I see what you are saying and definitely know what you mean as that's what the Colonel did, bobbing his full sized frame & msh. In that project I was talking about, the maker started with a CCO, just nibbled a tad from the lower corner of the frame below the pin, then continued that angle into the msh. Much less dramatic than a full bob like the Colonel did, but a nice touch I do believe.Quote:

Ah now I see. And I agree. It is a nice touch!
BTW Bird, have you looked at the Tisas Tank Commander? The newer one, and not the Tanker. At a bit over $400 it looks like a bargain. There's a lot to work with there if you're looking to experiment and learn. Not stainless, but hey black guns are cool too. :) I've liked every one of my Tisas guns, and I think they're the best value for the buck out there still.

The guy mentions he only moves the MSH pin when he bobtails. So he didn't consider this a bobtail. It's kind of a start and I kind of like it. About all one can do with the officer size frame. Take a lot of contemplation to throw that corner on the grinder, course taking the hacksaw to the whole corner is not for the faint of heart neither. I can only imagine machinist with their mills and cutting dovetails or threading tiny screws for red dots and such. Bet they pray alot.Quote:

I may have to be patient, do some hunting around and lay out a solid plan. If I can get decent priced used one’s (without shipping fees, transfer fees, etc) I may be able to get what I want (officer and commander) then sell off the un used stuff to fund cool parts. I’m a frugal wheeler dealer. ;)Quote:

I would love to have access (and the skills/knowledge) to their equipment. I’d be making all kinds of stuff.Quote:

Dang it man! I got rid of mine (after hunting, hunting, hunting for a year to get it) because the trigger kept pinching me. Yours is so darn great looking though. Really makes me want to get one and copy you.
Cajun gun works has their combat trigger which doesn’t pinch. Now you can start hunting again….:rolleyes:Quote:

I don't care for the smaller slides on CZ's after having Sigs. Harder to rack slide back for me.
