Good looking gun. Probably could have removed the Colt stamps on the barrel, but there's no denying what it is regardless.
Curious, I've seen plenty of customs with CCH frames that didn't fit as well as all blued guns as if they were fit together then polished separately. This Reeder gun has that fit issue, but I've seen it on other big name gunsmiths as well. Then again, I've seen plenty of factory guns that have perfect fit on blue/CCH guns. So, did Reeder or his CCH guy fit the gun then do a separate final polish (I realize CCH only goes to 400 grit or so, so it would make sense)? I'm just wondering what accounts for this phenomenon from a production standpoint.
That's one of the better looking Reeder guns IMO.

Doesn't cost any extra to put some *light* on the item being photographed.😁 You'd think Reeder could produce better pictures. Not like you have to fool with light meters, f-stops and film processing these days.

I think the best grip frame to cylinder frame on a CCH gun was on a 2nd gen Colt New Frontier. You could't even hang your figernail on the edges.

I've got a 1905 Colt Bisley with CCH frame and it's the same- seamless transition.

While no perfect, I've seen worse transitions on bigger named smiths.
