Are you still taking in SIGs to be upgraded? Both the Sigs and Smiths you have worked on for me have been exceptional, and on time.

When I left GGI, I decided it would be best not to work on Sigs so that I wouldn't be competing with Bruce's business. So short answer, no I'm no longer working on Sigs. Sorry.

Thanks guys. I'm not sure how much I'll be posing here, I honestly don't have much time for forums anymore, but I will try to post cool historical gun builds like this one from time to time.

That is exceptional craftsmanship. Thank you for taking the time to share the pictures.

I hope you are able to add it back to your collection.

Nice work, Flork. I enjoy looking at artisan builds. The melt makes it look broken in.

I wonder if you had anything to do with this one?

It's hard to say for certain, I left GGI at the end of September 2009, if it was done before then, I could have had a hand in it.

I guess my question is, "Did you get the gun"?

I think you are part artist and part gunsmith and I’m not sure which one you’re better at. That is an amazing job you did.

Very nicely done. The frame adjustments/beveling really set it apart.

I'm in contact with the owner, but he still has it.
