My latest gunshop find: 
|
I photoshopped the last two digits of the serial number out. I like the LWTs too, but I'm still wary of their durability. I know some people who have had many tens of thousands of rounds through them, but I cracked my first one after about 5,000 rounds. It was used, so who knows what was run through it before me. I got this one for $500, so I was pleased. There's another being sold in Phoenix on another board that is way nicer condition than this for $650. If I didn't have two 70's Commanders, I would hop on that one. |

Nice gun! I wish I could find a vintage Commander that hasn't been hacked on!hinking.gif |
Like I said, there's a nice one locally that is a lot nicer than mine.  Check this out: www.arizonashooting.com/firearms/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3005 The other side looks nicer. I asked the guy to send me pics, and though he said there was a very faint takedown scratch, it's almost non existent. The gun really is 98%, and very nice. If I didn't have a few, I would be all over it. |
Too many project, too little time. The above Commander is pictured with another that's a work in progress. I'm in the process of checkering the top one's frontstrap. A refinish and some new grips will complete it. I have better plans for the stock Commander. Unfortunately it will have to wait, as I'm working on a friend's way cool Series 70 Govt.

Too late for me. I bought a S&W 1911 Sc last Saturday! |
