Anybody have a "Fancy" out on the town or going out gun?

[Doug M.]

I have a Commander sized 1911 on a Caspian frame with a custom serial # - my Bar #. I don't carry it, but it is a "show piece". (I don't show off my firearms as a rule, but I did show it to one of my assistants who is a shooter and looking for a 1911. She thought the serial # was cool.)

One of these Colts would do

Colt Custom Combat 10mm. Plain Jane features from Colt's custom shop. Electroless nickel is factory. I added the grips, Pachmyer mainspring housing, and full length guide rod.

Fancy, huh?

Most likely anything with a boot grip. Seeing as how we're going for fancy, we'd be shooting with pinky extended anyway ... why waste unused grip space?

I bought this one to make a few bucks on, but can't seem to let it go.


Usually backed up with a 1940 not very fancy 1911A1 in the truck.

Sweet! I have a factory nickel model 38, made about 1983. Wish mine looked like that...

Bought this at Tulsa yrs ago, it looked different then most 625's. It's the front gun, Larry

Wow only a??? JOVINO AND A BANK NOTE!?!?

 

[JohnRippert]

Closest thing to a BBQ gun I own is this nickel 13-3 with Culina's in American holly.

Erocksmash, Bank Note and a 3 1/2" 25-2 I had made by Andy Horvath. Just traded the 25-2 away for a Bullseye 1911 that's a tack driver. Love the Bank Note, it's engraved but not with swirls like standard engraving. Oak leaves would be OK as engraving, Larry

I have a few that may qualify for this category. A Mod. 624, round butted post factory, a Mod. 66-2, 2.5" and my EDC, a series 80 Colt Officer's Model.

Here's my dress up rig, a Colt Commander 9mm with Ivory and El Paso Saddlery floral holster.

I used to own this one.

I don't particularly think it's too fancy....but the first thing my wife said when she saw my Kimber was "wow that's fancy". So i'll go with what she said.

Oh sure, why not......
