Traded an AK I didn’t love for a newer Colt 1911 Competition.
Did not like the blue/black grips and added some walnut.
Once I got my M1A project back, I decided I don’t like the walnut after putting it next to the sexy, Winchester big red birch stock.
Dammit.
Picked up a 16” FNH FN15 and decided to drop some extra parts I had laying around on it. This is what I wound up with. I’m not in love with the Vortex optic but it’ll do for now.
Traded my extra USP45 for this Kimber TLE/RL II. Previous owner switched the black, rubber stocks out for the Stoner CNC set.
It came with the original stocks and I installed them on my Colt MKIV, Series 70 project gun for the time being.
Satisfied with myself, I took a “family photo” with my other Kimber, a Gold Combat II Limited Edition.
It was a good day.
Gunsmith reported the gas port measured .088” and he opened it up to the .093” that I requested.
She’s a beaut, Clark 👌🏻Now she needs a nice sling and a suppressor mount/brake.
She’s also dry as a bone and needs some attention. With the holidays upon us and a race event next Sunday, I’m not sure when I’ll find time for a range day. Hopefully soon.
