Mr. Brian, is it a new, extractor-less type of 1911?

' Cause I can't see the end of extractor at the rear of the slide.

Wait, now I see it.

Now I don't.

See it.

Don't.


Do I really need to keep all that money in my pension fund?



Outstanding piece of art.

Holy crap, that is a good looking gun!!!

I love those hi-power cuts more everytime I see them.

I wonder if I'd get fired if I just up and went to the SHOT show? A buddy of mine has an extra ticket.

That is hot! I really like the extra touches and the size is great for carry.

"CHOPPER" =Sounds like something I would see on a late night infommercial by Ron Popeil :wink:

WOW Tim, you never cease to amaze. If only my last name was Getty or Gates! Wait, I have a slightly use Mother-in-Law for trade, walks with a limp and cane but is very quiet! Good with a broom around the house or shop. :)

Anywhoo, what a blaster Tim. Fantastic!

One "unintended consequence" of hangin' at LTW, it keeps me humble. Less un-humble at the very least. Pretty hard to get to full of myself when there's so much good stuff being slung about!

Sheesh, tell me about it...... :roll:

That there is concealed carry nirvana, in the flesh. Superb craftsmanship of the perfect (to me anyways) carry config...awesome work CT! I've seen the OC Choppers, but the Colorado Chopper is way more up my alley! :D

Really a beautiful pistol, Tim.

I might be nuts, but are the frame and slide different dimensions than on a Colt?

The pictures struck me as kinda 'off' so I compared the pic with Tim's full house custom and it seems like the dustcover and the slide on the Chopper are thicker than the Colt.

Also, are the radii on the top of the slide and the bottom of the dustcover of the Chopper thinner (more curve)?

Here is a pic of the full house for reference.
