Title: New Covert Pics
Post by: 55spartan on March 14, 2011, 06:32:57 PM
Here are a few pics of my new Covert with a pair of VZ grips on it.  Love this little pup, what a lethal piece of jewelry.

Very nice pistol!  :o  What finish did you decide to go with?

Looks like Wilson Armor-Tuff finish to me.

Very nice. I like the all black look with the black cherry grips. It gives I nice touch. :D

Sweet.  Thanks for the pictures.  A Rohrbaugh with a whole lot of Wilson love on it.  Very nice.

You guys are right this pup has been Wilsonized inside and out.  This pup is pictured with his big brother here, the Wilson Ultralight Carry.

They like to go out on the town together with daddy.

I have one of the IMI Timber Wolf .357 Magnum pump carbines coated in Wilson ARMOR-TUFF ® (OD Green & Black), and the coating has proven to be surprisingly durable.

spartan.  Excellent looking Covert as well as the Wilson Combat.   :)  You have done well!

Nice Wilson.

I have a CQB that has the Armor-Tuff finish. I love it. I don't carry it much, so I don't know how it holds up to the wear and tear.

I may have the Armor -Tuff finish applied to my next PUP.

Adam.  That'll be a good contrast; from shiny to black.  I'm still partial to shiny, though; but hey, this is your gun!    :)

I have two chrome Cogan PUPs. They have Matt rounds and brushed flats. I think I need a change on the next one.

Who knows I have to call AP&W to see what other options they offer.

You'll definitely make the right choice!
Title: Re: New Covert Pics

You cannot go wrong with a Rohrbaugh and custimization by Bob Cogan.
Title: Re: New Covert Pics
Post by: kjtrains on March 14, 2011, 08:51:16 PM
I keep leaning toward Robar on that one.  I like the insides coated; love the chrome by Cogan, however.
Title: Re: New Covert Pics
Post by: Z on March 14, 2011, 08:56:35 PM
I may try the NP3 finish after Cogan does the checkering.

I am undecided on finish.

Either NP3 or Aromr -Tuff. Who knows. I have some time.
Title: Re: New Covert Pics
Post by: kjtrains on March 14, 2011, 08:57:41 PM
Yep!  Take your time and decide.  Both are excellent.
Title: Re: New Covert Pics

I'm very pleased with the NP3 finish on my pup but the next pup will get something different. (Not Black Though) ;D

What tricks do you have up your sleeve John? ;D

Thanks for the compliment Wolverine.

I am just partial to black because I do use my guns as PDW's.  Something about shiny just screams display case, which is OK also.

It will be a while before the work is done on the pup, but it will be worth the wait. ;D
Title: Re: New Covert Pics
Post by: Z on March 15, 2011, 01:07:05 PM
Any Hints?

Some of this and a little of that, and maybe one of those. ;D ;D

Is he using two right grip panels again? ;)

Bringing this thread back up with a question:  The VZ black cherry grips pictured on page one on a Covert are very dark and look great.  However, on the VZ website the black cherry grip pictures look more red/orange and would not, in my opinion, look well on the Covert.  Those of you who have ordered black cherry, how to they really look?

My VZ grips are like your first description and not red/orange.

Thanks John...I went with the carbon fiber...love the look of the darker red but I'm not much into bling anyway and VZ never answered my inquiry about color change.
