I am beginning to do a bit of home gunsmithing, and I want to first focus on 1911 style pistols. I have done a bit of metal and wood working over the years, have had a couple of pistol armorers courses, but I have never had any training in the art of gunsmithing. I have reviewed the Wilson 1911 gusmithing videos, and am ready to try some milling. I am going to look around for an inexpensive 1911 style .45 to "practice" on. Other than looking for a used gun, do any of you have any suggestions for what brands or models would be suitable for this endeavor? Also, any advice on sources to continue my education would be appreciated. Thanks.
