Flyin40 Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 (edited) Just received this gun back today from Tripp. I love how it turned out. Now just have to get to the range. This is a Unique slide and a long dustcover. All the work to the gun was done by Gans except the hardchroming. Flyin40 Edited February 24, 2006 by Flyin40
Loves2Shoot Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Nice, not pimp until you break out the polishing wheel Now that would be pimp, mirror chrome finish on that beauty.
Flyin40 Posted February 24, 2006 Author Posted February 24, 2006 I thought about adding that but I like the flat Satin finish. I had to call Tripp back to make sure they didn't brush the chrome at all. Well if it doesn't qualify as a Pimp gun thats ok. I guess I'll just have to settle as a wannabe pimp. I can live with that.

Hey QuicksDraw! Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Hang some fuzzy under the trigger guard and your in full pimp mode.
Middle Man Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Such aesthete approaches to metal sculpting when making the slide and frame lighter are exceptionally pleasing. Indeed, very nice...
tightloop Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Nice but not pimp..you need some bling...
Tzygä Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 Nice but not pimp.. +1 But it is really REALLY NICE
Flexmoney Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 What??? Not a pimp gun? What you guys fail to realize is that John often shoots wearing a spiffy hat ...a feather boa...and, shoes by Disco Stu.

blackdragon Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 By my standards ( I know.... Low) Pretty close to PIMP GUN. Ivan PS I have a Freddy Craig limited gun that is a PIMP GUN!!!! Ivan

Flyin40 I hope we can make it over to C'ville this year. The two matches I've shot there were great. I hear that the OH sectional may not be there this year....that really sucks because you guys did a GREAT job! Hopfully it works out that we can get out there for a monthly match or two. Otherwise, I'll see you in PA for a few... MT
Steve Moneypenny Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Sweet looking gun buddy! ... but not quite pimp
Flyin40 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 Shot my first match with the gun after hardchroming. I was able to put some rounds through it to break it in after I got it back. It performed perfectly at the match, I just didn't shoot it very well. Very Happy with Tripp Research...... Flyin40
