Hey All,

I thought Ray had posted the pictures to this build, but I did a search and could not find the updated pics. It would be a real shame not to show off Ray's work on this one. It started its life as a Colt Officer, now it is a Colt Officer frame with a Caspian Commander Slide. Build sheet is a long one from what you can tell, but some honorable mentions obviously go out Marc Morganti of Gemini Customs was EXTREMELY nice to do the rear melt sight melt down for me, hard chrome was done by a company in Florida (forgot their name), Grips were done by Ed Strange of Wicked Grips, and of course Ray for his stunning attention to detail on the frame and slide.

I'm a REALLY BIG FAN of the CCO Concept, and that is The Cat's Meow. 8)

That is one sexy pistol. I'm not a huge fan of the CCO concept, but you can't deny the amount of labor and love that went into that build. Even though the CCO is not my first choice this pistol might be changing my mind a little bit.

The gun is real nice, the rear sight blending and build exceptional. Great job.

Yeah...I'll chime in. That build looks fantastic. Every detail from the rear of sights/slide to the bushing. Well done!

Enjoy that heater!
