From parts to perfection.

Final 1911 assembly after DLC, hand-polishing the internals, and a full oil bath.
Then… test fire time 💥

Lots of take-aparts, tweaks, and re-assemblies behind the scenes so it runs flawless. She’s a Beast!!

VP Legacy

This project features a JEM/Valor frame & slide, mated with a Kart NM barrel in a “tactical match” setup. Sights upgraded to a Chambers RDSM optic plate setup w/ buis and a Trijicon RMR.

Frame is configured with 25lpi front strap, a 25lpi StanChen Gen 2 (frame mod) MSH/magwell one-piece, and paired with VZ G10 Gunner grips. Lastly, this project is highlighted by a finely tuned system to include the smoothest mechanical action I’ve built to date.The DLC finish with polished internals with a matte/satin-polish exterior makes this beautiful piece look timeless.
