Caspian XR and some custom touches

[ontarget1911]

Hi all,
Haven't been posting here for a while. I have been way too busy with life, getting a new shop building outfitted and running, and just working on pistols. Just thought I would post this one here as it is something really a bit different. It is based on the excellent Caspian XR kits pus some adds.
EGW ignition set
STI ti strut
Greider medium trigger
MARS lanyard loop mag well
22 LPI curved serrations on top of the slide
10-8 sights drilled for Trijicons
VZ John's Gatorbacks
Ed Brown mag release
Ed Brown ambi safety
Storm Lake barrel
carbonized rails for gall prevention
Front strap serrations removed and 25 LPI CNC checkering by EGW
4.5 lb trigger pull (of course it's crisp:) )
Underside of slide release serrated at 40 LPI
Rear of slide serrated at 40 LPI to match 10-8 serrations
Rear of slide slightly flattened for better target picture
60 degree target barrel crown
and so on.....here are the pics. Hope to have some more time to just come over and hang out now that things are slowing down a bit!

Your checkering work on the grip front strap and back is outstanding.

Thats slicker than a greased pig.

I hope it shoots as well as it looks.

Thanks guys. I have one more in the works that will be a bit different than this one and then another one waiting for a buyer. The nice thing is that I can build one of these pretty well built out and sell it for less than $1500.00. And it will be twice the gun the $900.00 GSR is :-)
