great frame
It is a cast frame, the rough casting is done with 4130 steel at Ruger's Pine tree foundry in NH then finish machined by Caspian. Do not be afraid of of this frame being cast. tolerances are on the big side for fitting. Big name at a low price. hole placement is spot on. In the white may be a con for some but it also allows you finish as desired. Bare frame, no plunger tube installed.

NICE
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.
