I did show the pictures to a few smiths at Armscor and they by no means are talking bad about the 1911 or the smith but did say that they have replaced a couple of RIA 1911 pistols that came back looking like yours. Granted we are talking about 2 completely different animals here but in business the customer needs to be taken care of.

You could always buy one of these and have it customized for you!!! I know ..........it is still not a Baer!!!

Maybe could get 3 RIAs, for the same price as the Baer, and have Armscor ship them in a plain cardboard box with Baer written in magic marker. He'd be ahead.

He could actually get about 5 for the price of the Baer.

But like I said it would still not be the Baer Monolith that he wants!!

Sorry to hear that Ell, that should of never left the shop like that. Do whats in your heart, weather its to sell it or to run it as is. I won't give that man my money (not that I can afford it).
Automag, what is an average cost of a custom shop RIA?
