So, I joined the ZT0560 owner's club today!!! :D I had the opportunity to carry a 0561 for about a week earlier this year in one of Morrow's passarounds, an I was completely sold at that point. I wanted to wait until the 0560cbcf came out next year, but I got a deal I couldn't pass up. I also got a blue scale from our own Kryptoglow here that glows a BRIGHT glacier blue, and I installed it immediately upon arrival and it looks great! Anyway, here are a few pictures:

I had previously seen where a few people had used spent 9mm casings as overstop buttons. I liked the look, so I used a nickel-plated one and made on for myself as well. I'm not sure if I'll leave it on, as it sticks up proud of the surface a fair bit due to the depth of the primer pocket. I made the web on the back as thin as I could (~0.010"), and it still sticks above the surface about 3/32". It catches a bit when pulling it out of the pocket, so I might just go back to the original (or see about getting a Ti one to flame color).

Hope you enjoy the pics! Merry Christmas!!! :D
 
I have the exact same med. Blue kryptoglow scale. He does great work doesn't he?!
I think the action on the 560 is top notch and like no other.
Love my 560!
I planned to replace my LBS but i kept screwing up the brass with my dremel while drilling it.
Thanks for sharing.
 
I made my lock bar stabilizer from a new 30-30 round. The cut it with a hack saw and it sits flush.

Clip covers most of it

I'm really digging that blue scale, too bad i don't see that design offered anymore at Kryptoglow.

Got my first 0561 today and can't wipe the shit eating grin off my face....LOL

Any other recommendations on a place for scales? I checked Monkey Edge but the don't make any for the 0561.
