This firearm isn't mine,I just take the photos for Dave.

Here's a 1911 recently completed by Dave's Metal Works,it has a Caspian Damascus slide and Caspian Recon frame.The frame is coated in Titanium Cerakote and the small parts in Graphite Black Cerakote.
It has a Bar Sto Precision bull barrel, a Caspian Diamond Bomar sight and Damascus hammer and trigger.

The Damascus really sets it apart. I'm kinda digging the grips too.

Good looking rig.

Holy cow. Beautiful!

Sharp gun! What are everyone's thoughts/opinions on those sights?

 

[Pester]

Thats some craftsmanship! I like it....

 

[220 Swift AI]

Holly nuts! Very nice really like the sights.

I like those sights quite a bit...ghost ring are extremely fast target acquisition but great for precision target shooting.

Fine Damascus pistol...very nice setup. Wouldn't mind having one but to me it's not worth the extra cost.

What steels are used in in the Damascus?

Anyone have any durability tests...30K-50K rounds?

 

[UA_Flyfisher]

That is one gorgeous gun.

 

[WxWatcher]

I'm afraid to know, but have to ask...how much does something like that run?

 

[18Echo]

Winning!!! Pure sex.....

 

[Tevis]

My goodness... And I am not even a 1911 fanboy...

 

[jwsnydes]

Don't tell us what that costs please. I don't want to know!

 

[RTO]

damn that is badass!

 

[mkollman74]

The pistol is gorgeous. I have similar sights on my Kimber, love 'em.

 

[pinkhair]

Really liking those sights, never seen anything like that before.

[tpr564]

Shit that's pretty!

 

[Beef82]

I really thought I'd like it, turns out I don't, certainly unique, maybe if the folds were finer, maybe if the trigger wasn't damascus. Looks great otherwise, nice photography. Who makes the sights? or are they in house?

 

[Genius.]

What sights are those?

 

[Shoottothrill]

Amazing! Deadly Art!

 

[seanh]

the sight is an LPA cut Caspian diamond ghost ring- front sight looks to be a High-Viz fiber optic.

 

[SpenceDaddy]

Wow thats beautiful.... i would like to see something in a little darker color but still thats amazing.

 

[icedragonmx]

I like the look of the Damascus slide! Now to find the $$$$ value.

 

[seanh]

What steels are used in the Damascus?

My only concern is the durability...many times, making something pretty isn't necessarily durable. I wonder what the 5-10K testing will show...how do the lockup areas look when compared to something like 4140 or 416

 

[BIPMaster]

That is gorgeous.

 

[Mute]

Nice! Dave does great work.
