What would one buy a new Colt or Springfield, top of the line gun, and have a custom shop change out just about every part other than the frame.
Most alter the frame also rounding and removing material, from most surfaces and putting their own custom finish on it.
Why not instead, just purchase a frame and add the parts right from the beginning, instead of paying twice for the same part? For instance why change out a match grade barrel and hammer trigger. etc., instead of ordering all of the custom parts from Wilson Ed Brown and the rest, and fitting them to the frame.
It would seem redundant to pay for the same parts twice if it was not necessary. I only ask this because it seems from reading the build sheet of a few company's, they are discarding all of the original parts any how.
And how much accuracy do you really gain over a top of the line Colt, or Springfield?
I would imagine that only 1% or the top shooters would benefit from the difference between a 1,500 dollar TRP or Colt rail gun, and a 4000 dollar Wilson, or other custom shop gun.
Just asking an honest question, If you can afford something it is no ones business, I am asking if it makes a difference in the actual shooting for all but the top shooters.
