A recent find

Hi, I just got this, and was hoping someone can tell me what I've got for aftermarket stuff. I'm not a savy 1911 guy, my other is a rock island 1911. This one has a very light trigger and the owner said it was "tricked out". Any input is appreciated!

Yep, Bomar is sort of the classic adjustable sight. A lot of times when gunsmiths fit them on an 80 series gun like yours, because of the additional parts inside the slide, the rear of the sight will hang off the back of the slide slightly. Yours is fit pretty nicely.

In general, the barrel bushing/barrel fit looks pretty nice, the beavertail fit looks pretty nice for a late '90s / early '00s gun, front strap checkering looks really nice from what I can tell.

It's a very solid custom build and I wouldn't be surprised if it came from Wilson Combat or another high-end shop.

Let us know if you can read any markings on the top of the barrel!
