Great range toy
This Iver Johnson, as you already know, is built on a 1911 pistol. They've added a longer barrel and a custom stock. Overall thos 1911 is of a cheaper quality. The barrel wabbles just enough to mess with my accuracy, I added a grip mount for a sight and it seems that I cant get out zeroed for my life. It did however, made people at the range ask me "what the heck was that?". Overall, I will do a couple of upgrades myself to get it fine tuned, I would buy it again, it's a great collector gun and range toy.
