You're giving away 1911's now? I'll go shoot with you!!!!!

It's true, I shoot with him quite a bit, now I have a 1911 with a sweet trigger..........and I'm a Glock guy?

this does not include refinishing though

The gun I'd have done is stainless

Wow.
You never cease to amaze me, dude.
Now I'm thinking about picking out a gun for you to do that to...

Have you thought about some ball cuts along the front strap? That might be a nice look.......might be for my next project...

Oh boy I have the perfect 1911 for that type of service. I think I will save my pennies and one day let Allen bud me a super gun.

You should! He doesn't even charge extra if you ambush him with a ninja hug that he never sees coming.
What a guy!
