Definitely recommended

Brownells USA Very nice receiver 27/03/2014

I've used Caspian receivers on numerous builds, both for customers and myself, and I continually come back to them. This one in particular has a nice classic look that I like. The only negative I can think to mention, is that the trigger slot is very tight. It makes you spend a little more time fitting the trigger, but if you know it going in, it's not that big of a deal. Brownell was awesome to deal with as always.

Brownells USA NICE 02/04/2012

thought the precision of the cuts was very nice. Most 1911 parts fit right on except for the trigger. The cuts for the trigger were very snug, they are going to take some filing. Other than that i am very pleased with this product.
