Tim, a stunning pistol illustrated with fantastic photography. Lots to admire on this one, I don't know where to start. This one is "just right". Very well done!

I dunno,

Beautiful Blued 1911 pattern 10mm.........................lots a dough
Handmade wood stocks........................................lots a dough
Constructed by a former Bullseye Smith...................lots a dough
Negative line checkering pattern.............................lots a dough
Cereal Bowl crown on barrel...................................lots a dough

All together trigger job, tons of hours, final finish.......priceless................well maybe not, but it certainly sells the point home.

Nice work CT.

Tim,

That is the most beautiful thing I ever saw.

I certainly hope I can afford my doubles when the time comes; but that is exactly what I want. Is that a reverse plug or what is it called? It makes the business end look very sleek and refined.

Wow! It's stuff like this that keeps me from buying a stock 10mm! I just I can do so much better.

These pictures alone could grace the cover of American Handgunner with an story on how well it is built. Great looking 1911. Wish it was mine.

Well, every time I smugly lean back on my Coca-Cola crate and think to myself "All of the cool stuff you can do to a 1911 has been done", within a short time, somebody comes along and kicks the crate out from under me! :shock: And more often than not, it's Tim! :D

Very cool work there, bro! I'm diggin' the accent line on the spring tunnel and the hybrid checkering. All around awesome blaster, as usual.

I have come to this post about twenty times now. I just can't get enough. I mean, from a distance, as in, from across my den twenty feet to the monitor, it looks rather simple. But, when I actually look at all the little touches and the superb blending of all the parts, it just makes me all warm and fuzzy... and jealous of the owner.

The caliber is perfect, as is the gun. You have outdone yourself, Mr. Brian.

I've been looking at this gun for days now and it simply makes me silent with awe. It really is something. I've never wanted a 10 before and now I know why...I'd probably accidently shoot myself in the eye because I can't stop looking down that muzzle :shock: It simply mesmerizing!

Tim, It's really hard to comment after awhile, as the durn things are always so........flawless (and kinda purty too).
Great job for I'm sure a VERY happy customer, and one of my favorite calibers.

beautiful pistol. I especially like the serrated/checkered combo on the mainspring housing.

Superb!
No need for Mr. Brian's name etched on his work. It is easily recognized in his flawless craftsmanship and unique design.
:D

Wow! :shock:
The whole LTW website continues to be a great "candy store" for me- and this is yet another example of me having my nose up against the glass in awe.
I have a spot for one of the limited series guns CT is producing, and my number should be coming up sometime fairly soon- I can hardly wait. I have made of point of trying to NOT think about that soontobebuiltandmine gun, but when I see photos like these, I can't help but get excited.
Thanks for sharing the applied art with us all!
