Colt Commander, but the only Colt parts remaining are the frame, slide, barrel, and bushing. Mahovsky Metalife hard-chrome all over (plus some skateboard tape and a pair of Herretts).

Well, you may be a man. You may be a leprechaun. Only one thing’s for sure… you’re in the wrong basement.
New bowling pin match gun in .50 GI.
275 gr JHP at 875 fps. Yee-haw!
I shot pins in league for a few years back in the 80s. This would be a hoot for that - please start a thread about your experiences!Originally Posted by Exiledviking

Late 1918 WWI all original parkerized black army model

Randall LeMay (probably one of the approximately 225 that was assembled from parts after the company when belly up due to lack of LeMay 4 star stamping on the slide. The square trigger guard was unique to the Lemay models though)
Para Carry 1911, I called it my "jamomatic" and sold it. Mistake! My fault, learned I was bumping the safety with my thumb. Like to have that one back. Great shooter.

My RO Elite after it's return from C&H.
Direct milling for the RMRcc.
Solved the no rear sight issue with PMM drop in for the Trijicon. It's a rear sight assembly that installs around the emitter.
After sight-in of the irons, I'm 1" high. According to Dawson's calculator, I have to go one size taller, to a .180 to bring the impact to POA. The red/orange fiber I liked so much on this pistol unfortunately has to go, as 2 red dots in the window is a bit confusing. I'm gonna put a Dawson tritium front in it's place.

Very nice!

I'm glad there's someone else who remembers when pin shooting was a thing.

Beware of my temper, and the dog that I've found...
I've shot pin matches, and stake cutting matches.
The stake match is a 2x4 hammered into the ground, and on the mark, you and your partner fire at the stake until it is cut in half. All under time of course.
There were categories for autos revolvers and 22s.
"... And miles to go before I sleep".
Those look amazing.
Dude! The wearing on that slide is gorgeous!!
