New Volkmann Precision Combat Carry 9mm
Picked up this beauty a few days ago and couldn't be more excited! This is my first custom 1911. Funny thing is I'm not the one who ordered it, but I wouldn't have really changed anything except maybe specified a solid medium trigger, ball endmill cuts, and Luke's Gripwell option. No big deal though, I really love the options on this one and the 3 hole trigger looks really nice on this build. I can't wait to get this thing to the range, but that is going to have to wait until the end of the week due to work getting in the damn way! The original owner never fired this gun because he said it was too pretty. I almost agree with him; almost. I'm gonna shoot the crap out of this thing though! It is extremely tight and pretty dry. Gonna add some Wilson Combat lite oil to it and put some 147 grain through it to break it in. I field stripped it because I just had to see the internals and I was pretty happy. There aren't really any tool marks to be seen and everything looks very well polished and clean. I love the way Luke does the flattening of the slide stop pin as well. There are cool little options and details all over this build like the barrel hood flutes, monogrammed bushing/plug (love this option), and the VP logo in just the right places (in my opinion). The blueing looks outstanding and the CCH has always been an awesome look to me. I also like the nitre blue grip screws; cool little touch. I contacted Luke to get more info regarding the blueing and he said he does his own blueing on the slide. This one has the mirror polish. The CCH is obviously done by Turnbull. I know these finishes will show wear and I'm completely ok with that as long as I'm the one doing the wearing! Alright on with the pics! Let me know what you guys think.
How I received it:
Sorry this pic is a bit blurry. I love this gold bead though; it pops pretty well!
