Glenn Beck voice off. Excellent choice of features, to my thinking.

The flush fit and crown of the barrel is fantastic! Excellent weapons.

Thank yall very much for the compliments.

Beautiful weapons. I take it and trust that Nighthawk has ended those issues with reliability they once had?

Simply steller art peices.

Bill,
Like I said the Talon was a Talon 2. It would not run. Jammed all the time. It had one of those sti recoilmaster systems in it. I think that was the deal. I was going to send it back a 3rd time, when I called Craig and told him it was still acting up he said that since I had another Talon 2 on order (the first one in the pics) why not let him build the troubled pistol into a fullsize for me. So thats how I ended up with the fullsize. And to be honest it had to go back for a new slide as the first one on it shot a one hole group but the fit was terrible. Side to side clunked when shook. Now it's all good and still shoots wonerful.

i dont like 2 tone 1911.however the black slide and gunmetal gray frame look really nice.Shiny chrome/SS and black/blue slide just dont look good .i like your custom NH much better than the origonal because of that.

[Trumpet]

Very Nice! You done good. ;)

If I was in the market to buy another premium 1911 I'd probably try a Nighthawk too. They seem to be getting lots of good press lately. Good products and service hopefully forces other 1911 makers to take notice. I like how they made the slide stop flush against the frame like my SA Pro.

not to steal any thunder... but my Talon looks almost exactly like yours. Mine has a Bull Barrel appears to be about the only difference.

Here's mine...
