    Any chance they'll produce a 1911 without that logo? I hate having to polish the rollmarks (or worse, "READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL BEFORE USING FIREARM") off an otherwise flawless platform, and that marking is engraved deep. Also, will the barrel be free from a stupid witness hole?

    Morning everyone~

    I highly doubt they'll remove their own logo from their own firearm.

    Also, the logo is CNC machined into the slide, not rolled.

    There is no loaded chamber inspection hole in the S/L barrel.

    Call me a snob, but for 2k and up I'd expect a better beavertail blend and a guide rod plug that matches the thick flange EGW bushing they're using. It looks like they just slapped a grip safety on the frame without so much as an attempt to clean it up.

    Nicely fit and blended. Notice how the frame tangs flow right into the grip safety. And available for under 2k.

    Thanks for the info. Going to the custom builder on the website, the logo isn't terrible. I could live with it.
    Really like the carbon-fiber grip option. But I talked to my loan officer and he won't finance it without me buying him one too. :):
