Hi all,
Though the 1911 is my favorite pistol, and by far the most common “canvas” for customization, the previous thread “Glocks can be custom guns too” got me to thinking…
What other guns do you all consider to be a good basis for custom work?
I have always liked the idea of a custom PPK with a really nice finish. (See other thread by me)—It just has that “classy” Bond-type mystique for me.
I also have an EAA Witness 10mm that I’d like to either send out, or try to work on myself. I really like the grip and design of the gun, but the sharp edges, not-so-great sights, and trigger pull could all stand some improvement.
Other “Non-1911” pistols that I consider neat custom “canvases” include:
1. Browning Hi-Power and clones
2. CZ Pistols and clones
3. Beretta 92 Series (I have an amazing picture in my head that someday will become a reality)
4. Glock (Grip reductions, accessories, etc.—There was that “Caspian” prize glock in one of the Gun-Rags a month or two ago.)
5. Mini-Guns (Seecamps are prized, and custom Beretta Tomcats, 3032’s, 950’s, and NAA guardians have all been featured in magazines—I think they look neat)
So, What is your list of “Non-1911” custom guns?
Oh yea, and who would you have work on/build them?
