From Afganistan to Texas 1911 build.

[Greg Derr]

So I get a call from a fellow in Afganistan who wanted a custom 1911 for when he got home to Texas. He had a good list of wants and I filled in his blanks. The slide and frame are Caspian, barrel Kart. Trigger and hammer Caspian too. Ed Brown TS, mag release,slide stop. The grip safety is by STI.

nicely done

That's got to be one of the nicest 1911s I've seen. How did you get that ripple wavelike pattern on the slide and trigger?

Every time I open one of your threads I amazed at the details of your work.

I look forward to your next project.

Usually when I click on custom 1911 threads I'm a bit underwhelmed(i don't know a lot about them), but this gun is beautiful. Awesome job.

A work of art. Gorgeous. I've never seen Damascus steel used in a firearm. It looks fantastic.
