There is alot to be said for having the right tool for the job. If you were a "tactical" operator this would be your hammer. For some reason some smiths do a few styles absolutely perfect. Ted has just happened to crank out a few Operators that are in this category. Jason had kept telling me about this gun and until I saw it I really couldn't appreciate how nice this build is.

This one has has the following.
Frame and slide hand fit
Match trigger
Schuemann match fit 10mm barrel
Beavertail grip safety
Flattened and serrated slide top in "feathered" arrow pattern
Custom mag well with lanyard loop
Serrated rear of slide
Deep cut crown with match fit bushing
Match fit ejector and extractor
Bordered slide
Hand cut checkred frontstrap
Ambidextrious thumb safety
Heavy duty slide stop
Lowered and flared ejection port
Yost Custom action components
Hand cut dehorn
Ball end cuts on front of slide

Ted,

I absolutely love that gun. The setup, caliber, and the color... just what a fella needs. Damn fine job. I have no other words.

Steve,

As per usual, your photographic capabilities make a great build look beautiful. Keep 'em coming.

That is a nice hammer.
I could have used it when I was hanging pictures in my mother's room at the nursing home earlier this week. And they complained about the noise then...

nice gun, looks mean....
I really like the rounded slide stop inside the countersunk slide stop hole, most of the time i have seen them cut flat, but this one caught my eye right away.....good work

On a recent visit to the shop I asked Jason if they were working on anything "Cool". Ted pulled this out. I had to admit, it was cool!

Removing the rollmarks was a master stroke. Also nice to see a short trigger for a change, too.

the devil is in the details as they say... I love the 10mm markings on the barrel and the way the crown is done. Minor points, I know... but what a spectacular product.

Black T on the gun, correct?

If only the military actively stocked 10mm...

Just echoing what everyone else has said. That is a very sexy blaster, I too like the crown job on the muzzle. Never was a big fan of ambi thumb safeties though. Other than that its nearly perfect to my eyes!
