hey do you have any experience doing 1911 barrels? i have a kimber pro carry and i cant get the same finish on it that i do on my xd, the machining marks seem to be deeper, and im new to 1911s and so ive been hesitant to do anything more invasive and i would like to have you do it as long as it wont hurt anything

Sean,
I just took pictures !! I ll have them up later tonight. You have one sweet package heading your way right now !!! Wait till you see these pictures !! And while taking pictures I had a brain storm idea. I cant give it away just yet. But expect a one off custom part for the XD coming out soon !!!!! It will be sweet , I guarantee it !!

And thanks everyone for all the kind words.
Todd
