This gun started out as a Safari Arms 5" gun, which, for the owners reasons he wanted to use. Since all the holes were in the right place, it was cut to Commander size, a bit of welding done, a few parts added, and it ended up as you see here. Sorry for the quality of the pics - it seems I didn't have the camera settings just right :roll: , and now it's gone back home.

Not to be anal or anything but it's not the retro sight. It's their new rear "Pro Sight" for the Novak cut. As seen here http://www.yost-bonitz.com/products/prosights/

Well, not to be anal either but it is actually our Professional Grade sight for a Heinie cut. :wink:

Please contact the shop if you are interested in any of the sights.

Don, nice gun. Sometimes those customer requests can sure limit what acutally can be done. You did this one nicely. Looking forward to seeing you at Shot.

Very nice, Don! As per usual.

Was this your first time working with RRA products?

Damian, Yeah, I couldn't get a Caspian slide at the time, but RRA had one in stock. Worked out very well.

Ahh, I was wrong again. Those sights are pretty awesome. The more I see them the more they grow on me. I have been a big fan of the Heinie Low Mount (for the Novak cut) but I want to try a SDM gold bead front w/ u-notch rear and a Yo-Bo for the Novak. Are there plans for them through Brownells or just direct?

Don, I'm glad you are back into the picture takin' biz :lol: My gun pron folder was startin to shrink for your work so it's nice to re-infuse it.

Man, this place just makes the wish list grow.
