I built this .40 S&W for my dad. Shoots well but it doesn't like hollow points yet. I still need to figure out if it's not linking down far enough or I need to massage the bottom lug some more. I decided that I don't like the funky trigger guard undercut Essex uses. Should have checkered it. Oh well... Storm Lake barrel and McCormick grip safety, and everything else is Ed Brown. Norrell's semi-gloss black on the frame.(Oops edit for spelling)

Lol. Nah, my Dad is like a squirrel in that he is attracted to shiny things. I started polishing all the stainless and it just sort of came together that way. I have taken some 1911 build courses and it was more an exercise in the machining and hand fitting for me. Rick |
