This is another conglomeration.
Nearly 10 hours making parts work. Min spec match barrel, Rockslide that didn't like the barrel, P80 frame with a recoil block and rear rails that didn't like the slide and so on. The good part was It was all cut. Didn't have to add any metal which allowed for a super tight fit slide to frame. After the file and stone work it took about 100 shots to get it working right. It is running a 24# captive spring and the barrel is fully supported so the +P stuff just runs with no issues. It is shooting just under 2" at 25 yards with the +P 165 Gold Dot load. That will get better. The load runs just over 1200fps over the chrony. I have used that load on deer with great results. The slide is set up so I can yank the rear firesight then the plate and stick a RMR in place. I am not sure it will make it to the woods this year. Too many in rotation but thought you fellers might enjoy seeing another pocket pistol for deer.

I'll get to shoot it again Saturday. Looks like it's going to be great. It's breaking 500ftlbs and you can stick it in your pocket. After fiddling with it some more it needs a couple more hours of polishing.

It was a bit tricky. .015" Too wide on the recoil block and .005" too thick to even start in the channels.
