This Colt came to me about 40% done, my client bought it and a box of parts from a deceased gunsmith’s estate. I told him to send it and I would see if it was worth saving/finishing. Well, this gun had been equipped with accurails, the Clark barrel and bushing expertly fit, the slide flatsContinue reading “60% KGB Customs Colt”

The Punisher 1989
There have been three big-screen adaptions, a backdoor pilot (Daredevil Season 2), and two full Netflix seasons dedicated to, in my opinion, the greatest comic book vigilante ever created. Unfortunately all but one of these live-action attempts are complete failures. The one that pulled it off the closest is the one most normal fans crapContinue reading “The Punisher 1989”
FACE/OFF Is 25 Years Old
Today’s movie post isn’t by me but from one of the other fellows over at Last Movie Outpost As we look forward to The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent heralding the return of Nicholas Cage to prime time, big-ticket movies from his tax debt-clearing stint in direct-to-streaming movies, we remember another time. It was aContinue reading “FACE/OFF Is 25 Years Old”
Custom Trapper Gun Shop Colt Gov Model
Trapper Gun Shop — Fraser Michigan, an old name, better known perhaps for their work on S&W Automatics, this 1977 Colt Government model is one of a few you will find with Trapper scrawled on the underside of the slide.

The Slide had such nicely machined Stirrup cuts (rare to find on most old Colts I work on) and they lined up to the frameContinue reading “KGB Customs Colt 10MM Delta Elite”
My Search for a Hammer Fired EDC
Today we have this guest post from our pal over at Pro-Gun Millennial I’ve been carrying a striker-fired 9mm for about 8 years now, and I think I’m ready to move on. First, a little background: There are four kinds of semiauto pistols: Striker fired, Double Action Only, Double/Single Action, and Single Action Only. OnlyContinue reading “My Search for a Hammer Fired EDC”
Brad Halling’s Delta Force 1911
Very Cool. It also restates my long held and often stated dislike for “hard fit” 1911s for carry and combat. Any pistol fitted to the tightness of 1911s like this would have trouble in dirty environments but, at the time it was thought a 1911 had to be hard fit for accuracy. The irony isContinue reading “Brad Halling’s Delta Force 1911”
Jim Garthwaite Custom Colt 1911
pistol_purview Colt 70 series 1911 comp gun chambered in 45 ACP by master smith Jim Garthwaite…the gentle giant. All the boxes are checked here — low mount Bomar, hard fit Barsto, hand checkering for days, French borders, lowered and flared ejection port, lustrous blueing— I could go on and on. Grips by Craig Spegel, becauseContinue reading “Jim Garthwaite Custom Colt 1911”
