</div></div>
I still have one I bought in 1981 for $371 out the door.
Prices sure have changed. Local gunsmith tells me from 70's on GC quality went down.
This one all the oem parts where trashed, even the adjustable sights.
here's a run down on the work.
Frame mill work top of slide and sides of slide Hammer: Titianum Sear: Titianum Grip Safety: High Ride Beavertail Ejector: Tactical Extended Ejector Thumb Safety: Ambidextrous Safety Trigger: light weight 2# carry. Feed Ramp: Polish Magazine Release: Extended Tactical. Not in pic but is included. Checkering: Frontstrap - High Cut 30LPI Grips: Genuine Cocobolo Grips , Ivory available extra.
Slide Assembly
Sights: Wichita adjustable. Extractor: Polish and Adjusted Ejection Port: Lower & Flare Back Guide Rod: Full Length two piece w/Reverse Plug. This type is required to disassemble the barrel from the slide with this type of comp. Springs: Wilson set match. Barrel: Polished & Throated handfit Compensator:Schuemann 5 port Fitting: Custom Fit Slide/Frame Rails Checkering: Back of Slide 20LPI Finish: Super High Polish Blue. Not found on production factory gun and hard to find custom pistols with this grade of bluing due to labor intensive man hours involved.
some people don't like Titianum as they wear out quicker. But in the mean time Titianum gives some quick lock up time and makes getting 10 shots off under 2 seconds easy.
Looks good, but that comp is a no go for night time. I think that was teh reason Springfield went with ten holes to each side of the .45's they made labeled as V-Comps
