Just cannot seem to quit posting today :D . Here is the other project that has been taking a lot of my time. This one will be a full house HP when done. It also just has the majority of the frame work done and will need the small part installation and then hardchrome. It will also be getting the OnTarget logo on the back of the slide after HC. It is a 9MM MKIII that will have all of the good stuff. Hope you enjoy. I can't wait to get this one completed, but you get a real good idea of what it will look like since the media blasted white metal is close to what it will be like in HC.

Thanks. With any luck, you should have it there by Mon or Tues of next week. I am waiting on the C&S trigger. I talked with them yesterday and they just got the new revised batch of triggers done. Suppoed to be better than the old ones. Got the lever hole in the right place so you don't have to shorten the trigger lever and more meat on the tab to shorten the reset. Will see when they get here. They didn't have any done in hardchrome so I have to wait for that before I can send the pistol and associated pieces to your shop.

No worries :D We hardchrome Hipower triggers on a regular basis..


Good choice on the C&S parts btw.. they are the only Hipower components i've ever been able to do a creepless/roll-less hipower triggerjob with haha.

The grips are black Gunners by Simonich. The HP Gunners are a pretty new addition. This gun will be getting a set of those and also a set of Spegel's in cocobolo.

Gun lust is a terrible thing. I lust after every one that I see posted here other than mine. The work is just incredible and I can't believe that these guys just keep raising the bar. Look at the work on the Grey Gun III! :shock:
