Love it. I just picked one up a couple weeks ago and it has quickly become my favorite. The round butt just feels the best in my hand. I did some IDPA practice for the first time the other day and all my shots were on target and my time was good. I may have to pick up a pair of VZ's after seeing yours. I don't have any experience with Cerakote. How does the finish hold up with regards to carrying. I carry mine in a supertuck.S&W 1911 E-Series bobtail.
Tungsten grey frame.
Graphite black slide.
VZ Operator slim grips.

I second that! You always want what you can't have.

Cerakote is a very durable finish. I carry in a comp Tac. You will always get some sort of holster wear on the high spots, but that's what adds character

Come see me
Dont forget about me!
Come see me
Bring some 556/223 and we will shoot up some long distance steel.
Plenty of 45acp and 9mm, so we can use all those nice 1911'$ you have.

You obviously have me mistaken for a nice person who is willing to give you ammo....I am willing to give you some ammo in exchange for $$$$.
and all of those nice 1911's are only happy if I am the one fondling and shooting them
Did you see it at Dave's shop?

Yes, that was my CQB Elite. Beautiful piece but the front site is too tall. Dropped that off along with the Ed Brown that will get new sites as well. Thought about having Dave fit the Wilson with a 38 super barrel but there is no brass , bullets or dies to be found anywhere right now.
I got 9mm, offer is still open. You bring the 556, I'll bring the 9.
I will take you up on the offer when it warms up a bit
If you shot 7.62x54R in Mosin-Nagant like true Russian, weather outside would be warm enough now, Capitalist.

I have been wanting one of these for some time Finally happened. Did you know stainless rusts 
After 6 hours of tapeing , glass beading and hand rubbing she's done.......except for maybe a grip change.

Awesome.
Stainless does rust but it'll take a lot longer unless it's in a high humidity area or near an ocean of something haha. That's a beauty for sure. That's a 1911 that gets passed down in the family.

F****in "A"!!!!!!! Sweeeeeet!!!!!!I have been wanting one of these for some time
Not yet but possibly I'll swing by tomorrow and get her dialed in. I'm not sure I like the short trigger, or the grips and may change them out and possibly add a magwell
Well then, I hope I see you at a range someday. That's on my bucket list. Congrats again.
