A REALLY Nice 97B is About to Be Born
« on: September 15, 2015, 08:55:00 PM »
We are building a custom 97B for a customer based their input.  Got the frame, slide, barrel and controls back today.  And it's going to be a doozey.  As soon as we have some pics we'll post with the customers approval.

IMHO, probably the most gorgeous 97 we have ever done.

I have a 97B Copperhead and am very curious as to what your customer ordered.  Can't wait to see it.

David:  I want to see this too......I think my 97B-E looks pretty darned good with HC and stippling by APW Cogan, so this must be even better.  And you know its a shooter too based on the targets Brandan shot with it.

All the B-E's are spectacular.  I know for a fact mine is.  Given all the hand fitting, and given how it shoots, its a bargain.   Everyone who loves CZs should have one.

I for one would be willing to settle on a pic of your copperhead  David did for you litespeeds. That'll hold some of us over for a while. I still think a glossy is pert near the sweetest looking CZ there is.

That's really close to the one we are assembling, has a "master blue" with a combo of satin contours.  If you think the old Colt Royal Blue Pythons looked sweet, well  . . . . . .

Raising the bar as always! Sounds like my grail glossy 97b-E might be getting upstaged! Hmmm, not sure how I feel about that.... ;)

I hate seeing beautiful new pistols!  It automatically makes me reach for my too thin left rear pocket. ::)

Here is a picture of my 97B-E Copperhead and also my 97BD Comp Tac.  Doesn't have the bling factor but definitely worthy contenders.  ;)

Yeah, my left rear pocket is empty but my right rear pocket is a little thick and I need to thin it out a little so my back doesn't hurt. Just don't tell my wife.  :-X
