bryanZ06, Did Bruce Gray build your Delta Elite from a new Delta Elite he acquired and later you bought it from him, or did you buy a new stock Delta Elite and then sent it in to him to have the beavertail, sights, hammer, trigger, etc. installed on it (custom work performed as well)?Bruce did a wonderful job on that Delta Elite of yours.
I bought it right after they were re-issued. I shot it a few times in the stock configuration and then sent it off for a few minor things, but it ended up becoming quite the major project.
