New Pup
« on: October 24, 2010, 12:07:17 PM »
I got a new pup a couple of days ago it is completely stock only 100 rounds through it.
  I have some plans for it but they will take a while and I hate waiting. :(
So here are a couple of Before pics and when I get the pup finished I will post the After pics.

Great, John; exciting times.  Glad you joined the more than one!   Another Robar, maybe?    :)

I have had more than one on a couple of occasions. ;D
  I can tell you that this one won't be going to Robar, I don't like repeat performances. :o

John,

It looks mint! Congratulations! Are you going to have custom work done to it? You know, that is what I have in mind for Pup #2, but haven't decided about exactly what to do, or who will do it. I am leaning heavily toward Cogan, as they did Corey's R9, which he put up a picture of a few months back.

That pretty much describes what I want done: silver frame, slick up the slide, maybe soften the edges (but not sure about that) and checker the grip frame, front and back, and the front of the trigger guard, as I'm one of those shooters. I was all ready to do it, when R293 came into my life. Now, it must wait a while. But worth it.

OK, John, I will stop guessing and wait for you to tell.    ;D

   It won't be a one shop job, it could be as many as three or four places doing different pieces of the project. If it all comes together there will be some previously unseen things done to this pup. :o ;D

You will need to change the spring every five rounds and your shorts after one. :o ;D ;D

   Well after a couple of days of phone calls and internet exchanges I can see bringing my ideas to life is going to be a challenge. :o
