I put a new trigger in my Valor today as I just do not like the flat triggers. I also put a new one in the Night Hawk and a 1 piece FLGR as well.
Did a bit of polish/buff on a few bits in the night hawk.

Yeah I see that and it aint a 1911 either.

Today was a good day for sitting at the bench

Thats one of those special feats of engineering that cycle rounds loaded backwards in the magazine. Those Germans have it all figured out.

I saw this at the Gun Club and had to share it's a Cabot "Safari Special" chambered in 10mm the compensator on the end is damascus and it comes stock with the X300 and Trijicon SRO. That being said price of 9K so a bit out of my price range unfortunately

I just brought this home yesterday. I have done to tuning on it for the previous owner. It is very well fit up for out of the box.
This will be my winter project. More to come

Nice new project piece CM.
Looking forward to the time lapse of changes to this one.

I have a parkerized springfield loaded and I'd love to know what you have in plan for yours. I may have to follow along and copy. Mine has a loose front sight post and if it wasn't for the pin it'd have left the gun a long time ago.

Some of what I intend would ruin the Park finish on your gun. I am going to do a melt of some level on the gun to soften the sharp edges. The roll mars will be removed as SA is not modifying it I am so the bill boards are gone. There will be some machine work to pull this one out of the pack to stand alone. I have 2 Magwells that will be test fit and the winner gets to stay. The EGW thick barrel Bushing will be hand fit.
These are just a few things. If you see something you want to do feel free to PM and I will walk you through if possible.

I am still thinking about some of the other Mods and this received the Cylinder & Slide ignition from me a few years ago. The owner is a friend and I was relentless in my beating on him to pass it over to me.....
