It would be great to have one place to browse through ACW pictures, so please post what you have. Both pre and post Cabot guns are welcome!

My small collection of customized LB Concept 8, customized S&W PC lightweight round-tail, plus Anomaly. All commanders.

Speaking of ball cuts, just took this shot this evening.

My goodness, what a pair. Love these and love that the Quantico doesn’t have an ambi safety, I know it’s minor but I hate ambi safeties on a 1911.

I wish the Q was ambi and the PE wasn’t lmao. Especially since the PE will need to be refinished if I swap to only strong side safety.
For reasons I can’t explain, I kinda want to put a Chen safety on it

Happy new owner, thanks to @Sparky87 . Got it home, took it all apart. Everything looks really nice. Was damn near exactly how I would spec one, was very happy to find a used/unfired one. Will probably try and track down a gold front bead in the future. I now know the frame scallops are not even noticed other than looks. Never seen one in person until today.
Factory Alchemy mags don't seem to drop free, but my 47d's do. I'm glad to add this to my collection, was in my plans after reading all these good and bad post about Alchemy. I like how Rob @RCSchauland and Eli @AlchemyCustomWeaponry conduct buisness. "Probably" be my last 1911 for awhile. I'm sitting pretty now.

Congratulations, great S/N. As an owner you'll probably start get to know the different guns as individuals, at least the more famous ones.
I have the Elite model and it is great. Enjoy.
Anyone mind posting a pic looking down the sights with a gold bead?

I love F.O., but just ordered my prime elite with the gold cause it felt right.... 😬

My first Prime which I really want back had the older gold bead on it. It was nice and big and super easy to pick up and I loved it but the new gold beads I’ve seen posted seem to be a lot smaller.

I’ve had gold beads on other guns like Wilson’s EDC X9L and just didn’t care for it as much, mainly because my eyes just couldn’t pick it up very well compared to the bigger gold bead or a bright yellow night sight or FO sight.

The older ACW gold bead was my all-time favorite gold bead of them all...

I could kick myself for letting mine go, I’ve reached out to the current owner to let me know when he gets tired of it lol

Haha, I have a PE with one that I let go and I'm hoping that addict will sell it back to me as well one of these days.

I wish they'd go back to them!

Me too, the old gold bead was definitely the best gold bead in the game.
