Flexmoney Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Is the colored C-more distracting? I have a black one on order and have been thinking of getting a red one. Anyone have experience with a red one? The thing that is distrating is when your stuff doesn't match. If you are going to get a color, then have it match your other stuff...shoes, mag pouches, base pads, magwell, grips...it's gotta match something. Don't you watch 'Queer Eye for the Shooter Guy' ??!!?? Oh...and red is a good color. Everybody knows that red is faster (zoom-zoom). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveU Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I just saw this one this afternoon at Chuck's. DAMN fine gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostein jensen Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 thanks Surge and Fomeister. I can't wait to get the baby home and try it! It pisses me off a tad that the exporter hadn't sent the FFL info when I told him to, because then it could have been on the way and not sitting in the shop. The only good thing it does there is let you guys see it, and rub it in my face that you've seen it and I dont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveU Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 How long does it take to ship from USA to Norway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostein jensen Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 I hope no longer than 4 weeks, due to Norwegian nationals 31st may, but it has to pass two of the largest bureaucracies on earth to get here. US and Norwegian customs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostein jensen Posted May 7, 2008 Author Share Posted May 7, 2008 (edited) being processed by Norwegian Customs A full report will follow with lots of photos when I get it and test it with 124gr MG's and 3N38.

TMFAKBFS Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 That's good news. When you have it, we want to see all the little details of that beautiful gun of yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ameiza Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 (edited) jostein, you should try VV N105 while your at it. Most of us Scandinavian open shooter use it. Even Bob at Brazos recommends it. OT: I'm waiting for some comp brass. Is it shipped yet? Edited May 13, 2008 by Ameiza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jostein jensen Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Been at the post office! Let me just start with OH MY HOW TIGHT THIS THING IS! I will never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever again buy a stock pistol. Was that too many evers? well, never ever! Even with the slide and frame new soaked in oil, its still hard to cycle, compared to the much sloppier Sti Edge I had. There is absolutely ZERO slide to frame play at the back, like every single 1911/2011 I've held has had. If this gun shoots as well as it seems to be built, I'm in for a new experience. And the trigger was soooo smooth and crisp. I'm glad I went with a long blank Sti. It's perfect length for me, and again, its just so darn crisp! The stippled grip is WAY better than what I expected. I've felt home-stipplings before, and you can really tell Dan has done a few of these! Even the front and forward half of the underside of the trigger guard is stippled, and I like it. And the sexiest little detail has to be the line cut down in the flat-top, that goes from the ejectionport and all the way through the comp. Did I say it was a lot tighter than a stock Edge???? I'm afraid to even fire it, because its seems difficult to keep oil in there! Bear with me if I'm a bit psyched here, but DARN! This thing cost me the same as a stock Trubor would have from the Norwegian dealer, and I can't believe it has a snowballs chance in hell to compare. I just snapped a couple of pictures free hand, I'll do some better ones with a cam-stand so avoid blurryness later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N105 is planned for testing, and I have shipped 1k supercomp to Trondheim, got the adress from Leo, posted saturday or sunday, don't remember which.
