If you or someone close to you admires truly fine firearms and exquisite craftsmanship, here's a fully engraved masterpiece that belongs in the collection of a true aficionado. The breathtaking beauty of this presentation grade 1911 coupled with the limited availability (a maximum of forty pistols per year) will help ensure its continued collectibility and probable investment value.
Each Les Baer Presentation Grade 1911 is actually a fully equipped Baer Premier® II which has been enhanced with the addition of these special features:
Minutely detailed hand-chiseled engraving, an old world art form rarely seen in today's high tech world;
Special Charcoal Bluing on all polished surfaces, which have all been hand prepared with ultra-fine 1200-grit material;
For contrast, a rich Nitre Blue is used on the pins, thumb safety, slide stop, grip screws, mag catch lock and hammer;
The deep Charcoal Bluing is complemented by real ivory grips;
The handsome "LBC" engraving on the top of the slide is inlaid with gold;
At your option, your name or the name of the recipient can be engraved on the slide with the legend: "To (Name) by Les Baer";
Each pistol comes with a special presentation box.http://www.lesbaer.com/images/cover-gun3.jpg
For any collector who deserves a very special "Thank You" for a job well done — or as a personal reward for your own hard work — this is the pistol that will be the crowning touch to any firearms collection.
