Raylan Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Just got this new 1911, guess could be used in a Wild Bunch category. Gunsite Service Pistol, very nice trigger and excellent accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Good looking 1911. What is the base gun that Fink’s Gunsmithing is using to make these? G&A didn’t want to “get down into the weeds” on this pistol. https://www.gunsandammo.com/editorial/gunsite-service-pistol-gsp-1911/489071 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raylan Posted July 22 Author Share Posted July 22 They get forged steel frames and slides from Tyler Gun Works. The fit on mine is well done on slide and frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Kit Cool Gun Garth Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 @Pat Riot, From: https://gundigest.com/gun-reviews/handguns-reviews/finks-gsp-1911-review/amp The Details Finks starts with a 70 series, forged steel frame and slide sourced through Tyler Gun Works. It’s fitted with a hammer-forged match barrel with a recessed target crown, duty weight springs, extended grip safety, Wilson Combat thumb safety, long skeletonized match trigger, scalloped EGW main spring housing, and the trigger guard is undercut. The entire pistol then receives a carry bevel/de-horning treatment to do away with its sharp edges, front strap serrations, wide-cut cocking serrations on the front and rear of the slide, reliability and trigger job, lowered and flared ejection port, and the magwell is beveled too. A U-notch Wilson Combat battlesight is installed to mate with a Novak yellow outlined tritium front sight that stands out like a ready-to-bust pimple on a fashion model’s nose. The pistol then receives a satin blue finish, and G10 Super Scoop grips are installed with chromed hex head screws. The Finks GSP is a 1911, optimally configured for training and fighting. Other features include a most unique Commander-style hammer with a cutout in the shape of the Gunsite raven. Also, on the right slide of the slide just behind the rear cocking serrations is an engraved Gunsite raven. Just under the ejection port, “GSP Government” is engraved and “Gunsite Service Pistol” is engraved on the left side of the slide. Additional customization is optional, but limited if you want the pistol to retain its GSP identity. There’s a lot to look at in this picture, but notice the keen carry bevel on the bottom edge of the slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 I am truly glad it starts out as a quality frame and slide. All too often lately I see “custom” 1911s built on Rock Island guns. Thanks Pards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
