I am sure you won't have any problems that you won't be able to solve and I have never assembled a 1911 from parts, but no doubt you will want to be sure you stick with common parts/spring combinations initially. I have farted around with my Glock .22 conversion kit and was able to induce doubles when I did some machining (removed about .020") on my striker while trying to make the trigger feel exactly as the gun does with the 9mm slide on it. I ended up having to put some material back on then with my tig welder then remachine it with only .010 removed. It all works fine now, but I obviously had gone a tad too far in my quest for a "better" trigger. The gun had worked fine with rapid fire, but when bench rested with a slow trigger reset motion it went off...... Point is, just be careful as Frenchy noted!!!!
