Just thought I'd share some preliminary pics of this Colt. I just got it back from Ned Christianson yesterday - it was an old roll mark 1991A1 matte blue Commander. The gun was pretty much brand-new-in-the-box (even though an ORM) when I sent it to Ned a couple of months ago. And bone stock from the factory it was a great gun, very nicely fitted and stone reliable. A perfect candidate as a canvas for Ned's artistry.
Ned worked all over the gun from top to bottom... slide top serrated with a cross "X" motif which is repeated on the front strap and the bobtail MSH... the serrations extend up onto the grip safety pad too, which is cool. The carry bevel work is exquisite. There are a lot of great little touches all over the gun inside and out. Too much to elaborate on here. The gun is stone reliable, accurate, and feels superb in the hand. These pics are just quick shots so I could show the gun, but I plan to do a much better, more detailed photo session later. Here she is.
