Ed Who?

YIKES! Where's the purple in your statement? Must have purple!

no purple at all.
start buying bare parts, customize them Allen style. sell them at a reputable FFL, Bradis maybe?, and slowly but surely your custom pistol will make a name for themselves. they are already getting tons of attention on here.
i willing to bet their would be quite a few people on ingo that would love to have one of your custom pistols. i know i would. if i was not a broke aZZ.

As much as I would like to build pistols from scratch or parts kits and put my name on them, that requires different licensing and insurance that I am not willing to do.
I am only allowed to work on other people stuff, modify, customize, repair etc.
If someone buys a Frame and slide or a build kit I can build it for them but I am not licensed as a manufacture. My ego would like that but it's not going to happen.

I would be very interested in a 10mm version, or hell maybe a .38 super. Now to start looking for parts!

That is truly a beautiful piece of functioning artwork.

Wow! That looks great. Nice work. I need to start buying parts.

Most excellent!

You, sir, are an artist.

I haven't decided on that yet but I am building a colt up for bulllseye shooting that has made it to the top of my to do list.

I want a 357Sig/40S&W 1911!!! Any ideas for me?

You were tinkering with this when I was at the shop....man that is a sweet gun.
No comment on shooting with an erection....I could do way to much with that and the ban hammer may come into play...............

I want one of those.

Beautiful job. Very nice work. I need a "project" gun like that.

I have built 1911's in both calibers. The 40 didn't really make me overly impressed. The 367 Sig on the other hand turned out to be what in my opinion was an ideal cartridge for the 1911 platform.

I can set a gun up to shoot both though if you want. Be glad too

I agree, you do need a project gun

That's what I'd love to have. I really like the .357 Sig round and I REALLY like your work.

Beautiful display of craftsmanship. No man is able to perform work like this without integrity, a passion for the subject matter and a highly developed understanding of the tools and techniques involved. If you have kids, then you have an wonderful legacy to pass along to them.

Thanks for sharing it with us.
