang thing off. A friend helped me bore sight it at the house before we went to the range. It should have been pretty close to zero. Any tips on shooting with this sight? Also, looking for recommendations for light to put it that won't break the bank.
TIA

This gun was good out of the box. After some upgrades I did, it is a beast of a little gun. The only thing remaining I am debating is a chunk port job by Danger Close Armament.
List:
MJD Villan Grip with mag catch
Red dirt F3 flat trigger
Harrison CC TR Ignition set DLC BLACK. (Prodigy compact beaver tail runs perfect with Hammer)
Harrison Strut and pin
EGW Ambi Safety
EGW 17 pound mainspring
EGW firing pin
EGW Guiderod 16 pound spring
Black point Dual point with mag carrier holster
TLR-7X WML

Being in CA, of course I paid a little more than most of you, but still not bad since I got eight mags with it.
Going to be my new LO gun, coming from striker fired guns, I liked the the return on the 4.25 more than the 5.
Put an SRO on it immediately, and just waiting on parts now before off to my gunsmith (pretty much threw the EGW catalog at it with some added Atlas parts).

My first conversion upgrade, didnt realize how much material i'd have to remove to get everything to fit, i think basically every piece needed either several swipes on the stone, or a file. I got a little over zealous with the dremel removing material from the top of the trigger to get it to clear but other than that i reckon it came out ok. Really like the pinned beaver tail, and it fits super snug. Feels great in the hand too!

Black grip on the Coyote Prodigy
Finally got my black grip from Springfield. Ordered 12/25 and finally got it delivered. I think this looks good!

Just bought a Comp 4.25 Prodigy, this is my first 1911 gun, any tips on maintenance and overall things to look out for? Any bad experience with ammo?
I was between this and the 3.5 version, but got a (what a think is) good deal on the comp 4.25 ($1,390 out the door) for the gear up pac that includes the 4 mags and the green dot.
Thanks!
