One thing to consider is the checkering done on the gun you show is what's known as "flat top" checkering and as was discussed here a few weeks ago, is a specialty all it's own. It may be hard to find someone to reproduce that.

If, however, you are happy to have the more common pointed checkering you should have no problem having that done at a reasonable price.

My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.
