A wait a little over two years and now the waiting list is even closed. They had not made floral carved ivory grips in over 20 years, and ivory is becoming scarce. Thanks to Colt expert R L Wilson, Steve Fjestad ( Blue Book) and Brent Turchi ( Colt executive) for steering me through this., and Colt's master engraver Jan Gwinnell who went beyond the norm. It exceeded expectations. This may be one of the last true Colt engraved custom works for the foreseeable future.

Bruce, I have a CSMC Model21 that was engraved by Bryson Gwinnell. He engraved for the US Mint, Colt, Winchester and CSMC that I am aware of. I wonder if Bryson and Jan are related?

Bruce, I tried to email some pictures to you at bday@daylaw.us. I received a notice they could not be delivered. If this is the wrong address email me at bmarson@verizon.net and I'll send them again.
