This fantastic Delta was built by Lou Biondo. (Business End Customs). I can't say I've seen any of his work on this forum and thought it was worthy of sharing.
Although I have many 1911's this Colt Delta 10 is my first 10mm and I'm looking forward to taking it out and seeing what it can do.
Fit and finish is awesome!!!
The build....

Fit & blended EWG grip safety, modified Ed Brown thumb safety, slide milled for sights, flared ejection port, modified 10-8 rear sight & Novak front sight, ramped Kart barrel & EGW bushing fitted, round butt, carry bevel, C&S hammer & sear ,flushed & recessed slide stop ,solid medium trigger, slide & frame lines cleaned up, balls cuts, flush & crowned barrel and of course some Rogers *Golf Balls*
Finished with a custom two tone Cerakote color.

Lookin' good.

I met Lou or someone from Business End Customs at the SHOT Show and commented that I think that was an awesome name for the biz. Wish I'd chatted more with him/them.

I find the plain band at the bottom of the frontstrap, where the golfballs/whatever have been stopped early, to be quite elegant. In a business-like sort of way.

Those grips on the safety side either give me a headache or make me want to eat some brownies, drink some "special tea", and listen to my Hendrix albums backwards while staring into a black light.
Nice gat and I'll bet the grips work great!

Beautiful. which Novak front is this? I'm assuming its fiber optic but I could not find one with a solid housing like this.
