Its back, and I couldn't be happier.

A Yost/Tripp combo creation, I cant call it a 1* anymore since it doesn't have Novaks, but it still gets the point across :)

Some shitty pictures done with my brothers digital camcorder, so excuse them, more later, I am off to the range:

hand bevel mag well
Fitted Kart NM Barrel w/Brown Match Bushing

Very nice. I think Tripp's custom pistolsmithing is excellent but he's still better known for his finishing operation. What was the turnaround time on Tripp's work?

OK, really nice gun, but where did you get the grips?

Thanks guys, appreciate it. Tripp's turn around time was EXTREMELY fast.

And inregards to the worry of people knowing my address, my tinfoil hat isn't put on that tight, not too worried about it.

On top of that, im moving in less than 3 weeks... :wink:

To the person who asked, the grips are from http://www.wickedgrips.com

It came out nice, I have liked those grips for some time, how much do they weigh if you dont mind me asking.

Plus, anybody who wants to make a surprise visit will probably get to see the wrong end of this pistol! :P

They are definitely heavier than any of my other grips. But not to heavy to drag down your belt or holster. And after shooting 300rounds through it, controlled pairs mixed in, the grips truly do absorb some recoil. Took me by surprise.
