I gots an Ed Brown Executive Carry that is a real delight to pull the trigger on.
I already have the ring hammer and the beavertail, along with the Ed Brown trigger. Adding with I already have into the pistol, the cost of putting in a match barrel and bushing, checkering the front and rear straps and getting it NP3+ and putting in Novak sites, I am probably about $500 over the TRP.

Yep, $1380 and I think I still have to supply match barrel and bushing. That work is more than the cost of the TRP. Armour Cote isn't NP3+. $110 cheaper for just "Roguard". Add another $200 for the barrel and bushing and That is $1470. Gunbroker has TRPs for around $1500.
