I like the texturing on the safety lever.

Be almost perfect for someone like me with one of those abbreviated southpaw side levers shown on the Kimbers in the Crimson Trace ads.

Superb, as usual, although I am not a fan of rails on 1911s.

This reminds me of the old Hot Rodders motto...

If a little is good, and more is better, then too much is just right.

Why a Springfield frame and slide? Caspian was back ordered?

 

[EHL]

Why a Springfield frame and slide?

Because Springfield Frame and Slides are great to build on. Besides, the fact that they're forged is a nice feature.

Wow. That EGW bushing and slide cuts make for a beefy presentation.

Move over Humvee.

 

[dom1104]

it looks ....... expensive.

I think you made a mistake and left a couple square inches of area that isn't golfballed, serrated, or grooved.

It looks space-age to me like some sort of laser gun or something. It's unique..that's for sure.
