Why Mil-Spec over GI?
A few small finishes that you'd have to pay a GS to do. Flare and scallop the port, undercut the trigger, etc. Sights are easier to live with till you get them fixed to what you want.

Yeah, the Foster is just one suggestion to adhere to a price point... there are many other options.
Partly true... but if it's too loose, lock up won't necessarily come to the same place... EVERY time. That's part of what makes a working pistol an "accurate working pistol".
RIAs are okay but they are extrusions.... it's better to start with a forged frame and slide. Springfield or Colt will work. Springfield if you don't care about how it looks. Colt if you want it to be somewhat of a BBQ piece.
Just read about Taurus and thought, "Hey, those are forged 1911s and are fairly cheap."
But isn't the problem with them (ignoring any anti-Taurus bias ) that they are not compatible with other, mil-spec 1911s or parts?
