Just had the gun shop I deal with hold on layaway another "project" 1911 for me.
This one may just be the holy-grail of off-brand 1911 junk clones. A stainless commander length slide and frame made by VEGA.
Missing the barrel, the frame is cut for a ramped barrel, either factory or a good 'smith job, luckily. Also needs new sights installed and could use a new recoil spring and guide assembly.
The previous owner spent $40 on new parts, which are included, before he found out about the cost of a ramped barrel.
Did I get hosed for paying $85, tax included, for this mess?
