Hey y'all this will be my first post here after lurking and reading the information on here which is great by the way. But i have a question I have been trying to find out for a little while. I am taking a pistol class sometime next year hopefully in april with Bob Rodgers and we will be starting from a caspian frame and slide. Now that got me to thinking since school starts back in August and I will be in the machine shop class and have access to lathes, mills, CNC machines (4 axis-5 axis etc) and the permission from the teacher to do my own project as long as i buy the metal. How hard would it be to make your own frame and slide the dimensions are easily found . But what about heat treating the frame,slide etc Now i"m curious because it would be amazing knowing I had a gun that was built specifically by me from a block of steel but Im not sure how they heat treat them cant really find any info on it I found one that said they only did certain parts of the gun but would really like to know how it is actually done. So if anyone can shine some light on it id appreciate it. And I do know that if its built like that its not meant to be sold i accept that and also money is not the issue. So any help would be appreciated thanks.
