Y’all saved my evening reading this thread. Just picked up a 1911 grade 3 from my favorite gun shop this afternoon. Took it apart to lubricate the pivots and add some crystalline wax. Then, ut oh could not get the fore end back on. Found a small piece of wood moulding and resolved as noted. Just mailed the research letter application and check to Chuck to get the history on this beauty. Will bust some clays tomorrow. The forum is a great tool for those of us who like the old stuff. Mike
