I want something fancy! Show me yours

[boredelmo]

I almost bought a Norinco 1911 for about $400 just because it had trigger/hammer/misc parts gold plated. Black and gold really appealed to me.

Also, the regular table with all sorts of engraved and fancy 1911 slides looked nice.

What other gun have you fancied up? How much did your work cost? Do they wear (gold plating etc).

*edit: not fancy as in price or name of maker, but custom aesthetic elements.

I had a Colt Airweight Commander in .38 Super on which I had my four initials in Old English Script engraved and gold-filled on the slide:

"T T R N."

That was it.

I've often wanted to engrave ""My W'il Fwend," which I've been calling it for thirty-five years, on the slide of my .380.

But now, after carrying it around and shooting it all this time, it's no longer pretty enough to get engraved unless I reblued it.

Otherwise, nothing to brag about.

I set up my 10/22 with a green mountain ss bull barrel, bipod, custom built forgrip, scope and a butler creek folding stock. the scope has a flip up dust cover and a rubber eyepeace. it looks pretty awsome for shooting .22 lr.

Not really fancy, but personalized- my S&W 442 .38 Special with my name
DAN, in front of the numerlas~!

I like this AR lower. It's not mine, someone on ARFcom apparently wanted to prepare for zombie invasions with class. And a happy switch.

Browning guy that's a nice piece !

Browningguy that is the most beautiful CZ I have ever seen. Did you have someone who lives here in houston do the work, or is that a special factory job?

 

[browningguy]

That's the factory 30th Anniversary special they made. Check out the gunshow this weekend, they have gone up a little but you still find one for around $500 ocassionally.

Well it is factory Colt but it is about as fancy as I got.

My hardchromed Special Combat Government in Super .38 She shoots as good as she looks though I promise.
