I just received two Colt's back from Marianne Carniak.
First up is a Colt's Combat Commander.
This Commander was completly redone with Ed Brown parts, Novak sights, front strap checkered 25lpi, butt of pistol & magwell bevel, dehorned, Robar Np3 finish, & Esmeralda grips. I'm sure there are other things I missed.

Both of those are stunning, the grips highlight the NP3 and both are well thought out carry pistols. I am sure you are extremely pleased with how they turned out.

Very nice duo. I agree that they are well thought out.

Beautiful guns! Does Ms. Carniak have a website? If you don't mind me asking about how long was her wait list?

Thanks,
