The paint is KG Gunkote Mystic Blue and Anodized Black.

Suppressor sights, but no threaded barrel? 🤔

Seriously, nicely done. (y)
Thanks, man.
The slide's RMR cut. Not sure if I'll put an optic on it, but the tall sights are for co witness in case I do.
 
Did you modify the trigger guard? I don't remember a P80 being rounded in front. More like the 80% Arms frame.

Yeah, I rounded it. I also shortened the beaver tail, rolled all the sharp edges of the frame and added a slight palm swell.
Smith and Wesson M&P was more the look I was aiming for on the frame.

taking those knobs off the guard was always a desire i had too. Didn't do so until I NEEDED to fit into a Safariland 7360.

Your piece is functional art..real craftsmanship and epitomizes the pleasure, besides using it, of PMFs. Solid!

 
That's sweet op.
I usually don't like a bunch of extra stuff and I am never gonna like holes in the slide.
But this one looks great.
 
Think it goes without saying but Dave's finish work is amazing. To get a polymer frame as smooth as a metal one is difficult. Unbelievably beautiful work, outfreakingstanding!

The guy is an artist! Always perfect color matching and balance of design. Marvelous! The kind of person you hand a project to and just tell him to go do it. Don't give him any instructions or wishes. It will come back marvelous.
 
How did you get rid of the stock stippling? Also very clean build love it
Give @Dave a day or so. Perhaps he'll divulge his secrets... :D
BTW, Welcome Aboard! :) Feel free to look around at the various threads and topics. The search feature is also very robust.

Thank you for the compliment, man.
On this one I put epoxy in the factory stippling, then sanded it flat, because I knew I was going to use grip tape. If I was going to stipple, I would've only sanded -epoxy or paint doesn't work well with stippling.
Hawkeye, a well known member of this board, he taught me most of the stuff I do, and everything I know about stippling. I have some stippling projects in the works.
