So I started this journey years ago thinking what I wanted in CCW. What I settled on after thinking and deciding what direction to take I ended up with jewel.
Caspian arms fullsize frame and officers slide comp barrel full length guide rod ect.
The big thing was NO SIGHTS, flat topped knurled which actually gives a rough trough like sight. Now for the final steps it will be high polish blue on the flats and matte blue everywhere else.
Let me know what u think

I think it’s pretty well thought out. Lacking sights is not the detriment some may imagine if one practices the point and shoot technique often…it’s more muscle memory and eye-hand coordination anyway. In a self defense situation, those factory or aftermarket sights on most pistols don’t really get “seen” when the adrenaline is flowing wide open for us non- operator, low speed-high drag average Joe’s who aren’t John Wick.

Totally agree. Draw, point and shoot at 20-30 ft is my routine for the most part.
