TheOtherErik Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 b/c the slide on your gun is the same as his? and or you two use the same configuration standard frames and slides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGlock36 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Well the final guess that I can giveis, It is just a cool lookin gun. Lots of things make it this and not one specific trait. If not that then I guess I give up on the slide glide lol. Well let us know soon. This is gonna kill me. LOL Happy Shooting Paul Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradC Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 My guess: Looking at the gun proves that dryfire works! That gun shows why Travis has a _PERFECT_ reload. BradC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcoliver Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 You like it because the barrel is no bull?...I mean, it looks like there's a bushing in it... And btw, is that tig weld running along the recoil spring tunnel on the slide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rufus The Bum Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Looks like he has one of those Old School Caspian frames that everyone hates. Nothing else out of the ordinary that I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shooter Grrl Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 You like the pings, dents and rubbed parts of the magwell. You like the little square of skateboard tape for racking. AND you like that he added grip panels that don't fit right and then there's tape added to the front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricW Posted March 1, 2004 Author Share Posted March 1, 2004 My guess: Looking at the gun proves that dryfire works! That gun shows why Travis has a _PERFECT_ reload.BradC DING DING DING!!!!!! We have a winner! You guessed it kind of in reverse, but I'll take it. Travis' gun is remarkable because if you saw Travis with that gun holstered at a match, you would not need to know anything about Travis Tomasie to immediately know he was a contender. One look in that magwell tells you that 99.95% of all of Travis' reloads are all net. Most people's magwells kind of have the dings sort of randomly distributed around. Virtually all of the wear in Travis' magwell is right on the seam, probably from the mag going in and out so much, not from a lot of missed reloads. I think we all get a little too worried about having a pretty gun. I found it pretty remarkable that a gun could be such a mirror on someone's talent level. ===================================== Brad, PM me with your pertinent info and what weight Slide Glide suits your fancy, and I'll try to get some on it's way to you early this week. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for what I like to call some mental stimulation. Happy shooting. Paul Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Boit Posted March 25, 2004 Share Posted March 25, 2004 I would have said because the rear sight is still there, but that's not the reason You're right EricW, that clearly shows TT reloading skills, when I look at my magwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_T Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Hey guys, Randy just sent me this thread and I wanted to thank you all for such kind words! I really don’t deserve any of that, but it was really nice of you. Well, since my Caspian Fantom won the Point Series, I treated my buddy to a new finish (can you believe it's the same gun?): EricW, I just got it back and now I need to install my Tru Grit for traction. Thanks again everybody, TT GO ARMY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diehli Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 For anyone who doesn't know what it's supposed to look like, it's supposed to look like carbon fiber. Black paint topped by silver paint in a pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikW Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 A carbon-fiber gun! It must weigh under 10 ounces! OK, something as cool as that needs credit where credit is due. Who did the finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Meek Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Travis, Cool Gun.... That baby is almost to pretty to shoot, it should be on display at an art show. Good luck in 2005 Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_T Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Thanks a million guys! I think a carbon fiber finish is very untraditional so it's probably not for everybody. Cullen, good call! You must be a fellow car nut The finish is a process called hydrographics by Dura Coat. He can do a matte or high gloss finish (mine is matte), and also Real Tree camo. He had about a dozen scatterguns done in Real Tree and some Glocks in that finish as well, but the Benelli in carbon fiber was me. Here’s a pic that maybe shows the detail better, but I probably need a newer digicam: His shop is local to me so if anybody is interested I’ll get his number and contact information. Thank you for the kind words gentlemen. TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
