    This would be pretty cool, especially using exhibition walnut. Should hold up just fine if not abused.

    Love the Colt Monitor. I'm not so sure about that wooden lower. I guess I'd figure the pins would continually loosen over years, and with major humidity changes. Perhaps an aluminum lower with spots for wooden inlays might preserve the longevity of metal while lending the old-school look.
