That is one good lookin rig Ping. I have an HF1 on the table & Rob said it should be here the end of January. Holster only. I could not affor the belt & mag holder.:redface:
Man I like that Black Cherry.

Bud, how do you like that Ray skin holster? I keep telling myself I should get one....

Great holster and i Cant believe you sold that Jerry

Nice rigs guys.

Don't ask me abut the colt though.
(Don't ask me about the 10mm cbob either)

What's up with that Jerry? Nice lookin' pistol though.:wink:

I sold both of them. I said when I sold the cbob, as I was getting rid of my 10mm's, I was getting one in .45 and I will probably still do that. The colt I had a moment of weakness, sold it and regret it. I am now thinking another of those. Both of them were real sweet.

I use the Govt XSE for my SS gun in USPSA. Several mods though. Wilson Ambi and Beavertail, Schuemann barell, SV trigger, etc.
Shoots like a dream. Ya gotta get another XSE!

Yep, if you notice in the pic's above mine had a bunch of mods. Wilson grip safety and thumb safety, EGW thick carry bevel bushing and thick plug, ed brown gi guide rod and bobtail housing, Greider short trigger and hard chrome job. I did everything escept the hard chrome job myself.

Yep, looks better.

Mine was a lightweight and the frame had to be redone after bobtailing so I went with hard chrome. It makes the alloy tougher than stainless on the surface and I doubt I will ever have an alloy frame finished in anything else. The ramp became tougher and polished up better than stainless. Also, a stainless slide looks bad next to a hard chrome frame so it all got done. If I get another xse lightweight it will absolutely be hard chromed.

If it was a stainless frame I may not have had it done. The bead blasted areas scratched when I looked at them though and it was nice not worrying about it after it was hard chromed. I would have to decide I guess, definitely with a bobtailed ally frame though.

Nice looking rig you got there Swinkster! Interesting front strap job on the gun too. Fill us in on that.

Let me also welcome you to the most laid back 1911 forum on the net.

Thank you for the welcome.

That holster up for auction was actually how I found my way to this site. Eric has it up on his website and references 1911auto.org so I thought I'd pop in and have a look see. :wavey:.
