That was my retirement gun and Steve Morrison took it from that show to do the work. It is very similar to Military Moron's gun (no mag well on mine). It was a much better retirement gift than a stupid party where the admin guys who hated my guts say nice things and a big glass clock with my badge and service dates engraved on it that would have sat in a box on the floor of the garage.

    That sounds like a pistol I'd like to see...just something about the two-tone that always caught my eye. Got any pics? I've certainly read the article on your THUG - Steve's work is fantastic.

    I'm patiently waiting for the magazine mod thread, too. In the meantime, Bill, what is your opinion on the use of mag catches specifically designed to hold the mag higher in the frame (like the EGW)? Is .020" insignificant? Or does every little bit count, when the ultimate goal is to give the round a more direct path into the chamber?

    Silly boy. Don't you know that it's the magical stuff that GI extractors were made from?
