From Haley's Adaptive Handgun (my screenshots):

I can see:


10-8 rear sight
10-8 hammer? I think Hilton makes these solid duckbill-ish hammers.
10-8 flat trigger
Colt Government slide w/ vertical CS? Weird because he has an external extractor.

Definitely caught my attention and was wondering if any 1911 gurus can provide more insight.

Probably a 10-8 custom by Hilton... he's known for doing complete guns using Caspian slide with external extractor.

Yup that is the pistol Hilton put together for him. That is the 10-8 brass bead front sight on there too

I'm honestly sick of people going all ga-ga over what Chris and Travis are holding each month. They are holding the firearms of whoever pays them more. Buy what fits you and works for you.

I did see a picture of Chris Costa eating a Subway club....I ate one today and then ran a course in half the time as normal.

I grew beard just so I could yell "Bust Em!" with more authority.

I was just reading somewhere that Travis said he only carries his glock 17 with his modifications done. He doesn't actually carry these fancy shmancy handguns
