Not me. I bought a Springfield GI, dumped the factory mags for Wilsons, changed the recoil spring to an 18lb, and put a healthy dollup of grease on the rails and fired away.

I bought it because I grew listening to my father talk about the 1911 he was issued in the military back in the day. I wanted one just for range fun.
