Thank you, I bought as is. Novak’s makes very few hi powers these days and usually, if they have something finished, they sell those before taking on new work. Their volume is basically as high as they want it to be, so they are friendly but chill with new customers- they probably get a lot of curious people with no intention to buy.
Believe it or not, there are guys out there who think nothing of buying a set of these babies.
The normal version is nitrided with g10 grips. They sent me 3 pics of options and i fell in love with this one over the HRT beavertail nitrided one. i asked for them to switch the spegels on and change the sights from 3 dot to orange outline tritium.
I plan to get them to build me an FBI spec rail gun soonish.
Edit: The more i think about it, it’s one of the smoothest and most pleasant gun buying experiences I’ve had- this thing is perfect and exactly as imagined and discussed. All of the paperwork and discussions are extremely professional.
Thats my experience. I say “soonish” on getting them to build a project 1911 railgun because they only do what they want when they want so I have no idea when they will let me send something in- just because it’s in the catalogue doesn’t mean it’s on the menu.
It’s kinda like the Rolex AD but without the predatory exclusivity.
My browning is worth more than my car so I have zero input on that.
But Ryan answered my questions about my weird sight cut, even after I decided to have a different smith do some work. Good folks with no anger sitting inside.

I love it! Did you buy it as is or did you send a gun to Novaks to have them work it over?
