John, Carry Deluxe pretty pretty well covers it. That is one very cool Colt and razor sharpe as always.

That is a very elegant carry gun.

I got to see this one at John's shop and the pictures only hint at what it is. For example, one has to hold the pistol to appreciate the reshaped beavertail of the grip safety. That modification is the epitome of form following function.

John, Very elegant gun. I expect you're going to be even busier when you go full time, and justifiably so.

Just when I thought it was safe to peek, John slipped another one by me. I need to stop by his shop more often. He must have hidden this one really good.
Nice blaster.
