Hello,
I have recently added this pistol to my collection and thought I would share. This is my 2nd Colt/Clark pistol. I also have a Colt .38 Special Kit Gun built by Mr Clark Sr in 1966. This long slide is stamped 8 78 on the underside of the slide indicating Mr Clark built it in August 1978. I had it out to the range for the first time today and I'm very impressed at how soft it shoots and the accuracy with my light target load is superb. I found this in a small LGS on consignment and it was very lightly used. Very tightly fitted and smooth as silk is a Clark trademark and this pistol is no exception. I couldn't be happier!

pretty... wasn't the old man the father of Mrs. Jerry Miclek(?spelling)... have never owned one of their handguns... but I've never heard an unkind word about them.

That beauty should be capable of sub 2" 50 yards groups . Show those fine photos off at that 1911 forum and you may drive some of those guys crazy !!
Have you made contact with Clark Custom to see what they have to say about yours .

Yes , Jerry Miculek ( I think this is correct spelling ) married Kay Clark , Jim Sr's daughter , now Jerry is part of the family by marriage . The third generation of the Clark family are carrying on the business.
I have only one gun accurized by Clark's Custom Guns , a Ruger MKII that is a magical thing to shoot, it puts a smile on my face and a song in my heat when I shoot it.
Those 38 special wadcutter target guns were the utmost in NRA Bullseye Match shooting when I was doing it in the 1970's , could only dream about owning one back then. That's a real nice one !
