    RIA 38 Super part Deux

    Here it is ladies and gents! My updated 38 Super with Wilson combat parts. I was having a lot of FTE with this gun but once I tweaked the extractor it has been flawless. Accuracy is phenomenal for having low combat sights. Oh I also polished the barrel bushing and barrel tip and I added a Colt SS recoil spring plug.
    Here is a before and after picture. I feel like picking up another one so can covert it to shoot 9mm and keep it that way. I think it came out awesome what do you guys think?

      nice, how much was it OTD?

      I am thinking about getting one to convert to 9mm and customize a bit.

        Nice job. I just ordered the 9mm barrel for mine. I haven't had problems with mine as far as FTE. Been good to me so far.

            Thanks fellas! @robcoe OTD it was $560 I know I could have found it cheaper but I had cash in hand so it didn't bother me much. 

              Nicely done.

              Mine has a 9mm barrel that has some failure to feed probably due to the 38 super mag (9mm mags are coming). I was thinking about adding some parts like the commander style hammer and a beaver tail, which parts did you use exactly? and how much did it cost if you don't mind.

                  @InGrAM lol and thx
                  @Batbunny sure no problem the combat hammer came from midway USA #455B hammer value line blue. Beavertail grip safety #429BG government size drop in blue. The hammer was $30 and grip safety $45. These parts required no fitting. 

                            I want to but the 38 super will be the last gun I buy for a while and once I get it, no more shopping for guns I know I know, everyone says that but it is time to start saving for a house and I cant get that done when I keep buying guns lol.
