These things just keep multiplying.  Here's my new Bob Marvel 45ACP. This has always been one of my favorite Nighthawks, but the first I've owned. I love the feature set and, as always, Nighthawk's build quality and fit/finish are second to none.       Here it is with my other Nighthawks. This company builds some of my favorite semi-custom 1911’s. In fact, I’ve got another on the way next month. Who else is a fan of their pistols?  | ||

What kind of finish is that? Coating or actual stipling of the metal? "No matter where you go - there you are" | |||

That is a beautifully executed pistol, and a very nice collection. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."

I wish I had the "extra cash" for a Nighthawk. Beautiful pistols!! Very Nice! _________________________ Einstein defines insanity as "Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results" | |||

It’s a blackened stainless Nighthawk uses. A few other companies do something similar. Yes sir, hand stippling | |||

Anytime and glad you like it. The appearance probably isn’t for everyone, but I definitely like it. | |||

Nice NH Bac. I've only owned one Nighthawk but it was awesome! One of my favorite 1911s. A near perfect T3.  JEREMIAH 33:3 | |||

Gorgeous. Artwork as much as a perfect functional piece which is the ultimate form of craftsmanship. Love it and its friends too! MPrimo Sigs, Glocks, 1911s, M&Ps ... well, you get the point! | |||

The crown on that barrel is a thing of beauty. Nice pistol! | |||

Sorry for my ignorance and slight thread drift, but who is Bob Marvel? | |||
|
| I swear I had something for this |
Bob Marvel is one of the premier 1911 custom builders. About a decade ago he trained a couple of gunsmiths at Nighthawk some of his secrets and tricks so more people could have access to his work instead of him building one at a time. Some more of those details are here: https://www.nighthawkcustom.co...er/bob-marvel-custom | |||
