Bunch of Pistols.

Shooter45 · 06-23-2005, 02:28 PM

Don, those are some fine looking guns. I really like the Norinco 1911 and the Custom S&W 686.

I like the Colt Gold Cup that Al built but didn't get to shoot it much the day we picked it up. How's it shooting after break in ?

tuckerd1 · 06-23-2005, 03:00 PM

LMAO Sam! The Gold Cup is still not broke in! The move to N. Alabam in 2002 has really set me behind in the shooting category! All I do is work when I'm off from work! Now that sounds dumb dont it?!

Now the Norinco I bought from you is now in my oldest son's hands. He loves it. I bought a 3rd Norinco that I gave to my youngest son. I need to send that on to Al for a look see. It is a little rough action/trigger wise. I just dont have time to do it myself.

Is Al still doing custom work? I have a job for him. Was thinking about you & Al yesterday.

Shooter45 · 06-23-2005, 03:55 PM

Don, Al is still alive and well and doing some great work. As always, he is ready for a new project. He got into cowboy action shooting last year and doing some fantistic single action revolver work. I got to shoot a couple of revolvers he had just completed. In a word.......NICE.

Give him a call or send him an email.

BTW, you need to get out to shoot more.

very nice guns

Shooter45 · 06-25-2005, 08:43 AM

This pic is of an auto ordnance 1911 that I did a little accuracy work on. The pistol was reliable and very accurate. Just after finishing the work, it was traded even for an AR-15. I still miss that one.

Frame to slide fit was perfect, 3# trigger with no creep, replaced all springs so function was never an issue. I hated the small sights and was going to replace them with BoMar adj but never got the chance before it was traded.

shorthair · 06-25-2005, 10:59 PM

At least I'm not the only one with an Auto-Ord.....
This one started out Milspec, the finish is hard chrome. It's been accurized (frame peened/slide tightened), match bushing, Novak rear/Gold Cup front sights, Ed Brown thumb safety, etc.
Accurate, utterly reliable, faithful companion for over 12 years....

Neil · 06-26-2005, 11:24 PM

Danny......And I think all of you guys have really nice collections.
