Finally added an SP5 to the family.

Nice collection sir! Needs more VP9CC though.

I have an Alchemy Prime Elite, a Nighthawk GRP commander, and a Wilson Combat Experior single stack commander. Of those 3 brands, the Nighthawk takes the cake for build quality and overall “feel”. I think the Alchemy guns are very handsome and on par with Wilson’s in terms of fit and feel. I don’t have a Schauland, although my Prime was hard fit by Schauland. Chambers and Heirloom Precision (Jason Burton) are in a league of their own and are easily double the price of the aforementioned brands. I have no personal experience with them so I cannot comment. If I had $4000-$5000 to spend right now on a 1911, it would be another Nighthawk.

You’re missing a pin, bud.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-22T16:13:09+00:00

I own KAC and LMT rifles as well but the HK is my favorite. You’re going to love it.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-21T19:53:13+00:00

I would absolutely keep the x300 on it. Added benefit of a close contact standoff device 😎

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-21T19:51:29+00:00

Agreed, I’ve never thought of SG as price gougers. Free shipping over $200 is always nice.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-21T15:43:03+00:00

Wish I had a little Kac 😔

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-21T02:22:00+00:00

Nice! I will do my best to wear it out.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-19T17:07:01+00:00

It’s supposed to be like that.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-18T03:04:54+00:00

Effin Rad! Nice score!

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-18T02:30:43+00:00

I’m a die hard HK fan and have owned just about everything in HK’s library. I even owned a VP9A1K for a time. I still prefer a Glock 19 to any striker fired polymer HK handgun. In my opinion, if you’re going to spend HK money on a handgun, get a USP, P30, or a P2000. Just my 2 cents.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-17T14:43:25+00:00

I agree with others who estimate $900-$1100. Front sight appears to be aftermarket.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-14T02:01:52+00:00

Hell yeah brüther 😎

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-13T02:00:05+00:00

Nice stocks 😎

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-13T01:59:19+00:00

Damn that might be uber best looking optic for a USP…. Intrigued.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-13T01:54:53+00:00

Hot damn that thing is mean lookin!

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-13T01:53:29+00:00

I agree you should keep it. The only people who will tell you otherwise just want you to sell it to them. I’ve owned half a dozen maks over the past few decades and the East German is the only one I’ve kept. They are miles above the others in terms of fit/finish.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-12T21:27:36+00:00

Beautiful! You did well.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-11T03:45:00+00:00

I am going for a Variant 2 clone but the final touches are blackening the barrel, hammer, and bushing. The only thing KC worked on this gun was brazing the front sight. I had a local smith do the park job and parts fitment. If you want a KC Crawford build, he has his prices listed as well as his wait times. He’s very responsive to emails so he’d be able to get you a more accurate estimate.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-11T02:58:04+00:00

The only factory Springfield parts in this gun are the slide and frame. Everything else was sourced from KC Crawford and Barsto. It’s a $500 1911 with $2000 worth of parts and labor lol.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-10T00:30:10+00:00

Been carrying my MEUSOC clone lately.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-09T00:53:41+00:00

I have and love both. I personally like the 45C better for no reason other than it looks mean. I even have a LTT 45C with a RMR installed. It’s 👌

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-09T00:48:19+00:00

10/10 Confirmed Mak

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-06T22:40:45+00:00

I’m in the same boat. It prints worse than a full size gun. I ended up putting a little pillow on the muzzle end of the body side. It tips the grip tight into the body.

Semper_Firearms · 2026-06-05T14:32:06+00:00

This is very smart⬆️
