This is the first part of my report. Pics are coming soon when I get webspace to plant them.
==========================================
My Valtro came in on this weekend. Although I've only had two hours at the range to get accustomed to it, I'll say that this gun is one that I will gladly devote some time to mastering. My thanks go to John Jardine for an excellent job.
The sights were a bit off when I tested, and I didn't have a screwdriver to zero them. I'll have to comment on accuracy later, but it did print a good group size so far. The gun comes back to target very rapidly after being shot. This gun looks like it was built for fast follow-up shots.
The gun took 2 clips to break in, thereafter, there were no ejection problems. I attribute this to the thick grease it was shipped with. Once this was worked in, the slide cycled faster, and ejected flawlessly.
Nice custom touches include front and back strap checkering, slide release checkering, front and rear slide serrations, and some sight work. There top of the slide has long serrations down the length that lead the eye to the front sight. Front and rear sights both have horizontal serrations to help them stand out from the gun.
The Valtro came with a great melt-down job, and you won't find a sharp edge anywhere.
The gun was shipped in a black plastic case with lots of goodies. Included are cleaning supplies, a bushing wrench, 1 mag, a leather tab, and an alien contraption that must be some kind of trigger lock.
