Here's the list of work done to my stock STI Ranger II:
Replace rear sight with HD Extreme Service rear in plain black, replace front with tritium sight
Face of barrel flush with slide and recrown with recessed crown
HD Extreme Service ignition set with Commander hammer, Duty/Carry trigger job
Fit ambidextrous thumb safety of my own design/configuration.
Fit 10-8 slide stop, countersink slide stop pin hole and recess pin
Machine frame for EGW mag well, heli arc on, dress out and blend to frame and grips. Shorten grips to match magwell
Legacy Custom MaxRamp MSH, scallop to match chainlink pattern on front strap
Serrate rear of slide, extractor & ejector 50lpi to match rear sight
HD Extreme Service oversize firing pin stop
Narrow front of slide for Hi Power cuts
HD Carry groove grips, black G-10
HD Extreme Service extended mag catch
Refinish all in matte IonBond DLC
I used an Ed Brown ambidextrous thumb safety. I slimmed the left side safety back slightly, then cut the right side safety back to nearly USGI style. This gives me enough to use in an emergency, but it's small enough that it's out of the way. I really like the way it turned out.......I like the way the entire pistol turned out! John is truly an artisan.
The comparison shows how the OAL of the STI grip frame is the same length with the welded-on magwell as a standard 1911 without a magwell. For comparison is my SAI TRP that John also did.
