Lightweight Custom

Purchased a not so good condition Lightweight and thought it would be cool to do a one-off custom. So off to Texas it goes for some coloring. I purchased a new aluminum cylinder from an auction site and I believe by the length of the bushing it had never been fitted and it was silver color (no black anodizing or Martin Hard coat) so I decided to clear anodize it. I also have a spare Martin Hard Coat cylinder that fits - so options here. Anyway, got it back and put it together and shot it yesterday and it's a Gem. Not sure what grips it should wear so I'll change them out as I feel (I'm partial to stag myself) - Here she is.
