PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING - IMPORTANT MESSAGE - PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING
Please note that the forums in this category are to be used to ask questions or to show us pistols from these manufacturers. They can also be used to ask questions about the parts of a particular pistol from one of these manufacturers, as long as the question relates to the original parts.

  • If your pistol malfunctions and you want to ask for help on how to troubleshoot it, post your question in the "Gunsmithing and Refinishing" forum, not in this one.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market parts, these questions should go in the "Parts - Grips" forum, not in the manufacturers forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about after-market magazines, these questions should go in the "Magazines" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about holsters, those questions should go in the "Holsters" forum, not in these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about conversion kits, those questions should go in the "Conversion Kits" forum, not these forums.
  • If you want to ask questions about which ammo to use with your pistol, those questions should be posted in the "Ammo" forum, not these forums.

Messages with questions for after-market parts, magazines, holsters, conversion kits, ammo etc. will be moved to the proper forum and a warning will be issued.

IMPORTANT: In Photo-threads, each post should contain at least one picture of your own. Quoting a previous post, does not make your post compliant with that requirement. Photo threads are NOT for chatting.

Colt Royal Combat Cmndr 45acp 1 Of 400

Looks like Talo is going to come out with another limited edition. Suggested retail is about $1,399 I believe. I saw it listed on a distributor's website and they had it shown as Series 1991 Commander Model O4691RCC. Looks pretty, but I wish it were a 9mm!

Very nice! But.........How does one jewel a Grip safety? .........and........why? That and the hammer ruins it for me........yes, I guess I must be the negative naysayer.

But it sure beats dragons and unicorns on the slide.

Most grip safeties quickly show scratches and rub marks on the sides, so jeweling it would prevent the gun from showing wear in that area from merely handling it. I don't really like the looks of the jeweling, but it beats a large patch of bare metal from where the safety rubs on the frame.
