I wholeheartedly agree. :patriot:

Here's a fresh pic of my CDP gun. She just got a new SVI hammer and sear.

I like that short rail operator! How much does it weigh with an empty magazine?

I got the grips from here: http://davidsonknives.com/grips/grips.htm

They're very grippy.

No new ones here but had the pics up so here is a refresher.
DoubleJ, that is not an idiot scratch. It is a character mark. You use them. They are not layed on a soft carpet shelf in the safe.

Nice pair LT. Can't go wrong with either of those beauties. :tiphat:


This is my Pro Carry II. I've made it as thin as possible with slim grips, Colt thumb safety and mag release. A lot of honest holster wear on her and she's pretty darn skinny. :mrgreen:

Mods on gun: Davidson grips, Colt Thumb safety. Colt mag release, Ed Brown grip safety, Wolff Springs, XS tritium front sight and Wilson 30 LPI MSH.

Other stuff: Surefire Exec Elite, CRKT ICHI, Wilson 47DB mags and Hornady TAP 230gr JHP.

Picked up new 1911 to feed my addiction :lol: . I haven't fired it yet, but I did strip it down today for a good once over including a clean and lube.

It's a Rock River Pro Carry...
