This is my first 1911 and I'm learning along the way. It's been accurate and realiable for me. For those who own a 1911, what "do it yourself" upgrades have you done to yours to improve the trigger and/or function.

How many rounds down the tube so far?
Does the trigger have a lot of creep?
Is it too heavy a pull?
Is the let off vague?
Is the gun picky as to ammo?
Something else not up to par?
@Dino - any suggestions for trigger, hammer and beavertail grip?
I was also thinking of changing out the recoil spring to 17 or 18.5 lbs...
I know a lot of people talk about polishing the feed ramps. Is this necessary if your pistol is functioning 100%?

Some small parts will drop in. Most do not "drop in" grip safety, thumb safety to mention a few may or may not need to be fitted along with the barrel. If you plan on doing some work these 2 books are a must Jerry Kuhnhausen Volume 1 and 2. Volume 1 is loaded with all you could possibly need.I'm looking more at drop in parts. So not too much bubba smithing. At least not yet.
