Early Colt 1911 (help)
Hello, I recently picked this firearm up at a local shop. They didn't have much on it other then it was a older colt serial. Hoping you all could help provide some more information.
The serial appears to be 1918, based on colts website. The previous owner had after market grips, grip safety, and main spring that were not around the period correct. I acquired what I could. My assumption is they also re-finished the pistol but hoping someone can tell me if its period correct. Not really looking to get a price on what its worth, its worth more to me sentimentally then it could ever be worth.

Holster questions
So I'm planning to get a 1911 with an overall length of 8.7". And I figured I'd ask the random, masses of webbernets strangers of Reddit. I'm looking to get a leather horizontal over the shoulder thumb break holster, preferably one with a magazine holster as well.

Gunsmiths in lower Michigan?
Hello all, I have recently acquired a Springfield trp operator. Is there any reputable gunsmiths around Hartland Michigan that can cut/crown a barrel and possible optic cut? TIA

Still my all time favorite
Spends entirely too much time in the safe these days though.

I took ammunition out of this magazine to put in snap caps and it kept malfunctioning until this happened. Ammo was very tight and hard to feed out. What did I do wrong?
Magazine has had about 50 live rounds through it. 9mm ultra
