The first guns from Ted Yost at Heirloom Precision: Signature Grade Consecutively Numbered New Rollmarked Colt Stainless Steel S70s!

Beautiful Hand Rubbed Satin Finish
Round Butt conversion w/ Blended Handmade English Walnut Stocks
Gold Line Front/ Ted's rear (sight I mean)
Flattened/Serrated Top, . . . . . .
...and just about everything else you can imagine which befits a Signature Grade build from Ted.



enjoy

We'll hopefully have a couple new pics up tomorrow--one's that show off the beautiful satin finish better. For now, I can only hope that these give you all some kind of idea of what these things are like :twisted:

Beautiful! I really like the rounded bottom. I didn't notice any monogram. Are they planning to mark their new guns? Wish I had the extra $

I believe Ted has begun to mark his signature grade work with a T.R. Yost under the grip panel and signs the grip panels in place of the more noticable Yost Custom. That is how my sole Yost 1911 was marked anyway. We'll see on #2 this week.

Bill those are gorgeous. I shot you an e-mail earlier.

They'll be marked for sure… depending on who did the work each gun will wear one of our makers marks. We've been marking our work that way for some time now so we figured we'd just keep that the same.

Should the customer desire an understated shop logo can be applied as well. And of course guns that Ted and I collaborate on will be marked with both our makers marks. :wink:

Two nice examples of work. The blend on the grips to the rounding shows the attention to detail.

Like I said a few time before, one of the reason I am in this business I may not be able to own many of these works, I can possess for a period of time, and in this case see them.

Thanks.

Whoa! I thought I was over stainless guns, but that satin is awesome. Those round butts are something else too!
