Picked this up from Terry at PT Partners about a week ago. You'll have to look a pictures in "Guns For Sale" because I can't figure out how to post pictures.

This is the first gun I have had with "slim" grips but not my first custom. I was at the range today and shot better than ever. Don't know if it was just a good day or the gun. The fit in hand was the most natural of any of the guns I have. I mean point of aim was like dead on.

Have you ever had a pistol that just felt right?

I think I found a new carry gun. :D :D :D

You are very fortunate. All of Richard's guns feel right and look right too boot. Its because they are right. He kind of invented "right" when it comes to 1911's in my opinion.

I owned a Heinie gun and it was the best fitted 1911 pistol I have ever encountered. The previous owner had boogered it up by trying to modify it himself (Duhh), but the barrel, slide, frame fit was flawless after many thousands of hot 10mm rds.

I am waiting for another Heinie. A 5" 10mm. Should be any day now (or year). I think Richard has had my order in queue going on 6 years or so.
