This is a consecutive serial number pair of hand-engraved Colt Customs in 38 super. They are engraved in Gerry's snake scale pattern with traditional American scroll highlights on the frame and slide. The design on these guns looks 3-dimensional. Notice the belly scales on the bottom of each pistol. This set is encased in a Brookfield presentation case with a French fit royal blue liner. More Pictures...

Colt Custom 1911 in 38 Super sporting Bright Stainless and hand engraved American Scroll on the sides of of the slide and the frame. Colt Customs do not have the Rampamnt Colt logo stamped, so I engraved one on the side. This pistol is also sporting an after-market set of ivory grips.
This is a hand engraved Colt 1991A1 Series 80 that was given to my father years ago by my mother. My mother passed away in 2007 from complications during breast cancer treatment. My wife Mary was going through breast cancer treatment in 2013. I decided to engrave the pistol as Dad's Christmas present with a Colt Custom Shop style engraving. The borders used 30 inches of 24K gold. The Rod of Asclepius is .999 fine silver and the snake used almost another 2 inches of gold. These pictures are pre-bluing. The pistol is being blued by Turnbull Manufacturing.
The hand engraved Kimber pistol pictured was awarded to Ashley Mutschink for his benevolent service to the Bastrop Sportsmen organization. He has served in numerous offices, including President of the organization. The board members got together and purchased the pistol. I donated the engraving. The Bastrop Sportsmen organization raises money for the Bastrop Education Foundation.
