Forgive my exuberance, but this gun has turned out better than I could have imagined. 3 months ago I came here and asked for assistance to find my first 1911 to become my full-time carry gun. Many thanks to pulpsmack for his advice which led me to my Colt S70 (I got a good one  ) Following his advice and others here, I saved and planned, then went off to see the good folks at Yost-Bonitz. Well, she got back today with the 1* Enhanced and a couple extras, polished slide flats and gold in-lay front sight blade. After a couple hours of just admiring the work done by Yobo, it was off to the range. I couldn't be happier with the advice I got here or the work done by Yost-Bonitz! Thanks to everyone for your help, espeacially puplsmack and Jason Burton  Here she is.........     |
Damn beat me to it! I was going to say to get rid of those grips made of pine bark... Im having these put on my Colt S70 Repro right now which is at the smiths as I write this. They are Chris Spegel S++ grade Kingwoods...  View the rest of his offerings HERE |

Congratualtions
Are you having *1 package done? Those typically do not take as long. |
If you ever get a chance to even meet Jason or Ted, you should. Got a chance to shoot with them for a bit a couple of months ago, both guys are a class act. Very nice, extremely polite and just good all around gentlemen. As is Chuck Rogers, who I have not had the pleasure of meeting, but we've discussed a topic or two over IM and he is another great guy in my book. |
Couldn't agree more! They both made me feel like my project was important. From the very first phone calls with questions, to a visit at the shop, to dropping the gun for work and final delivery. Great guys, great work, truly good people to work with. |
