That works out well 'cause someone's gun is pretty close to finished. 8)

Excellent looking kit John!

It's been a real pleasure watching you hone your skills over the last few years and judging by the company you keep and this latest photo it's no doubt that your work is nothing short of exemplary.

Guys,

I received one of the IWB rigs for a J-frame. I specified a straight drop so it could be used with an appendix carry. The quality and finish was first rate. I think ol' John is going to go places. Better get your orders in before others find out about him and he is backlogged like Tony, Josh, and others.

Rob

John's work is amazing! The shark trimmed SAP and mag holder for a P7M8 (top row at center) is being broken in as we speak. Thanks John. It was well worth the wait.
