That cleaned up real nice...I'd be proud to carry that around.

Excellent job, I would love to carry thhat bad boy.

All I can say is "wow"!! Amazing...must be a real joy to handle. I see something superb like this and I keep thinking that one of the 3 1917's I have, the one with the roughest finish, is just gonna have to undergo a major change someday. All I gotta do is find a bucket of money lying about.

What do you do for a holster for that? I mean they never made one with a snubbie barrel.

I had Tom Dyer at Saguaro Gunleather in Kingman AZ make this one for me. Same Colt, different grips.

Here's Tom's link. Saguaro Gun Leather - Home

You'll see this same pic below on his website. He's a good guy...I've had him make three holsters thus far.

You have to have them custom made.

I agree 100%....That is bad to the bone...I want one.

That is BEAUTIFUL. Bad to the bone indeed. I've been keeping my eyes open for a 1917 that can be built into a snub almost like that. My ONLY difference will be leaving the fixed sights in place. Is the finish hard chrome?
