Hilton Yam Custom Delta 1911 – Serial WW124435

Categories: Collectibles, Handguns
Caliber: .45 ACP
Model: 1911
NOT FOR EXPORT

This early custom 1911 from Hilton Yam’s 10-8 Performance is built on a Springfield Armory Delta and personally authenticated by Yam himself. Featuring a 10-8 match barrel, upgraded sights, and Ed Brown components, it’s a functional collector’s piece that embodies precision, reliability, and expert craftsmanship.

Description

This isn’t just another 1911—it’s one of Hilton Yam’s early custom builds, back when 10-8 Performance was still laying down its roots. The base gun? A Springfield Armory Delta is already a rock-solid platform known for its dependability and crisp performance. But in Yam’s hands, it became something else entirely—something sharper, smoother, and unmistakably personal.

What really sets this one apart? It’s not just customized by Hilton Yam—it’s verified by him too. His signature on the gun confirms it passed through his bench, which, in the custom world, is as good as a certificate of authenticity. Yam’s builds are known for their clean, purposeful upgrades—nothing flashy for flash’s sake. Every component has a job, and it’s been handpicked to do it well.

You’ll find a 10-8 Performance match barrel that tightens up your groups and softens the recoil just enough to feel the difference. The sights—front and rear—are thoughtfully upgraded to help you pick up your target quicker. And the trigger? It breaks like glass, with that clean, satisfying snap that tells you Hilton didn’t leave a single detail to chance.

There’s more under the hood: an Ed Brown mainspring housing and ejector, chosen not for looks but for their no-fail reliability. The whole package is designed to be carried, shot, and trusted—not just admired in a case (though it’d look great there, too).

Collectors know that Hilton Yam’s work helped shape what serious shooters expect from a custom 1911. Owning one of his early pieces is like holding a part of that story. This isn’t just a gun. It’s a signed chapter in the evolution of custom combat pistols—and once it’s gone, it’s gone.
