I'm quite impressed by the pic. What say you?
Of course it's wearing my july4th special VZ grips!

Very good looking weapon. I like the all business look.

Incredible difference in the two. Hard to believe it's the same pistol.

The 1911 in itself, in any form, is a beauty. The work performed on yours does make it a more attractive 1911. Kudos!

Back before Wesley Snipes, Charlie and Eddie Murphy were the blackest brothers around.

Congratulations on a well done 1911! Admittedly, the 45 hardball is a BIG bullet, but there's something about that pic that makes the ammo look ever bigger! Let us know how she shoots when you get the chance.
