5.25 shipment

I will be getting my first shipment in of the 5.25 this week. Plans are to do the following upgrades to the first batch- trigger job, extended release, traction grip treatment, refit barrel/frame/slide, full width front dovetail sight, and tungsten guide rod. The 4P model (Perfected Precision Polymer Pistol) is $1,250.00 photos to follow. I still have a few that aren't spoken for let me know if you if you want one. I will be receiving some Bi-tones next week.

I got a few ready to ship over this weekend and took some quick photo's. The red one was done to show some contrast, flat black is just a little boring.

The version I'm doing is the 4P model "Perfected Precision Polymer Pistol" with the following upgrades.
Canyon Creeks- Short and light trigger job- 2# and up
Extended mag release- black or stainless
5/16" Tungsten guide rod
Full width front sight-plain serrated or fiber optic
Grip traction treatment
Frame/slide/barrel refit for better accuracy and reliability
Weight is 30.8 ounces, .2 under the 2 ounce additional weight limit

Guns come in factory hard case with three 19 round mags, mag loader, holster, mag pouch, and two other back straps (no treatment). They are $1,250.00 plus shipping. These guns will have the factory finish, the two in the photos were done for shop use in prototyping for up coming parts. These guns will be perfect for any game one might participate in or just a fun day at the range.

I have two Bi-Tones left, one has the standard slide finish and the second one has had the "Fusion" treatment. Fusion is any base color with the flats polished, which fills in the inlays.

That red version is gorgous. I would love a white slide version down the road, someday.

I just love the 'Fusion' finish !!! I first saw the finish on a 3.8 that you did a grip chop prior to SA releasing the Compact... I was with my brother and saw Mark Craighead on a TV show with it, my brother got a chuckle when I said, "that is one of Rich's guns from Canyon Creek !! "



Was I correct that I saw Mark with one of these below????
