OK, I've been bitten hard by the 1911 bug. I've got about every catalog to every parts place and factory site in the world in the last month!!!!!
How is it that I can order a frame or a slide with no serial numbers on it? I thought that all frames had to have a number on them. Do aftermarket frames come with serial numbers on them, and that would mean that you'dd have to have an FFL to get one?
Am I mistaken here, or is it really possible to assemble a 1911 from components without a serial number? Not that I'm looking to do just that, but it sure seems like there's a loophole here, and I don't understand!!!
