How hard is it to get a milled trigger?

Can you get a milled steel trigger, good used or new production, for less than $100? I saw one the other day from an early 1911 and it looked like the thing to have...

I have been looking for one... I need one for a special project.

I have yet to find one for sale for any price. So, I think I am going to make one, or try to replicate one.

If you find any, please let me know.

Damn...

I'm tempted to auction the one I have... mine is even rarer...

You notice almost none of his stuff is bid on, and even more, none of it breaks the reserve...

Jim Clark Jr. has boxes of take-of 1911 triggers, most of them steel, that he will sell for a couple of bucks each. I see this box when he is on commercial row at Camp Perry. Give him a call.

Best Regards,

He's the son of Jim Clark Sr (a legend in the 1911 world who sadly passed away) - www.clarkcustomguns.com
