Looks great - details on the gun, & parts used?  The base gun is an older FN HP that I picked up in a trade. Great gun, I just couldn't shoot it with the factory hammer/tang setup. It has a new C&S Hammer, sear, safety, slide stop, trigger, and Novak low profile rear and front blank (that was later profiled). You would think that with all the C&S parts they would have built it  ; I did the build myself (with the exception of some touchups to the weld). I used C&S and Heirloom for inspiration on the shaping of the beavertail, which is kinda tricky to get right.
Stipped the top of the slide for anti-glare, then texture stippled the front and backstraps of the frame. Border cuts on the slide, feed ramp re-shape, extractor tuning, carry trigger job, etc. It shot great (the few times I was able to do it without getting bit), so I decided to not dick with the barrel or slide/frame fit. |

You are either one of the handiest people around or a gunsmith by trade because that looks fantastic!!! Hopefully! I graduate in just over two weeks. I've got resumes galore sent out now,so we'll see. Include a pic of you BHP with the resume.  For sure!!!! That is awesome. This is the very first old one with internal extractor I've seen upgraded to this extent. Very very very nice. |
