I have a Lightweight Colt Officers ACP that I have owned and carried since the mid 80's. The pistol was a bit rough from use and had some minor work done to it through out the years, but I wanted it to look nice and to be reliable.
The last custom pistol (a 70 Series LW Commander that patterend (not grouped) and had the "lines" destroyed had soured me on custom pistols.
John Harrison was very highly recommended to me by a long time friend that does not readily give out compliments.
John took on the project and was great to work with and the pistol exceeded my expectations.
It has become my primary CCW pistol and the pistol I admire the most and carry daily.
The pistol has been absolutly reliable and has not even thought about malfunctioning.
I plan on sending a steel Officers ACP to John and have him perform the same work on it that he did to the LW OACP. I also have a steel Commander that will be making the trip to Georgia.
