John does GREAT work and also sells magnificent parts!! It was my pleasure to show my pistol, Marty needs to do some more work on it though.

Awesome video, great looking pistol. I like that all the MIM parts have been replaced!!! Now you can trust that pistol!! Great review of your pistol!!!

IMHO, it was trustworthy before the upgrades, we have a 9mm Ronin that works great, but John Harrison did such a GREAT job with it, I had to let him roll with it!! Originally, I only sent him the slide for sights, that was it!! John talked me into all these wonderful parts he makes!!

John Harrison is a Master Gunsmith not only can he build a top shelf pistol but he builds all the parts as well. My hands are getting old but when I need parts I buy them from John. Take care, flea

John replaced the target sights on my stainless Springfield Loaded with his specially cut night sights. He sighted it in, included a target sheet showing aim point and bullet holes. Thank you John.

I just picked up my 4.25-inch Ronin yesterday in 9mm. The first changes will be grips and changing the RED FO pipe to NEON GREEN. A Harrison 0.156" U-notch rear sight and short solid trigger will be next.

This is the beauty of the 1911 platform, there are so many options, most of them you can do yourself!!

That's a fine-looking pistol and I Just got my Delta Elite full rail back from Nighthawk custom and had them do a front grip texturing... looks great and you don't have to send the whole gun in , so that will save you in shipping

1911's are like that, they are wonderful as stock pistols, but they are ready for customizing.

Mr. Harrison's part cannot be beat. Every part I have purchased has been beautifully machined, ready to install and fit, and his thumb safety install instructions should be a requirement for 1911 tinkerers. His ignition system, thumb safety and flat/square firing pin stop were the best improvements I've ever made to a 1911. He's proud of his parts, has every right to be, but you cannot match the quality. The 1911 world will suffer when he retires.

Nice shooting there. Guns are like cars, you can add the stuff you want and if someone else doesn't like it, who cares, it is yours to do what you want to with it. I like the idea of upgrading all the internals, but truth be told I am far from some sort of operator and couldn't wear out off the shelf components even if I had the budget for the good stuff, lol. Take care.

Upgrades like these are just something that you do when you can afford them, the pistol is great from the factory, but With great parts like Harrison's, you can make the pistol your own!!

Question, what trigger did you get? I got this gun in commander size 9mm. I didn’t know it had a plastic trigger till just a few weeks ago. I’d like to replace the trigger with a metal one.

How far did you have your gun sighted in from? Do you use 6 o’clock hold or the dot covers your target?

10-15 Yards and Dot covers the Target.

In my opinion, you took a gun with outstanding good looks, an expensive looking pistol out of the box, and made it look like an average looking rock island for god sake. Just my opinion.
