  • Just picked up this gun from Yeti Firearms in Phoenix AZ. The custom nighthawk Counselor is a 3.5 inch barrel carry gun that is every bit of custom. I show you what I like about it as well as comparing it to the Staccato C

    Congrats on the new Nighthawk! I believe in the semi custom category Nighthawk is the best. They are putting out great quality stuff and their customer service is terrific. I have a couple friends that work there and they are fabulous guys, Scott and Bob over there if you want to order something.

    It looks like it has really thin grips - I like thin profile grips for my carry 1911, along with some custom work to give some clearance for a higher grip.
    It's barely noticible to look at, but it feels more natural to hold.

    I dont know if NightHawk is still doing this, but last year I ordered a Shadow Hawk commander, my first in all steel, vs my other 1911's are light weight framed, they were so busy , you could order a pistol with no deposit. I ordered that ShadowHawk commander, with DLC finish, hi cut under grip, trijicon HD sights, optics cut for sn RMR, in .45 ACP, it just came in?

  • @Jasondranoff

    Thanks for sharing.. what grip did you put on the C2? I just got one and I love it but the grip is super thick. Did you get a grip reduction and was it noticable?

    • @JayMacklin
      @JayMacklin  2 роки тому

      I did. Got the grip from Extreme shooters. They took my original and re-stippled it as well as cut down the mainspring for a slimmer grip from front to back.

      I have the counselor. Nothing against the staccato, it’s an amazing firearm. The counselor is smaller. That makes a difference to me. The straight eight sites do take some getting used to.

    • @jaceprovo
      @jaceprovo 3 роки тому

      @@spooky3096 Yes it is but it pretty much has to go back to nighthawk for it. If you were ordering it custom you can have it anyway you want. The normal Counselor is not cut for a red dot. You must order one with the iOS system from nighthawk. Expect to wait 6 to 10 months. 😱 if you already own one and want them to change the sites out for something like a fiber optic, it will probably take 2 to 4 weeks. Custom ain’t easy.
