2nd on my list behind the Vbob.
Don't care for the comanche as it has the ambi safety and hits my hand constantly. If it was single sided like the full size Custom Carry, it would be fine. It shoots great, but the ambi safety kills my grip on it. The Comanche is my moms; she wanted my cbob when I first got it and I told her I would sell it to her when I found a VBOB. I found the Les Baer at a local gun store and she bought that to hold her over until I found the VBOB, which took over a year! Now she mostly has been shooting the ECO 9mm.
Just went thru and installed front sights on parents Buckmark and Ruger Mk2 .22lr, stripped and cleaned the Ruger, and cleaned Sig P239 .40S&W, Sig Pro 2009, HK USP 9mm, CZ75 9mm, DW Eco 9mm, LB Comanche, CBOB, and the full size SA 1911...all my parents guns except my dads Les Baer which he hasn't shot since he bought it from me and I cleaned it then!
The wife's K22 S&W Masterpiece 18-4 screw with orig box came in today !!! Pics don't do it justice ...this gun is beautiful ...for being 57 years old !!!!http://i1327.photobucket.com/albums/...psb0a516ab.jpg

I felt the same way about this FN Browning Hi-Power. I had a smith remove the ambi, cut the stud and no worries about wiping it off with my right hand unintentionally. I got the idea from the late Stephen Camp's book "The Shooters Guide to the Browning Hi Power". Also where I picked up on the Craig Spegel grips. The holster is a Milt Sparks IWB which AFAIC is the best IWB there is.Quote:

Here is that Ruger Mini-14 side folder I've mentioned alongside a Winchester/Miroku 38-55 'trapper.' Both classics but designs from different eras.

This is my latest acquisition. Springfield range officer. Made a knife with some diamond wood handles and like it so much I made a matching set of the gun. Shoots like a million. Sighted it in and put 200 rounds in a hole the size of a baseball standing at 15. From a rest it will shot sub 2 inch groups all day at 25.
