Colt38-1.jpgColt38-2.jpg
My Colt .38 super. It gets used as it should, often. Modifications: extended mag release, Dawson FO front, 10-8 NM rear, polish and lightly throated barrel, mag well opened up a bit, Harrison thumb safety, Magpull TSP grips [post picture], Wilson flat wire recoil spring [13lb], light bevel of sharp Colt edges and refinish black ceracote.
What's up with the end of the barrel? Reminds me of this one--

Just carbon from shooting it, 600 rounds so far without cleaning or lube. I took the picture at the range, it was still hot from a few drills.
I see it now. Thought I was seeing spanner holes.
Not a 1911 by strict measurements but I hope you'll forgive me and accept a pic of my range toy:

That’s one I did for a guy on 2008. That is a protector for when the can is not in use; hadda make a special adaptor.
Red-dot sight mounted directly to the suppressor, a dummy can in this case but the owner did put the real thing on it. Crappy pic, but:

Osage Orange it is. A most-butt-kicking wood in several ways. Burns like the fires of hell in the wood stove, and is one of the toughest and most durable woods found in the US. Probably stacks up as well world-wide although I'm no woodologist.
