Very nice. What's the advantage of the flat trigger?

All of these are flat out perfect.

Thanks guys. I have become a convert for flat triggers with a high hand grip. To me they seem much more comfortable and smoother on the pull. I do build some with medium and short length curved triggers.

This has been a year long work in progress. I made quite a few parts in house to include the unique DAMASTEEL reverse recoil plug as well as the sights and, of course, the grips. The grips are something special, I looked for two years for a piece of marbled carbon fiber big enough to do grips, found a piece and these were the result. I will NOT do another set!
The slide is of course Caspian, machined from Swedish DAMASTEEL. This was received flat topped, but I have always liked the look of the raised rib on the old gold cups, so, measured, laid it out and cut the rib into the top. Used my standard three pattern Ball end mill cuts in the slide, serrated the rear at 50LPI, and machined a Marvel disco cut in the rail. the slide is mated to a Titanium officer frame, fit up by me and then carbidized again by me. This is the 6th titanium build I have done. The front starp was done by the guys at Alchemy, I love the look and feel of the old Pachmayer front strap. I high cut and blended under the trigger guard as well. butt was rounded and stippled, the mag well was opened up a bit and blended. I milled the front of the trigger guard and serrated at 40LPI. the MSH is an ED Brown flat, that was blended, internally lightened (that was fun) and serrated at 30 LPI. The barrel is a Wilson Combat that was cut back, not quite flush, then recrowned at 11 degrees, the hood has a nice no gap hard fit. The beavertail and hammer are also Wilson, concealment style...I love that BT Safety! well done WC! The pad was ball milled and stippled. The trigger was lightened ala Chuck Rogers style, holes in the bow. Ignition parts are EGW as is the mag catch witch was cratered and given a Cats Tongue texture. Slide stop is a 10-8 gen 2 that I gave a stepping stone look to. The thumb safety is a Novak that I reprofiled to give a slimmer feel. Lastly are the sights. As usual I cut these from 4140 barstock and blended to the slide, went extra wid at the base for a near seamless press fit, no set screws here. U notch rear and 10K gold bead front. A few other details, but all in all...I'm happy. Ladies and gents I present my new carry gun! |
