I always wanted an Ed Brown Light Weight Commander with the Bobtail grip but never wanted to wait the length of time it took to get one exactly like I wanted from EB so I decided to have one built to my specs by another talented 1911 smith.
I purchased a new Colt XSE Light Weight Commander and did the bobtail myself I also purchased all new controls, springs and sights. I sent everything to Rob at ACW where he did the slide machining and he sent the frame to Neal Keller for the frontstrap snakeskin machining (to match the Ed Brown snakeskin main spring housing, serrated topstrap, rear of slide serrated, bottom edges of slide beveled, ball cuts on front of slide,11 degree muzzle crown and a trigger job that breaks like a glass rod at three pounds.
All the parts are top shelf EGW, Wilson, 10-8, XS 24/7 night sights
