My Supergrade Project

It seems like about a year ago I started a project. (Actually, all I did was pay other people to do things.)

I bought this Supergrade Compact from an acquaintance.

Then I saw this picture. I can't remember who posted it, but I decided to "acquire" the idea.

First I photoshopped the Color Case Hardening onto my pistol.

It looked OK, so I sent it to Turnbull to blend a roundbutt magwell, gold bead front sight, color case harden the frame, and do the Turnbull Blue on the slide and small parts. I ordered grips from Brian Challis

This is what the frame looked like being packed to go to Turnbull

Here it is back from Turnbull before Challis Grips

And then sometiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime later, the Challis grips arrived. They really woke the pistol up!
These pics were taken outside, so you will see reflections of the surroundings in the polished bluing.

Let's block ads! (Why?)
