Oh, it's definately in shootable condition, but I won't be shooting it, at least with commercial ammo. It's designed for a 200 grain bullet going about 700fps, and the locking wedge is a definate weak point in the design. There's a whole subset of collecting guns with factory replacement slides (this one is original) because shooting them with the 230 grain ammo intended for the 1911 tends to cause cracking in the slide.
