Bakerjd Posted June 23, 2021 Share Posted June 23, 2021 These are the pics almost right before it was sent off for coating. I'm pretty excited. It also has a limited major and limited minor uppers. Specs are Cheely XWF open frame, brazos slide, KKM sight tracker 4.6 threaded barrel, SV steel comp, LSI grip, evil hands thumb rest, EGW thumb safetys, EGW trigger parts, geppert trigger. I think I had it done in all black DLC but honestly cant remeber. That will be the suprise. Lol. I'm pretty excited to run it next season. Gonna be quite the difference going from SS to open.

Yes it was! I've known Dan through facebook on a couple Para pages for a long time. And always loved his work. Then seen your and your wifes guns and had to get one. And yes more pics on the Instagram and facebook pages. I don't have either so I cant share them here till i pick it up. @yigal always the joker. But yes final finished gun has front grip screw and bushing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan said to start about 8gn of WAC and a 124gn bullet. 8 grains of Auto Comp and a 124 will potentially hurt. The most common load of Auto Comp and a 124 JHP is usually around 6.8-7.0 grains. Auto comp can get pressure spikey pretty quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bdh821 Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Curious as to why you didn’t get a right side magazine catch since you’d have that option with a LSI grip? Thank you for using a EH thumb rest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for using a EH thumb rest! I am so used to the standard mag release since I have always had to conform to it I just stuck with it. I've tried swapping it on other guns and i still have to break my grip to hit it. And yes the EH thumb rest is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already slow with iron sights. Maybe since it is a charity match they could just video me shooting and the kids would all have a good laugh.
