Ran a few rounds through all three today. I hate to say it but I’m loving the dot.

 

[DWdude]

Don't be ashamed, I shoot like an expert with my DA/SA P-01 with a dot. For as great of a job as CGW did with it, it's still not even a decent 1911 trigger. The dot makes a huge difference!!!!

I just put new shoes on my Prime Elite. The pics just don't do this crosscut mammoth justice -- it looks like a deep, bright hippy tie-dye to the eye.

Those grips are awesome! They have so much depth they make your ACW look like a fish tank. Very nice!

Very sweet.
Can I ask, where did you buy these grips? I'd like to buy some, but I'm not sure of a reputable source.
I got a few alchemys I'd like to outfit.

Gunner Products rock! Not much more you can say than that. Looks like he even has an aqua set similar to the ones @Illinois Sucks posted.

I'm a big fan of Boone Trading Co. too. Great people, and great grips.

And ofc you can always get your hands on a great set by @AF_ONE by watching the parts and supplies sale forums, among various other places. Gotta be fast to snag his best sets, but you can pm him too. He totally hooked me up a couple of weeks ago.

Very sweet. That is exactly the type of information I was looking for.👍👍

Yes, he kind of beat me to it, lol. These are Gunner, just got them in a few days ago. I've also bought from Boone Trading. All the good SK sets are immediately snatched up by a relatively small number of guys who apparently sit on their computers 24/7 refreshing the page every half minute while, I dunno ... munching popcorn? 😁

It's a blessing and a curse to be able to have a tab open on your desktop all day long as you work. New post alerts are like mini fixes throughout the day. The deeper the addiction...

Thanks for the offer. I have too many fires burning at the moment. Hopefully ordering its twin (except in 45) before the end of the year.

I know this is unorthodox, I’ve been a lurker and try to not post unless I have something to add, and as a result I can’t PM you or comment on your FS ad but I’d be very willing to purchase that Pro you have. We can communicate via email or phone or whatever you prefer.

 

[Prod1911]

I’m too impatient to have a REAL contribution but for now, just the order form for my (early) 30th birthday present to me. I wanted a PRO but I liked some things that ACW does more soooo…I decided to order an ACW Pro Elite if you will. Can’t wait to get it in and this thread is making that wait worse

Still want the Pro? If interested call me at 21zero6670sevennine9

Outstanding trio.


I'll bet you are enjoying the dot.

Great gun to enjoy it on.


My 🔴 usage began with an RMR...then another.

Since then I've added a couple more...that have clear glass...larger window....and I can certainly say I like the view on those.

You have the Cadillac rds on yours.

Nice piece. I looked at this model (Prodigy), but I already got my holster and I might change its role down the road, so I went with a round trigger guard.

I was on the fence to make mine a two tone, but a few months ago.... I just decided to go all blue but can always do it down the road.

My ACW is for range/competition use. Here is the build sheet.

I hope to sneak to the range tomorrow and start the break in with 230 Hard Ball.

Prime Full Size GOVT 45
Finish - Blue
Front Sight - Red Fiber Optic
Rear Sight - Adjust. Bomar
Safety - Ambi (Ed Brown Slim Tactical)
Trigger - Long set at 3.5#
Barrel - Standard
Slide Stop - Standard
Magwell - Extended Magwell MSH
Grips - Black Checkered
Markings Slide - As Shown
Mags - 2
Ball Cuts Slide - No, Standard slide cuts
Maintenance Kit - Yes
Red Dot Cut - No
Hammer - Ring
Adjust Grip Safety Engagement to 50% let off
Heavy soften high cut for large hands
Hard Fit

I know the extractor looks like it's not fitted with the back of the slide. It has to be the lighting and angle as in real life, its flush with the slide. HA!

Great pistol - enjoy it. For reference, my Prodigy was sent back to ACW for the lower to be chromed and it came back looking fantastic. Something to keep in mind if you ever pursue that two tone option
