NICE! One of these days I need to get me an STI. They do build some nice stuff.

Its that semi-circular scratch from the slide stop to the trigger area. Usually happens on take down and/or reassembly when the slide stop is not removed straight out.
[Insert pithy witicism here]

Proudly carrying since 09/10.

Nice looking pistol otherwise - yeah, show us the starboard side :drool:
Wasn't me buddy. It's a used weapon. I take care of my 1911's.

I'll grab a shot of the other side for yall.
