    Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song about how he got his Cadillac "one piece at a time." Nice to see something created out of pieces and to have it work. If it was mine I'd have it reblued so everything blended together. How does it shoot?

    Looks good to me....like the round butt with the model 15 barrel. The model 15 is one of my favorite pistols!
    When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!

    I like it a lot. I'd file a taper transition between the barrel rib and frame then re-blue it to match like DG suggested.
    That's a perfect trail gun.
