we normally have a single stack 45 IDPA match once a year. it's not required you bring out your old 1911, but you are encouraged to do so.
so last year i brought out my old gold cup trophy. first stage, the rear sight pin fails, costing me lots of points down. sigh. i temp fix it with a piece of paperclip, continue on, and do pretty well the remainder of the match as far as accuracy.
so this year i plan to haul out my 1912 vintage 1911 (5 digit SN) and run that for that match. i'll lube it up well and have fun. no way i'll win. small battle sights, 7 lb trigger, and it rattles when you shake it. 105 year old pistol that still works! and parts are still available!
