I've got some grips from Doc, too. Two sets, only one of which I'm allowed to post for now.
Gotta get my pro camera setup in gear and take a pic of the one pair I'm allowed to post ![]() In another thread. ![]()

Well, Navman sent me an email today. It said:
Quote:
We never had a chance to pop it. Here's what he had for me: ![]() Those grips are by Sarge, courtesy of my very generous and good friend ![]() I also have a pair of ![]() ![]() ![]() Everything on this pistol is custom. Here is custom front checkering by Navman. I've learned to like the flat triggers. This one is tuned to about 3.5#. It's meant for carry, so has been carefully dehorned by Navman. ![]() The rear of the slide has been serrated and the MSH and grip safety are nicely stippled. The rear sight was custom milled from bar stock by Navman. ![]() All the internals were selected by Navman and I. To be fair, I knew what I wanted for frame and slide, and Navman recommended the rest with some help from me. I learned a lot from the process. Navman is really patient and helpful. It's a WC barrel, guide rod, and bushing on a Remsport forged carbon steel frame and a naked Caspian carbon steel slide. Most of the internals are WC and EGW with a few others thrown in. The front sight is 14K gold bead, which my old eyes pick up quite well. The gun points beautifully. Finish is Ionbond. The pistol is incredibly tight. I'll be taking it to the range tomorrow, but Navman tells me it shoots to POA at 15yds. Photos cannot do this pistol justice. Other than a woman, it's the most beautiful thing I have ever held. Range report with dirty pictures as soon as I can get some rounds through it. Tom
