I started this build earlier in the spring and worked for a bit on it, and then work and other stuff kicked in, so I had to set it aside for a while. It's a Caspian Recon Gov't frame, 5" slide all in Carbon with a 5" Kart EZ Fit barrel and bushing.
Plus most of the rest of the goodies:
Not shown were some parts like the EGW HD Extractor, grip screws, recoil spring guide, etc.
Got the frame and slide fit:
Worked on the barrel, but since the frame/slide back end didn't match up, I wasn't sure where to stop. I left it where it was so I wouldn't ruin the barrel.
Started on the beavertail:
I ground down the beavertail to match the frame tangs on the upper side instead of building up the frame.
Got the trigger and mag release fit and installed:
I also fit the extractor and FPS and Firing Pin, using the EGW Square bottom FPS with a tiny bevel.
And this is how she sat for a couple of months while I caught up on everything else I had to do!
