surfmaster Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nice looking gun by Gans. What type of comp is that? Thanks in advance. GANS shorty 9 major! I did the DIY parkerizing using LCW solution. Way easier than I thought, and love the stealth bomber look.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTrout40 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks! Gary made the comp per my design. I may cut the last bleeder off and just use the 4 up ports. It works a little too well.

donnyglock Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Now thats some bad ass bling!!!! I like the Gans shorty as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooldylocks Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) I love the matte black parked finish on that Gans. I agree with you Mtrout, the stealth look is sweet! ::ETA:: Does it have the same rough texture to it like an AR does? And if so, does that effect how tight the slide/frame fit is?

FearsomeCritter Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 One of the recent batch from Freedom Gunworks. Really happy with how this one came out. Just crossing my fingers the RTS2 doesn't give me a headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desmo412 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I'm glad to see some others going with the chameleon finish! I had my FGW open gun done a few years back and it still gets a lot of attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTrout40 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I love the matte black parked finish on that Gans. I agree with you Mtrout, the stealth look is sweet! ::ETA:: Does it have the same rough texture to it like an AR does? And if so, does that effect how tight the slide/frame fit is? It's only as rough as the blasting media used in the steel. I did the slide stop and beaver tail and they are smooth. The slide needed "forced" on to the frame, but a couple racks by hand loosened it right back to the original fit. So far this is a really tough finish better than any spray on I've seen. Hard to believe it was so easy and $45 in material, and has many many more uses down the road. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Here is the latest iteration of my Cheely 9MAJOR. New slide needed chromed so I sent it off to APW for their brushed finish. Grip painted US Army Colors(more or less). The slide to frame fit is considerably tighter so I need to get busy shooting it to ring it out. I kind of like it!

Revofan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 38 Super built by EGW 45ACP who makes that 1911 frame with finger groove and glock like trigger guard ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboy69 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) That is an old custom Caspian frame and slide. I believe he just welded onto the trigger guard the shaped it. The gun was originally built for pin shooting about 23-25 yrs ago. it has some upgrades. All the internals and everything were upgraded to EGW parts.

Guest Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Safari Arms had .45 frames that look just like that from the factory. I think Caspian made them for Safari Arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intel6 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Yep, same frame sold by Safari Arms because of the hook on the front of the trigger guard and the raised pad of checkering on the front strap. I built a consecutive serial # pair of them back in the 80's and that frame is the same thing I used but it was marked Safari Arms.
