I shot it at the plate range at my club today and it was like cheating!

The gun is number 500 (500th Nighthawk ever produced - NHC 00500) and was made in 2006 but it had gone back to NHC last year for a complete refit and refinish. It is essentially new and looks it! The new test target is a one holer.

These are not my pics ... I actually found pics online of the exact gun before it made it's way to me ... even though I bought it locally. I have swapped out the rear sight to a 10-8 U notch. I think I will coat a flat trigger in black Duracoat and add that later. Otherwise it is pure perfection!





If you must have a Fetish, this is a good one to have!

No freeman shall be debarred the use of arms.
Thomas Jefferson
“Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” Thomas Jefferson
