I received it yesterday and it is even more than I expected. Just had to share my excitement. Unfortunately I won't be able to shoot it until Friday.

Thanks, in case you can't tell, I'm pretty proud of it.    I believe he said the mags are Tripp Research.  I will be buying those and Chip McCormick.

Here's another pic.  I will post more and a range report after Friday when I get a chance to shoot it.

I love the case coloring.  You rarely see that outside of shotguns.  (and Doug Turnball is the best)

WEAR GLOVES
Sweat destroys case coloring.

Look on a high end shotgun sight on how to protect it.  (different types of lacquer finish)

VERY FREAKING NICE.

I'd like to thank all you guys for the compliments and kind words.  

I can't wait to take it to the range next weekend and put it through its paces.  If I still lived in the country where I had my own range I would probably need a new barrel by now.  haha  It kind of sucks not being able to walk out my back door and shoot.

Jason and I talked about doing that, however, I was afraid that it would be too much and possibly detract from the frame.  I've already started saving up to get my next one, a Custom Classic in 38 Super.  I might think about asking him what he would think about having just the small parts case hardened.  Not quite sure what that would look like though.  Might be pretty cool.

I have all sorts of handguns. However, when you draw your Glock on the line you are holding a fine firearm true, but it is nothing special. Alas but when I am on the line and draw my finely tuned, unique, old school, one of a kind, accurate, hard hitting 1911; and then use it to swiftly punch a hole no larger than a nickle at 15 yards there is no better feeling. I like my guns to have personality, and I truly appreciate fine works of art.

Congrats..and go get one to shoot.

Oh my lord, that's is an atrocious fucking typeface.  

You'd think with such tasteful custom pistols, they'd have a finer grasp of what's acceptable typography than that.  May as well be fucking Comic Sans.  

I'm actually 100% dead serious.

Excellent looking pistol, though!  I just had nothing else to add other than additional praise!

+1.  In addition to being gorgeous this one has a personality and was born with a soul...
