Thanks again everyone, see you at the range…..! :D
Amazing details, and the above is pretty good news as well. Looking forward to getting on that list after seeing this beauty.

Incredible, and a build done on an 'NM' Mil-Spec instead of a GI or a Colt for once :D That's about all I can say do to the drooling..........

Stan,

That pistol is really stunning and so are the photos. It is hard to believe that you can keep topping the last one you floored us with, over and over again.

Well done, my friend.

I love that front strap.

Best,

Ray

I must commend you, as well on the inclusion of the rear of the frame in the mainspring/backstrap treatment. I always tried to do that with checkering as well, just for that extra bit of purchase. helped me miss faster....lol. I would really like to know what rod you used in welding those rear tangs. If you feel like sharing! I am a little rusty, and the pruchase of a new water cooled synchrowave begs practise. Chuck

Beautiful pistol with some interesting new twists I hadn't seen before. The photography is excellent, I have a camera that should be capable of that kind of detail but I haven't been able to achieve that kind of clarity. Great pistol!

Damn, that's a sweet pistol!

That's some RUGGED looking strap treatment--ought to grip like Velcro.

A good friend of mine was lucky enough to end up with this beauty. He was extremely impressed....to say the least. It was also nice getting to meet Stan while I was there at the match.

The detail at the front sight dovetail is the best I have ever seen. The backstrap work really sets it off. For me...

Very nice, indeed...

I love the "checkering" on the front strap. That is a great looking pistol .
