Any one have any experience with these? Thinking about getting the slide and frame to build one for my wife as a gift.

All I know of them, was a review about them from the Shot Show, and they said that the fit was very good. However, anything brought to the show, that will be exhibited, will be gone over with a fine tooth comb, so what one sees there, may not necessarily be what the consumer sees after the fact.
On new products, I generally wait until I've seen some reviews by tests done on guns, that were bought from a dealer, by someone like Gun Tests, etc., or by the consumers themselves.

Roughedge, when you get to it, post about it on here, to let everyone know how the fit is, and if you run into anything.

Any updates?
PSA had some slides on sale with no markings on them so I ordered on and stuck it on the PSA frame I got a few months back. I was impressed on the fit between the two. Just a tad tight so I may have to lap but probably not. Went online and ordered a Cylinder & Slide hammer and sear, a Nowlin barrel and all the other parts are Ed Brown. Will take a few weeks to get it together and I'll try to post a picture. Has anyone tried the Briley bushing yet?http://www.brownells.com/handgun-pa...auto-spherical-bushing-prod1828.aspx?psize=96 . Looks like a good idea so I may have to get one after I measure my barrel.
