I like the all black look on your 10-8. Those signature grips are hard to find.

I look fwd to the final mods on your NH!

eBay! I set a notification for "10-8 1911" so anytime that comes up in a listing I get notified. I really wanted the super scoop version, to aid reach of my dwarf like thumbs, but these popped up and I wasn't going to let them escape. Sometimes after a few drinks I think about taking the Dremel to them for a diy scoop, but luckily haven't been that dumb.

I had a set, to include a green and black with the scoop and another pair. My friend bought them all because they felt too thin for me. I should have kept the Signature pair.

thanks for the info.

While I don't have WC, I do have a alloy frame DW Commander Valkyrie in 9mm. It is very easy to shoot and carry all day long.

I have no assatol since loosing weight. I could make western cartoons, drawing as my pants fall down. No hips, no ass. LOLOL

Cearkoted Ol' Faithful - my 23 year old SA 1911-A1 G.I., that I bought new 23 years ago. Then I updated all the controls in stainless.

BEFORE:




NOW:





Nighthawk trigger, Fusion hammer, Wilson backstrap, grip safety, ambi-safety, mag release & extended slide stop, Pachmayer grips, and Precision Tooling comp.

New carry gun experiment.
Alloy frame 9mm DW Vigil. 1/2 lb. lighter than steel frame gun has been easier to carry with summer clothing.
A trigger job and general slicking up of internals gives a 3.25# trigger.
Gun is accurate and shoots to sights/POA.





HST 124 gr. +P @ 25 yds. benched (dial in).

LOL A good shooting buddy is the same. I think that’s how apendix carry came to be. He loves the A carry. I know my boiler
isn’t tolerating appendix carry.

Oh No A carry. All my weight is barrel chest and belly even though I have lost 70lbs. Both hips replaced I can't wear IWB at 3-4 oclock. OWB at 3-4 or OWB crossdraw only on the appendix side. S&W J frame in a DM Bullard crossdraw, shirt drapes right over the roundbutt. I have not bout one for my Shield yet to try it. I used to Mexican carry appendix when I worked dope.

That looks so damn nice and clean. No clutter, K.I.S.S. Thumbs UP Sir.

Thank you.
It is certainly minimalist and nothing extraordinary, but I’m confident with it.
It has proven exceptionally accurate and completely reliable through a couple K rds.
