      Outstanding. Hilton's a great guy and great gunsmith. It's definitely a shooter and not a safe queen.

        You got that right! Anything that gets passed up for more than 5 range trips gets sold immediately. Even if I love it.

          They look nice, but that's a lot of money for "hand matched" (not fitted) parts.

          Then again, I never did understand the 10-8 appeal. Either way glad you are getting what you want!

              I am interested in these custom guns but am uninformed about the aesthetic workmanship.

              Would you be able to take a picture of the magazine well and the grip safety fit when you get it in hand?

              Thanks!

                  2nd run.

                  But it's been ran through the ringer and has been tweaked to suit my needs.

                      Sure will. Maybe Piedrarc could accommodate in the meantime?

                          These 10-8 Operators and the Warren Tactical Operators are beautiful pistols! I was super close to putting my $$ on a Warren build at the end of last year, but instead found an early Delta Elite I always wanted, and funded my Railgun build. Maybe next time, because I still have the itch for one.

The full length dust cover rail makes a world of difference in the "when I run out of bullets I'm going to beat you to death with the pistol" look that causes bad guys to run in fear, and lesser men to feel inadequate. It looks just plain beastly and the extra heft up front does help manage recoil a bit better. Plus, an angel told me that when God called JMB to heaven it was to build him a full rail 1911!

                              Awesome man congratulations. I've heard how rare and difficult these are to find. One day maybe...
