Reloaded Gold Cup pics

[Greg Derr]

This late model Colt Gold Cup was in for some upgrades and refinish. It was a pure factory stainless. First the front strap was high cut and serrated. The barrel bushing was replaced with a custom fit EGW, barrel crowned. The standard grip safety was replaced with an EGW. Mainspring housing (original was plastic) was replaced with a steel one and radiused on the heel. The hammer and sear are E2 barstock parts. All the rollmarks were flattened and the lines straightened before being treated with hard chrome. Magazines were hardchromed also.The grips are off the rack Kim Ahrends until the owner can decide on custom wood.

I like the old school trigger. All good!

I absolutely love the look of a flush cut bushing and crowned barrel. Someday I will have this done to my Dan Wesson. Great work as usual, Greg!
