I was scrambling so hard to get some work finished both for customers and guns for the SHOW that I didn't have time to get any pics taken beforehand. Thanks to my buddy Chuck, here are some pics of the gun with the Ghost Arrow serrations as they came to be called. Golfball treatment by Chuck Rogers.

That is a very nice looking gun. Are you going to offer the Ghost arrow serrations or was this done as a one off?

Just when I thought I had seen every type of top strap treatment (Cough ..Ned...Cough :wink: ), you come up with something entirely new. Very nice Sir, very nice. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I love that ghost arrow treatment! It's going to look great on my Hi Power!

It's about the most unique slide top treatment I've seen. You're going to get a BUNCH of orders for that little number.

I will let you folks know how it shoots. :lol:
My other 1911's are concerned, first by its awesome looks and how it shoots, they maybe getting a lot of rest in the safe. I feel fortunate and honored to have one of Don Williams pistols, especially this one.

She's a Beaut!!!!!!!!!!!!! crickey, now thats one pretty sheila, but remember shes really dangerous, and truly rare..........


I too am constantly amazed at the true artistry, ingenuity, and genius that comes from this group of talented and humble gunsmiths. I try to woodwork and make mostly sawdust, I tried some metal work ( no never on my pistols ) and made mostly metal shavings, so these men and their special powers are as rare as Michaelangelo, DaVinci, and Masamune ( first folded sword guy). This is truly art work that is functional and should be treasured for hundreds of years. Look at how the Katana is revered, and it has a maximum effective range of about arms lenght and 3 feet. I plan to acquire several over the next 30 years or so.
