Congratulations my friend, she's a beauty. Look forward to hearing about the debut range trip.

Oh, it was my pleasure to help, glad you found the right pistols for you.

Beautiful pistola!

Lovely piece, . Nice as can be. It is a beauty. I love commander sized pistols. I bet it shoots even better than it looks. Win Win. Dennis
