The pistol you see above is the work of Chris Heinkel, formerly of Heinkel Stippling. Heinkel is now one of the two newest team members of C&H Precision Weapons.  He calls it the G19B Fuck Isis Edition. Now, in case you're worried, here's a look at some of his serious work.

Fier “Kazz” Castañeda is the other new member of the C&H Precision Weapons team. Here's at the sort of thing he does.

Kazz Castaneda - C &H Precision Weapons

Heinkel does stippling, Castañeda does mill work. Together they along with C&H co-founders Buck Holly and Dave Clark (MGySgt USMC, Ret) are building custom rifles and performing quality pistol customization in a beard-friendly HQ in Hendry County, Florida. The addition of Chris and Kazz allow C&H to provide high end custom grip, slide and grip modifications, as well as barrel machining work.

Castañeda has been competing in USPSA matches since he was a child. He worked as a project manager for Altair Training Solutions and has been machining high tolerance tools for over five years. Oh, and he's also the son of (rightfully) well known tactical instructor Cazz Castañeda, whom you've seen before in RECOIL and on RECOILweb. You can definitely say gun work is in his blood.

Heinkel is a long time precision machinist and former Corrections Officer. He is also (as anyone who looks at his work or gets one of his grips in hand) an expert stippler.

Says Holly,

“With the ever-present call for the customization of our client’s daily carry pistols, we recognized the demand and instantly sought the talents and professionalism of Chris and Kazz.  We’re honored to have them as part of the C&H team – and look forward to providing our customers with this new product feature.”

He would also like to advise you that if you are…

“…that guy who likes to run a sharp instrument acrost [sic] his sensitive skin, that's bullshit. Leave that up to your wife and her lady parts.”

If you aren't already familiar with C&H Precision Weapons, it was founded, is owned and operated by 2 former enlisted Marines. One of course is Holly, who spent approximately a decade in the Marine Corps before moving on. The other, Clark, is the former NCOIC (Non Commissioned Officer In Charge) of the famous USMC PWS (Precision Weapon Section) at Quantico, VA. Their specialty thus far has been the USMC M40 series of rifles.
