My stolen Wilson Combat came back...RUSTED! (cue "love shack")

Ever thought of securing your guns better?

Nah, I just leave then outside on the porch.

Are you going to send it back to Wilson?

Any updates?

The Bitch Is back and spruced up! I got her back a few weeks back. I had a local shop hit it with light media and repark it. Then I contacted wood caliber and got identical replacement grips. I ran 200 ball and 50 G Saber and she is fully back up to speed. He evened up the dents and swapped the front sight for a Gold Bead (the original was tritium and beat to crap.

Nice. Glad it's cleaned up. Parked is really a cool look. Give it a more serious business feel.

Looks great!

That looks spectacular parked.

It will look even better with holster wear. You will be putting some holster wear on that bad boy, I hope.

I’d be happy with that resurrection.
Well done.

She keeps getting better and better. Took her out today and wore out some plates with 200 rounds of white box. I did a whole bunch of Mozambique drills and just marveled at what a scalpal this beast is. I shot it with my G19 Gen 5 Mos and it reminded why I like my 1911s. The G19 is faster, especially split wise, but the 1911 is an almost guaranteed hit. Of course, my G19 has a factory staple gun trigger and the Wilson has a well-broken in 3 pound single action trigger!
