Nice, tbear. Looking at mine this am (01911 carbonia blue) wrestling with the same issue: shoot, or keep.... Of course should just lube it up and shoot it and enjoy it. Just that nagging thought of, these are the closest to a "new" original 1911 as exists, which feels kinda strange to break-in. Ah hell, it's a reproduction, gonna shoot it. Hope you enjoy yours, too.
