Rick,

I like the idea of a neat, tidy, compact handgun that is a handgun (not a sawed off rifle) in all respects. That's mainly why I rejected electronic sights--makes any handgun unwieldy. Also that's why I like my 1911 with recessed S&W revolver sights. It's much more appealing than any other 1911 including my Gold Cup and several with buried Bo-Mars.

I am a retired ME and I do have some ideas. I have never been a machinist but my dad was one. I appreciate the complexity of machining hardened parts and getting everything just right on the setup. I tinker, but wouldn't try anything complicated that might screw up a good gun.
