    @slovan beautiful piece I like what Brown is doing with the American flag serrations and the use of the Chen magwells.

    Thank you! The Chen magwell is pretty sweet. I like how it doesn't add any length to the grip of the pistol. I see you have it on your new pistol as well. You should post a pic of it here.

    Much to love about yours as well, except for the rail. I'm not a rail guy unless it's on a rifle.

    I've got a few things in the works that I think you might appreciate. I'll tag you when they are ready to reveal . . . . .

Absolutely one of my most accurate shooters. Might have something to do with the 4.25in barrel. I find it balances well.
