Navigator for Burgundy Micarta scales

[STR]

And also from Brian I have another Navigator SS to redo. This time in Burgundy Linen Micarta.

Both these from Brian are for orders with no pocket clips.

Brian let me know if you want them threaded anyway just incase though and if so you might make a point to tell me what orientation.

Thanks

Hi Steve, I must be confused but I thought I specified Ti Lowrider clips for both Navigator2 and Lava (on the papers I submitted with the 2 knives) both anodized blue jean blue....the Lava with RH tip up, and the Navigator2 RH tip down (like Jay's)....
Hey Steve, please check your email, thanks...

I did not get the clips with the knives. So I figured these were the ones that were to requested without clips.

I'll look. I have only pulled them out to check them in. I'll read the note.

And finally made some progress here also. Got all the parts separated out shown here all bagged up. Also got them drilled out to the new sizes needed for the 1/8" barrels I'll use in the new body and started my low rider, then moved on to trace out my patterns on the Micarta sheet in the burgundy color.

Don't mind the wax pen writing on there. That rubs right off. Next step will be cutting out the new scales. It will be later on though.

thanks for the update STR... I found the vertical play on that Navigator2 a little excessive, did you think it was "within normal limits" for that folder?

 

[STR]

Borderline but I'm hoping to make that a 'non issue' with the new clothes. We'll see if I can have my way with it when I get there.

Made some progress here today as well.

hey thanks for the update STR

No problem. Soon as I get my scanner to working again I'll have some others to add. I'm getting close on yours at this point. If I have my way they'll be on their way home to you Monday or Tuesday next week whether I can scan further pictures or not. Thanks for your patience.

Got the two posted on the other thread just now. I wanted to let you know that the play is still evident on the little Navigator but it does appear to be the type of play that I can adjust out so I think before all is said and done with this one I can at least tighten it up better and at best it will be locked up solid like the Lava is which is perfect.

thanks STR

Ok I got the play out of the lock and it seems to be fine as it is now. I don't much care for the action though and I am going to try to swap out the washers. I noted that one of the original washers was torn but didn't think it would affect it as it has. Once I get the action where I like it this one is done.

Ok action is all fixed up. We'll get some pics up in the morning and they'll be on the way home. I see a couple spots I need to bead blast but otherwise they are finished up at this point. Just minor touch up is all I need now.

By the way Brian. Let me know if this address is different or if I can print the labels using this one.
Thanks
