However, to be perfect for a lady it needed a few things like a bobbed mainspring housing and a Wilson Combat<\/a> low safety and short trigger. I turned to my buddy Jerry Dove at Dove Custom Guns<\/a> for the work and said, while you’re at it, can you make it look sexy?<\/p>\n

He did!<\/p>\n

Still an R1 at heart, this is a pistol any lady should love; especially with the fast to use XS Big Dot Sights<\/a> and when combined with Buffalo Bore’s new 185 grain FMJ-FN Low Recoil load at 850 fps<\/a>. A full review of this fine pistol and a tactical rifle also built by Jerry Dove will appear in the next Tactical Special Edition publication from FMG<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You think after my wife sees and shoots this pistol I’ll get a reward?<\/p>\n
