Do I need to buy 50 receivers, then go through the learning process of building a 1911 out of them, with as much mentoring as I can steal from knowledgeable folks and only expect to make a decent one by number 48 or 49, throwing the rest away? There is no real secret knowledge and magic to making a 1911 though propagating that notion is in the best interests of a 1911 gunsmith and custom builder.
Lots of guys build from one receiver and right out of the gate make something better than he can buy from a factory. As or more reliable, as or more accurate...
I bet I am one of the first type of guys though...
Also, I saw a Caspian catalog for a Damascus Steel 1911 slide (and other parts) at the NRA Convention. Purty. I'm gonna get it! Work on it. Then I'll have something that costs $900 to throwaway when I mung it trying to gunsmith on it...
I would have throught that German IT Security teams would be more competent

I was not expecting this:
Germany's infosec office (BSI) is sounding the alarm after finding that 92
percent of the nation's Exchange boxes are still run...

Even my top tier custom 1911 guy won't work on damascus slides. He says the different steel alloys make it impossible to get a reliable fit. He built two...he sold them as BBQ guns, not shooters.
