mpolans Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Here is the completed gun I built for my Junior(11) shooter. It is an STI frame with a 6" STI slide and a 6" Scheumann TryBrid barrel in 9mm. I love the feel and weight of this gun and if I build another open for myself, it will be exactly this configuration. The gun tracks great, and the popel holes/comp do an amazing job keeping the muzzle down. Works flawlessly with minor or major loads. Thanks to SPRINGCO for the recoil reducer, it really helped to make this gun shootable for my son. Plate-Tacular did the finish and Daniel met all my hopes, the gun is beautiful. I did the machine work on the slide myself. Only thing I might do now is try a frame mount for the Leupold Deltapoint That looks awesome! What type of finish was is that? With the different colors, about how much did it run? How well does the finish wear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmantwo Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) The finish is Duracoat. Daniel charges $150 for a pistol and can do about any color. This is my first experience with it, but it's supposed to be pretty durable. Edited December 12, 2012 by gmantwo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMH Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Actually it's Cerakote. Great stuff if you want special colors. Thanks Greg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Sierpina Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Actually it's Cerakote. Great stuff if you want special colors. Thanks Greg! Daniel, Are you only doing this type of finish, or do you still do the cobalt chrome? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmantwo Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 A little off the norm, but it is an open gun. My sons open Long Range pistol for the Long Range event at the Masters. The Juniors shoot 6 & 9" plates out to 100 meters, freestyle. This is also my practice gun for the Long Range event, much cheaper ammo. It is built on a Ruger Charger, with a Tac Sol barrel and brake. The trigger uses a cantilever system and pull is right around 8-10 oz. It will shoot into 1" at 100 meters. The paint is '90 Corvette Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
