Saw a custom 1911 the other day, which appeared to be a Swenson custom, though I did not scrutinize it in detail. It was a full size Colt based 1911, hard chrome finish, modified with an S&W K-Frame adjustable rear sight.

To me the Swensons have always been a bucket list 1911, as he was an early pioneer of custom 1911s. Anyone else find his guns of interest?
