To be honest, there's only one person luckier than Ted, and that's the guy on the receiving end. (me)
I can't compete with Jason on the photography, but I wanted to share some pics of a stunning Delta 10mm I just received from Mr. Yost.
I asked him to use artistic license on the upgrades and don't think he left anything out.
Enjoy!

I was very fortunate to visit Ted and Jason's Shop when this particular piece was being built. If you folks could only see the before and after. I have a few in the "works" and guys, take the time to see a before and after. Someone told me "Patience Pays in the long run" and in this case it has. I know how many times Robert talked to me about this piece and the anticipation, and patience paid off.

I have a WWI from Colt I often display at the few gunshows I attend, that is before and when the "looker" see's the after on the match pair of WWI's Heirloom Precision built it is amazing. NOT a plug here but I have one of the WWI's on consignment you will see all of the fine detail that goes into a "Heirloom Precision" piece on the before and after.

Robert, congratulations on the piece and the same for the craftsman that built it.

That is an absolutely beautiful Delta. Not too much, and nothing untouched.

Excellent work, Ted.

Great looking Delta. I like how you added the bull barrel for durability. What is the fun in having a 1911 with regular maintance you can't shoot to your heart's content?
