S W E E T ! ! ! Go with the synthetic grips ( G10? ), they look best on that gun. If you had gone with traditional sights then the Rosewood/Cocobolo would be sweetest. Either way........gorgeous. ETA: the VERY minimalistic job you did on the safety and slide stop are TOP notch. I love it when you guys keep the controls simple. It adds a nice, elegant, extra touch of class to the piece....... |

Very nice gun but I an curious as to why you didn’t contour the front sight base to match the slide.

Thanks for the nice comments, guys!:)
I know the owner is enjoying them. This has been a hard gun to photograph. In real life, it's jet black with a slight sheen. I took a few more pics outside that capture the color/finish a bit better. It is a Heinie rear sight, modified. The finish is Gun-Kote over park. The grip safety is an S&A, recontoured. The hammer is from Kings.....checkered by them!!!!:) http://www.the-gunsmith.com/sarge/woodsonsized/105s.jpg http://www.the-gunsmith.com/sarge/woodsonsized/101s.jpg http://www.the-gunsmith.com/sarge/woodsonsized/104s.jpg |

Chuck,
The polishing has sizled my retinas. I think that, perhaps, my next three guns should be discounted if not free. ;-) As usual the vision and blending is extraordinary. As I have commented elsewhere, and will continue, the bevels and the chamfers all work together to atract the eye, no matter how untrained. And, I can look back and remember when your beavertails began to move toward perfection. I knew it was going to happen, right after we discussed BTs. Anyway, beautiful, as usual my friend.

I hate threads like these. They make me want to spend a lot of money.
Great pistol. I bet it shoots as good as it looks. Only thing I'd want is an ambi safety. |

Stunning. I love the dehorning. I'm also a fan of serrated front straps as opposed to checkered. I'm a little baffled at the great beavertail with the standard thumb safety, but to each his own.
I would say to stick with the G10 grips. The wood ones already have a crack.

Really nice work. I particularly like the bevels on the rear sight and blending of the magwell.
Keep posting and I'll be forced to send in my Norinco that could use a little TLC.
