Not sure if Classic. But here is my %80 1911 I built. Thing is a freaking laser beam. Super dirty as you can see on the muzzle and a bad photo. But you get the idea.

None of them so far have been, though all very nice, they're modern 1911's Smile

Though of that last trio, I only own the one on the left now.

More modern than the other, and I'll never be a fan of front slide serrations, but good lord this one is a shooter.

Here's my plain jane Ed Brown in 45 auto. The closest catalog item is the Executive Target. My personal touches include the non-textured front strap, solid trigger, abbreviated beavertail grip safety and sterile slide. Note also the traditional slide stop contour. Given my druthers, I would have preferred 90 degree slide serrations with traditional style grip & thumb safeties.

Bought this SW new about 6 years ago. Has a couple thousand rounds through it. Never a malfunction and shoots like a dream!

Nice pictures and guns but a classic 1911 will not have:
A beaver tail
A hammer without a spur
A mag well
Holes in the trigger

Since the thread title references the "Classic 1911" here's my .45, (the others are (9's).

Not a classic 1911, but it is what I have.
