  • I was in Fort Wayne, IN doing some other "work" for Cabot/ACW and I stole some of RCSJR's time to get the story on how Alchemy Custom Weaponry came into existence and how Rob ended up with Cabot.

    Great interview with Dr. Evil and learning ACW's origin story. Now leave him alone so that he can get back to building my Prime Elites! Lol!

    Rob hit the nail on the head. There are always the as good as crowd who justify their lack of enthusiasm or whatever just to save a buck. Shot mostly colts and then kimbers back in the day but after buying my first ED Brown 5’ govt in .45 I quickly learned that my gold cups and custom shop kimber eclipse target, were actually to become my minimum standard. Currently saving for my next purchase which will be an ACW prime govt in Blue with walnut grips. Almost there .

    Rob is awesome. He graciously fixed my UTC 9mm that didn't run right. Uncle Les' guys didn't put it together right. Took time out of his day to call and explain the issues and how to fix them.

    The only reason I don't have a gun built or modified by this man is my peak 1911 interest happened when he closed Alchemy and got hired by Cabot to fix their stuff. Rob helped me out so much on 1911 Forum on what to look for in Custom 1911s that I still use today even on low tier striker guns.
    As soon as he designs a better grip then the old STI on his Quantico Double Stack is when my deposit goes in (or a Commander slide).

    Im overseas, and I only own 1 1911 which is a Nighthawk. If only firearms cost the same as it is in the US, I'd probably own at least 10 of them. Hopefully 1 day i get to own an ACW. Awesome guns!

    Does Rob have direct input on Cabot's craftsmanship? Curious how that relationship between these sister companies work. I tell ya, I'd feel that much more confident knowing he has had input on the development and production on those models.
