CCF Officer 2011

[Romad7]

Hello All,

 

My custom carry handgun from Tim Calhoun is finally done and ready for hard chrome.  Thanks to everyone that made inputs in my "is it worth it" thread, because of your help and recommendations I was able to find a gunsmith that does great work and without the ridiculous wait.

 

Here's the original thread, http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/64917-3875-1911-is-it-worth-it/

 

With the cost (I'm not saying how much but this is not a cheap way to go;-) involved, I wanted to make sure that I included every little thing that I wanted in a CCW.  I was going to do a .45 but I went with .40 instead to increase the capacity a little.

 

This gun is everything that I wanted the STI VIP to be.  True officer grip length, full dust cover, and available in all gray (all my guns are black so I wanted to do something different).  

 

Here's the specs:

 

3.97" Hybrid SVI barrel

SVI Slide tri-topped

STI Frame

Gray STI grip cut to officer length with officer MSH

120mm STI mag cut to officer length

This one is before he cut the mag, the VIP grip is slightly longer than a true officer length.
