Chuck,

Very nicely done, as always. I like what you did to the Novak rear.

Best,

Ray

Chuck, that is outstanding work!! I know the owner will be elated!!! As Ray said, I love the modification you did to the Novak rear, it makes the sight picture much cleaner.

That gun is so outstanding. I really like it! Drives me nuts when Colt takes the corners off the front of the slide. Why can’t they just leave it alone? Beautiful work!!!!!!!!!!!

Superb workmanship, Chuck. Every time I look at pics of one of your pistols, I always find a new surface that you incorporated into your carry bevel. And they're always cut like facets in a diamond, even from one end to the other and matching from one side of a part to the other. There are very few craftsman that can pull that off.

Congrats to the owner! You're getting a very nice pistol built by one of the best in the business. :D

Chuck, Somehow, you almost seem to make the superb pedestrian, as everyone of your guns is absolutely flawless!

Sweet blaster Chuck!

I dig how the lanyard loop recess nestles in perfectly to the golfballs. Along with 3 dozen other nice touches of course! :D

Wow. Awesome.

As an aside, how "grippy" are the VZ grips? I was thinking about a set of Warthogs, or maybe Wurms for my incoming Nighthawk.


Thanks
Rich

Chuck,

That's a doggone nice looking pistol. Your style definitely stands out in the 1911 realm. Those grips just add to the unique look of that piece, but they make me DIZZY! :shock: I have to try some of that golf ball treatment on a gun soon. Fine job, Chuck!

Not only is your work superb on this gun, you were great to deal with and to put up with my emails and calls asking questions. I truley appreciated your time and will enjoy this gun for years to come :)

As the rednecks,also known as "hunyaks",here in VT. would say,WAAH! Trust that its a positive exclamation.Great looking gun.Clean and uniform.Grips look cool but I cant stare at them too long.
I really liked the treatment under the trigger guard.Took a moment to notice and thats a good thing.Swoops up without looking too...swooped. :wink:
