    Started out with a bone-stock FEG PJK-9HP I bought about 5 years ago at the LGS for $250. Glossy blue finish, black plastic grip panels, 7# trigger and God-awful hammer bite. Accuracy was acceptable though.

    Just got done with some Covid-induced tinkering that included C&S hammer, wide-face trigger and sear, removed the magazine cutoff, some time with a Cape chisel stippling it and some Al oxide 120g and KG Gunkote in flat OD and Coyote brown.

    Under $400 invested, including 4 17rd and 3 13rd mags. She now has a crisp 4# trigger and feels much more secure when shooting. Still get a little hammer bite, but nowhere near as bad. As a long-time 1911 shooter, this sure does feel pretty good for a 9.

    Looks great! You should put some black VZ grips on it (which I think would look great and match the slide). Nice job!
     
    I have one similar. $85 from an evidence auction. Added Heinie rear sight, Dawson front FO sight, stippled in a Covid moment. Same mods as yours but added the welded on magwell. I did everything but the magwell and sight cuts.
    I dont plan to blue or ceracote it. My gun version of a Rat Rod.......
